R.A. Dickey (SP - FA)

R.A. Dickey's up and down season continued on Tuesday as he allowed four earned runs through 6 2/3 innings, allowing five hits, two walks and a home run. Dickey had a good knuckleball at some points, though, and struck out seven.

Fantasy Impact
While the strikeout total is nice, nothing else from the start was. Dickey is now 2-6 on the season with a 4.60 ERA. He'll see the Red Sox in his next start Sunday, against whom he's 0-2 this season with a 7.45 ERA.
