Joe Musgrove a tough-luck loser Thursday

Joe Musgrove (SP - SD)

Joe Musgrove allowed two runs (zero earned) over 6.1 innings in the Pirates' 2-0 loss to the Cubs on Thursday. He allowed four hits, two walks, and struck out six while falling to 1-1.

Fantasy Impact
Musgrove pitched well enough for a win, but Jose Quintana and the Cubs' bullpen had other ideas. Musgrove hasn't allowed an earned run in either of his two starts this year, and if he can stay healthy Musgrove could be a solid contributor all season long. He draws a nice matchup next time, as he takes on the Tigers in Detroit on Wednesday.
