Jon Lester allows five runs Wednesday versus Pittsburgh

by Jamie Mellor | Thu, Apr 27th 12:23am EDT

Jon Lester went 5 2/3 innings allowing five runs with 12 combined hits and walks. He struck out five. Truth is that his offense generated more opportunities than the Pirates did but failed to capitalize so he left trailing and took the loss.

Fantasy Impact:

The last two outings have been troubling but his track record suggests giving him some patience. The strong Cubs offense and defense also are an asset that you should account for when evaluating Lester's output the rest of the season.
