Bradley Blalock Picks Up First Career Win On Saturday
4 months agoColorado Rockies starting pitcher Bradley Blalock turned in a strong performance on Saturday and picked up his first career win in the Rockies' 9-2 win over the New York Yankees. Blalock, acquired by the Rockies from the Milwaukee Brewers, now has a 3.06 ERA on the season after giving up two ER in 5.1 innings and striking out five. Though he showed control issues by allowing four walks, he was able to avoid danger and tamed a strong New York Yankees lineup. With the Rockies looking to find out what they have in their younger players, Blalock is taking advantage of his opportunity and has pitched into the sixth inning in each of his three starts with the Rockies. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues looking for starting pitching help may want to look at this under-the-radar Rockies starter. He'll look to continue developing during his next scheduled start on Thursday when the Rockies host the Miami Marlins.
