From Rotoworld: Corbin was hit hard in a losing effort against the Brewers on Sunday, allowing seven runs on 10 hits in four-plus innings of work. Corbin walked three and struck out three on the afternoon. The bulk of the damage came on one mighty swing by Domingo Santana who blasted a grand slam in the fourth inning. Corbin now sits at 4-5 on the season with a disappointing 5.14 ERA and 1.55 WHIP on the season. He’ll look to get back on track when he battles the Marlins in Miami on Friday.
Urena held the Angels to two earned runs over five innings Sunday for his third win. Urena issued six walks but allowed only three hits and struck out seven, and he was backed by nine runs from the Marlins offense. The right-hander is now 3-2 with a 3.14 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and 27/17 K/BB ratio over 43 innings (five starts, six relief appearances) this season for Miami. He’ll get the Diamondbacks at home next.
