So Tanner Roark went 7.0 IP, 3 ER, 6 Hits, 0 BBs, 7 Ks against the Braves tonight and I have to hand it to the fellow. He was holding a 9.00 K/9 and 2.52 BB/9 with a 3.24 ERA in his previous eight starts and while the ERA will tick slightly higher, that K/BB is gorgeous. Sure, it's been against weak teams (Braves, Phils, Mets, Brewers, Angels, etc.), but he's taken advantage and there's something to that. Now, this is a nice run n all, but I don't want you to forget his walk rate that's hovering 3.00 per nine with strikeout production that is hit-or-miss through a season as his ERA sits at 4.41 with a 4.10 FIP. That's not something I want to chase next season. Sidenote: This is a terrible headline and I should feel bad. I feel bad.
Let’s see how every other SP did yesterday:
