From Rotoworld: Moore had nothing while taking a no-decision in Thursday’s loss to the Rockies, surrendering eight runs on 11 hits over three innings. Moore was able to keep the Rockies in the park, but the end result was ugly all the same. He allowed three runs in the first inning, four in the second and one more in the third to put a bow on this lump of coal. The troublesome outing raised his ERA from a bloated 5.28 to an even more ungainly 6.00. Up next on the docket, a road start against the Braves as he tries for a respectable outing.
Teheran limited the Nationals to two runs on six hits over seven innings while improving to 6-4 on Wednesday. Teheran struck out three and walked one on the afternoon. Outside of a two-run home run surrendered to Brian Goodwin in the second inning, he kept the scoreboard clean over his seven innings of work. Up next on the docket, a home start against the Giants. Teheran will carry a 4.86 ERA and 1.44 WHIP into that one.
