View More NewsJames Paxton allows no runs in season's final start
James Paxton allowed no runs on three hits, walking none and striking out nine over six innings in Seattle's 6-2 loss to the Angels on Sunday. He did not factor into the decision.
Fantasy Impact
Paxton lobbied hard to to toe the rubber Sunday for the Mariners final game of the 2017 campaign, and his persistence paid off. It was his first quality start since coming off the disabled list September 15 for a pectoral injury. The 28-year-old southpaw finishes the year with a 12-5 record while recording a stellar 2.98 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 156/37 K/BB across 136 innings. Now considered the Mariners' ace, the team will look to Paxton to build upon this season's success. Barring injury (something Paxton has had difficulty doing throughout his career), he should make a quality number-one fantasy starter for the 2018 campaign.
