Latest on Chavez from Rotoworld: Chavez allowed two earned runs while scattering nine hits over seven innings in a loss Friday against the Royals. Chavez posted his first quality start in three June outings, and he didn’t allow a walk for the first time in five appearances. However, while there was a lack of run support, he allowed a season-high nine hits to dig his own grave. He’ll look to get back into the win column Thursday at N.Y. Yankees.
Severino allowed four earned runs, four hits and four walks with six strikeouts over six innings in a no-decision Friday at Oakland. Severino has allowed three or fewer runs in each of his past seven starts, and 11 of his 13 starts overall this season. He still hasn’t lost since May 1, and he is unbeaten on the road across seven outings. Severino will look to get back in the win column in his next scheduled start Thursday against the Angels.
