Jake Arrieta takes first loss Saturday
by Mike Maher | Sun, Apr 7th 8:04am EDT
Phillies starter Jake Arrieta allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out just one over seven innings in a loss to the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
Arrieta now has two quality starts to begin the season, although striking out just one batter over seven innings is a bit concerning. While still a solid middle-of-the-rotation starter, Arrieta has seen his strikeout numbers drop and his ERA rise in four consecutive seasons, and it would not be surprising to see that trend continue in 2019. He has a favorable matchup up next as he is scheduled to take on the Marlins in Miami.
