Landon Knack To Start On Friday Against Angels
5 months agoLos Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-handed pitching prospect Landon Knack will be called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City to make the start the first game of the Freeway Series at home against the Los Angeles Angels. Knack, who is the club's No. 12 prospect per MLB Pipeline, will be making just his fifth major-league start after debuting earlier this year. In his first four starts, the 26-year-old held his own with a 2.61 ERA, a 0.97 WHIP, 16 strikeouts and six walks in 20 2/3 innings pitched. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues may want to hold off spending too much waiver-wire money on him, though, as he could head back to the minors after Friday's start. However, the matchup at Dodger Stadium against the Halos may be too hard to pass up for DFS gamers given how well Knack has pitched so far in his rookie season.
