Mitchell Parker Logs Quality Start Against Arizona
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Mitchell Parker logged six innings of one-run ball en route to earning the victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday afternoon. Parker allowed just two hits and served up four free passes. He struck out two. While he did not provide impressive strikeout totals, he was able to quiet the Arizona offense all afternoon. His lone blemish came on a Randal Grichuk RBI single in the sixth inning. Parker also performed well in his first start of the campaign, tossing six shutout frames (with seven hits) against the Philadelphia Phillies. Last season, the southpaw held a 4.29 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP across 151 innings of work. Given his low strikeout upside, he only carries value in deeper formats. He will look to pick up his third-straight victory over Miami in his next outing.
