Charlie Morton dominant in win on Tuesday
by Devon Bruce | Braves Correspondent | Tue, Aug 16th 10:25pm EDT
Charlie Morton pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out 12 during Atlanta's win over New York on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Morton was absolutely dealing against the Mets, keeping them off the board and matching his season-high with 12 strikeouts. He induced an impressive 19 swinging strikes and produced an elite 37 percent CSW over 97 pitches. Morton continues to alternate poor starts with excellent in terms of runs allowed but should be rolled out when he starts for his high strikeout potential. On the season he is now 6-5 with a 4.04 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with 153 strikeouts over 23 starts. His next scheduled start is against the Astros on Sunday.
