Jharel Cotton shredded in loss to Astros

Jharel Cotton lasted only 4.1 innings giving up a career high 10 hits, six runs (three earned), recording four strikeouts and a walk against the Astros on Friday.

Fantasy Impact:

Cotton couldn't figure things out on Friday giving up a pair of early leads in part due to giving up too much hard contact and some bizarre sloppy play by the A's including catcher Stephen Vogt's two catcher interference calls. As a result, Cotton was saddled with his third loss of the season to go with an unsightly 5.00 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and a 19/12 K/BB ratio. Until Cotton shows an improvement in his control, fantasy owners can move on from the pre-season hype.
