Sean Manaea Dominates Dodgers Tuesday
3 years agoOakland Athletics starting pitcher Sean Manaea was downright nasty in his Cactus League outing on Tuesday against a Los Angeles Dodgers lineup filled with most of their starters. The left-hander retired nine straight hitters at one point and struck out seven while allowing one run on two hits in 5 2/3 innings. All seven of Manaea's K's were swinging, and his slider was looking nasty. "My sliders over the past two games have just gotten better and better," Manaea said. The 30-year-old has been a popular trade target by several teams this offseason, but the A's may just decide to keep him after his performance on Tuesday. He had a 3.91 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and a career-high 194 strikeouts in 179 1/3 innings last year and is a solid mid-round selection for fantasy managers.
