Aaron Nola: 7 IP 5 H 1 ER 0 BB 6 K with an ERA of 3.46. Nola had a few hiccups of late but nothing to worry about as evidenced by this start. The guy has serious strikeout stuff and I said a few years ago he can be a fantasy baseball ace.
Jose Ramirez: 2/3 with 2 home runs (20 for season) while hitting .300. Has seen a sizable uptick in power this season along with infield mate Francisco Lindor. Unlike Lindor however, Ramirez has held the .300 average. Very nice.
Carlos Santana: 1/3 with his 21st HR while hitting .251. Only use when hot which is right now.
Luis Severino: 6.2 IP 4 H 3 ER 3 BB 9 K with an ERA of 3.14. Severino gave up three homers which accounted for all three earned runs so again so fears of fatigue just yet.
Corey Kluber: 8 IP 3 H 2 ER 1 BB 7 K with an ERA of 2.63. It really is ridiculous how dominant Kluber gets from May onward.
Christian Yelich: 2/3 with his 16th HR while hitting .286. Nice season for Yelich but we always have that feeling he is capable of a bit more.
Jayson Werth: 2/4 with his 9th HR while hitting .267. Yeah so that much-criticized contact that is running out at the end of this season was not so outlandish after all.
Max Scherzer: 7 IP 5 H 1 ER 2 BB 10 K with an ERA of 2.21. Fresh off the DL, Scherzer dominated as usual. The difference too between Scherzer and a guy with similar overpowering stuff like Chris Archer who give up a lot of home runs is that he finds a way to still win.
Adam Jones: 1/4 with his 25th HR while hitting .279. Hey so Jones hit 25 home runs. When have we seen this before? Like every season of his career.
Justin Smoak: 1/3 with his 36th HR while hitting .289. Would you spend a fifth round pick on Smoak next spring? I don't think you would.
Eduardo Nunez: 2/4 with his 11th HR while hitting .310. Nunez looks like that mid-season pickup who will help the Boston Red Sox win the World Series. You can just feel it.
Mike Montgomery: 7 IP 6 H 1 ER 0 BB 4 K with an ERA of 3.29. This guy should have been starting from the get-go.
Lucas Duda: 1/4 with his 25th HR while hitting .235. Standard operating procedure here.
Logan Morrison: 2/4 with his 32nd HR while hitting .247. The home runs are nice and all but I still have zero pull to draft Morrison next season.
Wilson Ramos: 1/4 with his sixth HR while hitting .243. Thought we would get more here when he returned from the DL but Ramos can swing it no doubt.
Jonathan Lucroy: 3/4 with his 5th HR while hitting .251. Man what a pathetic season from Lucroy. Sometimes catchers lose it overnight when they reach 30. Looks like the case here.
Andrew Heaney: 6 IP 2 H 1 ER 3 BB 10 K with an ERA of 5.6.3. Remember this kid was a top pitching arm in the Miami system. The talent will bubble to the surface like he showed here with the rust continuing to erode.
