David Price allowed four runs on seven hits and struck out five over seven innings in a no-decision Tuesday against the Mariners.

Fantasy Impact: While it shows that Price gave up four runs, the bullpen has to shoulder some of the blame for that. Price had a shutout into the eighth inning, but ran into trouble and had the bullpen fall apart and blow the game when they came in. He is coming off of a dominant start last week against the Angels and had a 15-inning scoreless stretch going into the eighth inning on Tuesday. It looks like Price is turning a corner and pitching well again, making him a strong option down the stretch run.

David Price (5-1) dominated the Astros over 6.2 innings in Thursday's 11-1 rout, allowing just one run on six hits and a walk while striking out 12.

Fantasy Impact: This pitching performance will help to ease the concern of David Price fantasy owners. Price has been very inconsistent this season and in eight starts, he's had four strong ones (two or fewer runs, nine or more strikeouts) and four forgettable ones of five-plus runs. Price needs to string a few more dominant efforts together to help get him back into the elite of fantasy pitchers.

David Price, through the assistance of teammate Dustin Pedroia, is working on a fix to his mechanics that could be part of the reason the left-hander is off to such a poor start this season, the Providence Journal reports. Pedroia noticed Price's hands weren't in sync with his front leg, something that was part of the left-hander's delivery in the past. "I want my hands and my right knee to be connected by a string," Price said Sunday. "My hands have stayed right here, and that's not allowing me to get my full leg lift. It's been about a half of what I'm used to. It gives me no margin of error because I don't have that rhythm." (Source: Providence Journal)

Fantasy Impact: Hopefully, the mechanics fix will help David Price's velocity. His fastball has been sitting at 92 mph, which is three miles per hour less than normal. Price currently has a 6.75 ERA on the season and he is only going to get better. This is a good time for fantasy owners to buy low on Price.

Red Sox manager John Farrell confirmed that David Price is healthy. Price has been getting rocked this year and his velocity is way down. He topped out at 93 mph on Saturday en route to allowing six runs in only 4 2/3 innings as the Red Sox lost to the Yankees. (Source: Evan Dreillich on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Price now has a 6.75 ERA after seven starts and is fortunate to have a 4-1 record on the season. He does have a solid strikeout rate as he now has 53 over 43 innings. If Price isn't injured like John Farrell says then expect the starting pitcher to heat up as he has never been a cold weather pitcher and is adapting to playing in a major media market. This could be a good buy low for fantasy owners.

Price however bore down and retired the next three batters to escape the inning unscathed. Price would retire the next 15 batters in a row en route to his first win as a Blue Jay.

Fantasy Impact: From a pure numbers standpoint, there shouldn't be much of a change between his numbers with the Tigers and with the Blue Jays, other than the possibility of more wins behind baseball's best offensive lineup. Price is moving to a more hitter friendly ballpark, however he is unbeaten at the Rogers Centre in his career, and will look to carry that throughout the season.

Tiger fans braving the chilly night and flurries didn't get much warmer as the Yankees sent 11 batters to the plate in the first inning and scored 6 runs before the Tigers had a chance to retaliate. Price totaled 2.1 innings, 8 earned runs, 3 walks and only 2 Ks. Price didn't make any excuses about the weather after the game. "I don't care how I feel or what the stuff feels like. I have to be able to go out there and get outs," Price said. "That's what pitchers do. That's what the great pitchers do. That's what I did not do today, and that was the result."

Fantasy Impact: There is no reason to panic, Price owners. He is an ace and will bounce back. He is scheduled to face the Twins in Minnesota for his next start. A team he dominated for 8.2 innings and 5 Ks on Opening Day.

The Tigers got the win thanks to their bats. Price didn't do himself any favors by throwing a potentially inning-ending double play in the dirt during the 9-6 win. He received an error. The Indians would go on to score three unearned runs that inning. Price has yet to concede an earned run.

Fantasy Impact: Price was decent, but not his usual dominant self. He struck out six, but also walked three, including a four pitch walk to the nine hitter, Jose Ramirez.

Detroit buzzed as the southpaw was masterful on the mound in a 4-0 victory.Two singles with two outs in the ninth forced coach Brad Ausmus to pull Price before he could go wire-to-wire. A great performance for Price's first Opening Day in Detroit.

Fantasy Impact: He finished with 8.2 IP, 5 hits, 0 ER and 5 Ks and was never really in trouble. He earned 17.33 points for those that rolled the dice with him on Fanduel and 30.5 on DraftKings. A great start for those that plugged him in the lineup, even at his high...price.

The Tigers would hate to lose another ace arm like Max Scherzer to free agency. It only makes sense the Tigers would do everything in their power to lock up Price long term. The recent talks, however, are just preliminary. (Source: Chris McCosky, The Detroit News)

Fantasy Impact: The Tigers named Price their Opening Day starter. He has been happy in Detroit thus far, and is expected to put up great fantasy numbers in his first full season with the Tigers.

Price has been the best pitcher for the Tigers' this spring. He leads the spring with 17 strikeouts in only 12 1/3 innings. His competition, Justin Verlander, has been struggling to find his dominant stuff. (Source: Anthony Fenech)

Fantasy Impact: It is arguable he is a top 5 fantasy pitcher after Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer and Felix Hernandez. There will be plenty of run support with a healthy Miguel Cabrera and Victor Martinez. He is a free agent after 2015 and should turn in some incredible numbers this year.

David Price allowed four runs in two innings of work against the Washington Nationals on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact: For someone who showed great control last year, it's a bit surprising to see Price walk two batters and throw a wild pitch. The Tigers are counting on Price to be their ace this year, so hopefully he was just a bit off this game and will get back to his normal ways by Opening Day.
