Trevor Williams pitches four shutout innings on Saturday

Trevor Williams allowed four hits and two walks over four innings in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Phillies. He struck out three and did not factor into the decision.

Fantasy Impact

Williams needed 71 pitches to get through his four innings, and hadn't pitched more than four innings since July 7th, so the Mets can be forgiven for taking him out early. He now has a 2.84 ERA and 1.18 WHIP, and although his strikeout rate is sub-par, he's worth a spot start if he gets another turn in the rotation. That is an open question, however, as Taijuan Walker may return this week after dealing with back issues. If he doesn't, however, Williams should have a favorable matchup at home against the Rockies, and is worth streaming.
