Brandon Beachy threw three shutout innings Saturday night against the Chicago Cubs. He allowed two hits, walked one and struck out one.
Fantasy Impact
There was some hope, one year removed from his second Tommy John surgery, that Beachy could regain his 2011 form (169 K's in 141 innings) last year. Unfortunately, things did not go well and he was optioned to Triple-A. 2016 is a new year and Beachy may have to play a prominent role, considering the high number of injuries that the starting rotation has endured. He has shown the ability to strike out batters in the past.
