He allowed two earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out four over seven innings. Despite the loss, Montgomery's overall season numbers remain strong, boasting a 2.08 ERA and a 0.85 WHIP through his first three starts. However, his low strikeout rate of 4.9 K/9 may be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him for strikeouts.

Jordan Montgomery turned in a strong performance on Friday, allowing just one earned run on four hits over six innings, while striking out three and walking none in the Diamondbacks' 17-1 rout of the Giants.

This outing marked his first start of the season, and he certainly set a high bar. While his strikeout numbers weren't eye-popping, his ability to limit walks and hits was impressive. Moving forward, fantasy managers should keep an eye on his strikeout rates, but his efficiency could make him a valuable asset, especially in leagues that reward WHIP and ERA.
