3 years agoOakland Athletics starting pitcher James Kaprielian turned in his worst outing of the season on Tuesday as he allowed a season-high six runs across 4 2/3 innings at San Diego. Kaprielian cruised through three innings, but ran into trouble in the fourth when the newest Padre Adam Frazier got on base prior to a monstrous homer from Fernando Tatis Jr. The wheels came off in the fifth for Kaprielian as he could not escape the inning, marking only the second time in 13 starts the 27-year-old failed to complete five frames in a start. This one stung, but Kaprielian has been good for fantasy managers this season with a 5-4 record, 3.24 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 79 strikeouts in 72 innings. He'll look to rebound in a good matchup with the Angels on Sunday.--Mike Schwarzenbach - RotoBaller
