Recent Update
8/6:Taijuan Walker (6-5) surrendered three runs on five hits while striking out six over six innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Saturday. Walker was excellent through the first six innings, shutting out the Giants bats before giving up three runs on two doubles and a home run in the seventh. Despite the seventh inning struggles, Walker managed to post his third quality start in his last four outings. Despite the solid run, Walker continues to consistently allow home runs, giving up six over his last five starts. If he can't maintain his lowered walk rate, the home runs will eventually catch up to him. He will be a risky option in his next start Thursday against the Dodgers.
