Marlins starter Trevor Richards allowed five earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out three over 4 2/3 innings in a loss to the Cubs on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Richards had thrown three consecutive quality starts to begin the season, but it was unlikely that he would be able to continue on such a pace for much longer. Still, he has been impressive to start the season and will take a 3.57 ERA with 21 strikeouts over 22 2/3 innings into his next start against the Washington Nationals at home.
