New York Mets DFS SPIN
Max Scherzer struck out a season-high nine batters while allowing two runs — one earned — over seven innings in a win over the Phillies on Thursday. That’s more like it. Scherzer ran into some trouble in the first inning — including an errant throw from Francisco Álvarez — but he held the Phillies’ lineup in check from there. The future Hall of Famer allowed five hits and walked just one while racking up 22 whiffs in his 101 pitches. He closed his outing with a 94 mph on a swinging strikeout against Edmundo Sosa. All in all, it was an encouraging day for Scherzer, who has posted a more Scherzer-like 1.08 ERA over his last four starts. His ERA now sits at 3.21 for the year.
Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Charlie Morton gave up three runs with nine strikeouts over seven innings on Friday in a loss against the Diamondbacks. Morton got off to a shaky start, giving up two runs on three hits in the first inning. He gave up one more in the third, then settled in for four more scoreless frames in what turned out to be a quality outing. Morton struck out nine batters on 11 whiffs. The 39-year-old right-hander will take a 3.62 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, and 72 strikeouts across 64 2/3 innings into a matchup against the Mets in Atlanta next week.
