Jimmy Nelson strikes out 10 batters in a win on Sunday

by JP Gale | Mon, May 29th 1:10am EDT

Jimmy Nelson allowed seven hits and one earned run over seven innings against the Diamondbacks on Sunday afternoon. He didn't allow a single walk, and struck out 10 batters. He earned his third win of the season with the effort.

Fantasy Impact:

It was Nelson's best start to date as he was able to keep the ball in the park and he didn't issue any free passes. His ERA lowered from 4.20 to 3.83 on the afternoon, and he now has a 51/16 K/BB rate over 56.1 innings this season. He's still a volatile asset, and mixed-league owners should proceed with caution moving forward, although if there's a streak to be ridden now is the time to jump in. His next start will come against Dodgers at Miller Park on Friday.
