Jackson Jobe Fans Seven, Walks Five In Monday's Win
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jackson Jobe picked up his third win of the season in Monday's 14-2 drubbing of the Red Sox. Jobe pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing one run on three hits (including a solo home run) and five walks with seven strikeouts. He also hit a batter. The 22-year-old came into the season as one of fantasy's top prospects, and while he is 3-0 in seven starts, his performance has left some things to be desired. He owns a 4.32 ERA with a 1.47 WHIP, a 7.29 K/9 rate, and a 5.40 BB/9 rate in 33 1/3 IP. Walks were an issue at times throughout his minor-league career and have carried over to the big leagues for Jobe. His next scheduled start will be a decent matchup at the Blue Jays. His WHIP may cause concerns for fantasy managers in roto/category leagues, but he could be considered a start for those in points leagues.
