Ryan Vogelsong will take Mike Leake's spot in the rotation for the second time on Thursday night at home against the Washington Nationals. Leake was placed on the DL on August 3 with a hamstring injury.
Fantasy Impact
Vogelsong's first start for Leake didn't go so well. He gave up three runs in four innings pitched against the Chicago Cubs on August 7. In six regular season starts against the Washington Nationals, he is 1-2 with a 7.09 ERA. Vogelsong should have better success at home with his second start in five games.
