Walbert Urena allowed four hits in five scoreless innings on Saturday as the Angels blanked the Athletics, 7-0.
Fantasy Impact:
Urena did not issue a walk and struck out six to even his record at 5-5 this season. Saturday's start was the first time in his 14 appearances (12 starts) that he did not allow a walk. The rookie righthander has gone 4-1 with a 1.80 ERA and a 38:18 K:BB ratio in 40 innings over his last seven outings. While he has given up a high number of walks (35 in 67.1 innings), Urena is holding opponents to a .212 batting average and has struck out nearly a batter an inning (64 strikeouts). He's lined up to get the Athletics again on Friday in his next start - this time at home.
