Adam Ottavino Loses Again
6 years agoFor the third time in his last four outings, Colorado Rockies reliever Adam Ottavino blew a lead. Called upon to face the hot-hitting Matt Kemp in the eighth inning of a tie game, Ottavino promptly gave up a solo shot to lead off the inning. He then gave up three more hits and one more run before getting replaced. He'd get saddled with the 6-4 loss after the offense failed to get either of the runs back. Earlier in the season, Ottavino was untouchable, but he's lost his way recently. He's still striking out a mess of batters, so he's still got the untouchable stuff, but owners should bench him until he rights the ship.
