Despite the win, the 35-year-old has allowed multiple long balls in consecutive starts, and at least four runs three times in his last four outings. He'll take a mediocre 4.87 ERA and 6.6 K/9 into Monday's start against the Orioles.","date":"Wed Aug 15"},"fullName":"Marco Estrada","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Coming off an All-Star campaign in 2016, Estrada looked like a decent late-round dart in fantasy drafts, even though his abnormally low BABIP and fly ball-heavy tendencies long suggested that his sub-4.00 ERA wasn't sustainable. Regression finally found Estrada in 2017, as a relatively normal BABIP (.295) coupled with increases in his walk and home run rates were enough to saddle the right-hander with a 4.98 ERA, placing him 54th out of 58 qualified starters. On a brighter note, Estrada finished with his highest strikeout rate since 2012 and saw his velocity hold steady from the season before, though he showed diminished effectiveness in commanding each of his offerings. It might be unwise to write off the 34-year-old entirely, following a nightmarish campaign, but because of the heightened home run and walk concerns, it's more than justifiable to avoid him.","seasonId":2018,"date":"Tue Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":1,"playerRater15DAY":3.6,"positionRank":108}
