Michael Lorenzen has best start of season in no-decision Wednesday

Michael Lorenzen allowed just a run on two hits while striking out a season-high seven over five innings in a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Lorenzen retired the first nine batters he faced before allowing a leadoff triple to Pete Crow-Armstrong - who would later score on an RBI groundout - to start the fourth. Lorenzen then allowed a double to Nico Hoerner in the fifth but left him stranded there. The veteran righthander still has an inflated ERA (7.49) and WHIP (1.90) while pitching to a 2-8 record and allowing a .349 opponents' batting average through 15 appearances - 14 starts - this season. However, maybe Lorenzen can build off of Wednesday's start as he will get the Cubs again on Monday, in Chicago.
