Jaime Garcia allowed five runs over five innings on Tuesday against the Astros. He gave up seven hits and three walks while striking out two. Garcia was credited with the win, and moved to 10-8 on the season.
Fantasy Impact
This was Garcia's third straight win, although it confirmed that the positive results from his previous two starts, which were against the Reds and the Braves, were largely due to the matchup. Garcia should only be used in fantasy leagues when he has the easiest of matchups. Other than that, he's simply too unreliable.
