Hisashi Iwakuma's up and down start to the season continues
by John Trupin | Tue, May 17th 4:49pm EDT
Following a no-decision Saturday night, Iwakuma's ERA dropped to 4.38. While the right-hander has had decent success, the rise of Taijuan Walker appears to have usurped Iwakuma's spot as the second best pitcher on the Mariner's staff.
Fantasy Impact:
Like all Mariners' starters, the recent struggles of the depleted bullpen cast a pall on their ceiling's, particularly for leagues that value pitcher wins highly. Iwakuma's effectiveness has always fluctuated based on his health, but he should still be a decent option moving forward.
