Carlos Carrasco Picks Up First Win On Tuesday
New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco went five innings, allowing four runs (one earned) on seven hits and one walk in the Mets 9-4 win over the Marlins on Tuesday. Carrasco, who did not have his best stuff or a solid defense behind him, struck out four and gutted out those five innings to pick up his first win of the season raising his record to 1-2. Carrasco missed the majority of the season with a severe hamstring strain which kept him sidelined until July 30. He has had a rocky shortened season, exemplified by a 5.88 ERA and 1.28 WHIP over 33 2/3 innings pitched, though he has pitched better of late. Over his last three starts, Carrasco has now posted a 3.12 ERA, an 0.92 WHIP, and a 14:2 K:BB ratio in 17 1/3 IP. Carrasco appears back on track after a rough start and should continue to be deployed by fantasy managers in all formats. His next scheduled start will be a more difficult task when he faces the Yankees at home on Sunday.
