Fantasy Impact
Arrieta was not himself Monday. He has been up and down the entire year. His stuff is entirely too good to be this type of pitcher. Arrieta has had a Jekyll and Hyde season and has been putting fantasy owners in a tough spot as any start he could no hit a team or allow six runs. Keep starting him as you can't afford to miss those stellar starts.
