David Price

David Price (2-1) allowed three runs on eight hits and three walks with three strikeouts over five innings in a win Sunday against Houston.

Fantasy Impact

Price is still struggling with his control which has been an issue since coming off the disabled list. He owns a 5.14 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 24/14 K/BB ratio over 28 innings in his five starts. At some point, Price should turn a corner and fantasy owners need to be patient for now.

David Price had to deal with a blister issue in his start against the Phillies on Tuesday. He gave up three runs over six innings and walked four and struck out six.

Fantasy Impact

The blister was a known issue before the start as Manager John Farrell said after the game that he didn't throw in the bullpen in between starts because of the problem. Price was able to pitch effectively and it looks like he should be able to go in his next start which will be in Houston against the Astros.

David Price allowed six runs on eight hits over five innings in a loss to the Yankees on Thursday. Price walked four batters while also striking out four.

Fantasy Impact

This was a disappointing outing for Price. He looked great in his previous start when he gave up just one run in seven innings against the Orioles. He was facing a red-hot Yankees lineup in New York so the matchup was a tough one. Hopefully, Price can rebound when he faces the Phillies on Tuesday.

David Price pitched into the 8th inning against Baltimore on Saturday night and earned his first win of the season. He allowed three hits, walked one, struck out seven, and gave up one run.

Fantasy Impact

It was Price's second start of the season and he's now pitched 12 innings over both contests. It's a step in the right direction for the veteran lefty who is coming back from an elbow injury. His next start will be another tought test on Thursday against the Yankees in New York.

David Price will be on a pitch count when he starts Saturday, his second start since coming off the disabled list, Chad Jennings of the Boston Herald reports.

Fantasy Impact

Price threw 90 pitches and lasted into the fifth inning in his first start back from the disabled list. Expect a similar workload when he goes against the Orioles on Saturday. He should probably be avoided in DFS as his price tag is too high for someone who may not make it through five innings.
