Frankie Montas Whiffs Eight In Quality Start Versus Padres
3 years agoOakland Athletics starting pitcher Frankie Montas allowed three runs in six innings with eight strikeouts in a no-decision versus the Padres on Wednesday. Montas scattered eight hits and didn't walk a batter as he posted a quality start for the fifth-straight outing. The right-hander punched out at least seven batters in each of his last five starts and is up to 140 strikeouts in 125 innings this season. He's rocking a career-best 13.8 percent swinging-strike rate and has a CSW rate above 30 percent. This implies Montas should continue to rack up the K's and is a must-roster pitcher in fantasy. He's got a juicy matchup in Cleveland lined up next time out.
