Anthony DeSclafani Looking To Extend Shutout Streak
4 years agoCincinnati Reds starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani will make his second start of the season versus the Brewers on Saturday in an intriguing matchup. The Brew Crew are coming off a game where Reds pitchers struck them out 16 times, including 14 by right-handers. They entered the night with the second-highest K-rate in the league versus righties (29.0%), putting DeSclafani in a good spot to rack up some punchouts. After missing the beginning of the season to a strained right teres major muscle, the 30-year-old shutout the Tigers over five frames in a 64-pitch effort. DeSclafani will be stretched out to 80-90 pitches in this one, giving him considerable fantasy appeal against a struggling lineup.
