From Rotoworld: Feldman allowed four earned runs, eight hits and two walks while striking out six batters over five innings in a loss at San Diego on Tuesday. Feldman threw 55 of his 92 pitches for strikes while also posting a wild pitch. He was unable to build upon the momentum of his last start when he allowed four hits and no walks over seven scoreless frames against the Cardinals. The veteran has been shaky away from GABP, posting a 1-2 record with a 9.24 ERA over his past three road outings. His next scheduled start is tentatively set for June 19 at Tampa Bay.
Odorizzi gave up five runs — three earned — in 4 1/3 innings against the Blue Jays on Wednesday. He allowed just one run through the first four frames before falling apart in the fifth. The big blow was a three-run jack by designated hitter Kendrys Morales. Odorizzi surrendered five hits and three walks while whiffing four batters. He has a steady 3.77 ERA with 55 strikeouts and 21 walks in 62 innings spread over 12 starts.
