Tanner Houck gives up seven runs Thursday vs. Angels

Tanner Houck (SP - BOS)

Boston Redsox pitcher Tanner Houck went 2.1 innings on Thursday allowing seven runs, five hits, and struck out four batters during a 8-0 loss to the Angels.

Fantasy Impact
Houck was far from his usual self on Thursday. The 25-year-old righty was a bit rusty allowing seven runs after having nearly a week off due to being ineligible to play due to COVID-restrictions in Toronto. Across his last three appearances, the would-be starter has had a shift to the bullpen in place of new starter, Garrett Whitlock. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor how the Red Sox use the righty.
