Alek Manoah Walks Seven Monday
2 years agoToronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah turned in another poor performance in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Yankees. The 25-year-old pitched four innings, allowing five runs on six hits (including two home runs) and seven walks with three strikeouts. He has gotten off to an awful start to the season, going 1-4 with a 5.40 ERA, 7.00 K/9 rate, and 6.40 BB/9 rate in nine starts. His velocity has not been much lower than last season, but his command has been the real issue. While fantasy managers likely invested highly in him, they should really sit him in his next start against the Orioles. Ideally, they can sit him longer until he shows signs of figuring things out.
