Fantasy Impact

The 6-3 record is not indicative of his struggles this season. Urquidy has pitched well over his last couple of starts however and brought his ERA down to 4.68. But until the 27-year-old can consistently control the strike zone, he should be viewed as a streamable matchup-dependent starting pitcher.

Fantasy Impact

Urquidy improved to 5-2 and has been pretty lucky to get that mark this year. The Houston righty has a 4.76 ERA with just 40 K's across 51 innings this year. Luis Garcia has far superior numbers, but is just 3-3. That's just how things shake out in baseball sometimes. Win opportunities should continue to be there for Urquidy though.

Astros starter Jose Urquidy was obliterated by the Seattle Mariners Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Urquidy allowed six runs, five earned, on 12 hits and two walks across 4 2/3 innings. It's actually a minor miracle he survived into the 5th inning. Urquidy is too inconsistent to be relied upon for anything other than deep AL-Only leagues.
