Carmen Mlodzinski throws five solid innings Monday

Carmen Mlodzinski went five innings on Monday and allowed a run on five hits, walked three, and struck out two in the Pirates' 2-1 win over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Mlodzinski's only mistake of the afternoon came with two outs in the fifth when Michael Busch connected on a solo home run to tie the game at 1-1. Otherwise, it was another solid outing for the righthander as he has pitched to a 3.38 ERA in five appearances (four starts) this month. Overall, Mlodzinski is 4-3 with a 3.76 ERA in 11 outings (nine starts) and, while he's not a must-own starter in fantasy, you could certainly do worse as a back-end of your rotation arm. He's scheduled to take on the Twins at home on Saturday in his next start.
