Jake Faria Will Start On Saturday
3 years agoThe Arizona Diamondbacks have announced that right-hander Jake Faria will make the start on Saturday against the San Francisco Giants. Faria made his first start of the year for the D-backs on Monday against the St. Louis Cardinals and impressed, giving up just an earned run on three hits while striking out three and walking none in four innings. The 27-year-old has a nice 3.38 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 23.5 percent strikeout rate for the Snakes, but it has come with the extremely small sample size of just eight innings. Faria has an opportunity to impress again, but he'll be facing the first-place Giants and isn't a good candidate to go deep into this game, for obvious reasons. Consider Faria a poor streaming choice in fantasy on Saturday in his second start of the year.
