James Shields has lost five consecutive decisions

by Chris Zolli | Wed, Sep 14th 7:47pm EDT

James Shields allowed three runs on four hits in six innings on Saturday, earning a no-decision. Shields is 0-1 with a 8.64 ERa and 2.04 WHIP this month, striking out seven batters in 8 1/3 innings. He is 5-17 with a 6.01 ERA this season and will pitch tomorrow against the Indians at home.

Fantasy Impact:

Shields has four quality starts in his last 10 starts and has allowed five runs or more in five starts during that time span. His poor 5.42 ERA has ballooned to 7.07 in the second half, making him less and less of a fantasy target. Current Indians have a .626 OPS in 214 career at-bats against Shields and he is 3-6 with a 6.25 ERA at home this season.
