3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates pitcher Steven Brault (0-3) allowed five earned runs on seven hits and four walks while striking out four across four innings during Friday's 6-5 loss to the Chicago Cubs. He was tagged with his third loss of the season. The 29-year-old yielded five runs, including a solo blast to Michael Hermosillo in the fourth frame. He exited after 80 pitches. Brault has now surrendered 12 earned runs and six walks over his last two starts. The Pirates right-hander owns a 5.61 ERA, 1.60 WHIP, and 18:10 K: BB in 25 2/3 innings in 2021. Brault is scheduled for a home start versus the Washington Nationals next week, but with his recent struggles, fantasy managers can avoid using him as a streamer.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller
