Zack Wheeler Strikes Out Nine In No-Decision Versus O's
Zack Wheeler allowed one run across six innings while picking up nine strikeouts versus the Orioles on Wednesday. The bullpen couldn't hold the lead and get Wheeler a win, but it was another strong outing from the NL Cy Young candidate. Wheeler has simply been superb this season as he's 14-9 with a 2.79 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 240 strikeouts across a league-leading 206 1/3 innings. His ERA is fully supported by an xFIP of 2.86 which ranks third among all qualified starters and his 29.2% strikeout rate is easily a career-best. No matter how you slice it, Wheeler has been one of the MVPs for fantasy managers this season. He's a must-start option in all leagues despite a tough matchup with Atlanta on Tuesday.
