6 years agoArizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Clarke allowed three earned runs while scattering six hits over 6 1/3 innings in a start Saturday against the San Francisco Giants, throwing 64 of his 100 pitches for strikes in just his second career major league start. He also walked three and struck out four for his first MLB victory. "To me, it looked like was very effective with his fastball and was grinding to find his secondary stuff," manager Torey Lovullo said. Zack Godley and Robbie Ray have managed two quality starts in 19 combined outings, a mark Clarke has equaled in two starts. The team is searching for a back-end rotation rock, and he appears to be a solid NL-only fantasy option as long as he continues to start.--Daniel Dobish
