Luis Patino Yields Four Runs In No-Decision
3 years agoTampa Bay Rays pitcher Luis Patino allowed four earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over 5 1/3 innings in a no-decision versus Cleveland on Thursday. He wasn't sharp on Thursday, and most of the damage off Patino came from a three-run blast by Franmil Reyes in the third inning. The Guardians were able to tack on another run-off Patino in the fourth frame to give them a 4-1 lead. The 21-year-old threw 98 pitches, landing 66 for strikes. Patino owns a 5.26 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and a 28:8 K: BB across 25 2/3 innings in 2021. Despite struggling on Thursday, the Rays prospect has a 3.65 xERA and a 24.9 K%. It's unclear if Patino will stick into the rotation or be sent back down to the minors, making him a stash in dynasty leagues formats.
