Reynaldo Lopez

Reynaldo Lopez gave up five runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out six over 4 1/3 innings in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Padres.

Fantasy Impact

Lopez has now sandwiched a couple of lackluster outings around the All-Star break. The righty did at least register six punchouts Tuesday night, but he's now surrendered nine runs on 14 hits over just 9 1/3 innings between his last two starts. Lopez is in the Braves' rotation for the time being, but he's been better in a relief role this year and may end up back there soon.

Reynaldo Lopez will start Tuesday’s game against the Padres.

Fantasy Impact

Lopez will be making his first start post All-Star break. He has posted a steady 3.60 ERA across three starts in July.

Reynaldo Lopez allowed four runs on five hits and one walk while striking out three over five innings in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Coming in off a pair of solid outings, Lopez made one big mistake in Saturday's start, serving up a three-run homer to Lars Nootbar with two outs in the first frame. Lopez went on to give up just one additional run across the next four innings, but the Braves' bats were unable to bail the righty out. Lopez has been pitching well for the most part since rejoining the Braves' rotation, but he's yet to bo beyond five innings in four turns.

Reynaldo Lopez allowed one run on just three hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings in Monday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

Fantasy Impact

Lopez was excellent again for the Braves on Monday, surrendering just a single run over five frames for the second consecutive start. The veteran righty was long gone by the time the bullpens decided this back-and-forth contest in the 10th inning. Over three starts since returning to the Atlanta rotation, Lopez has now posted a 2.08 ERA and 0.92 WHIP across 13 innings. He could be a real fantasy sleeper for the second half.

Reynaldo Lopez allowed one run on just two hits and one walk while striking out six over five innings in Wednesday's 5-1 win against the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Lopez's second turn since returning to the Atlanta rotation was arguably his best all-around effort of the season. The veteran righty surrendered a single tally in the opening frame, but that was it, as he shut the Cardinals down over the next four, needing only 69 pitches to get through five innings. Lopez is now sporting a 3.31 ERA and 21.0 K% through 20 appearances (seven starts) on the season. He will draw his next start Monday against the Mets.
