  • Chen suffers first major league defeat: Baltimore starter Wei-Yin Chen had his worst performance in the United States on Sunday afternoon in Washington. Attempting to move to 5-0 to start his career in the majors, Chen instead suffered his first defeat as Stephen Strasburg and the Nationals took one of three from the Orioles in the series. Chen dropped to 4-1 on his career as he gave up a season-high six earned runs on eight hits and three walks over a season-low 4 1/3 innings pitched. Chen didn't have the same command he's been pitching with on Sunday as he needed 92 pitches and couldn't get out of the fifth. Chen allowed back-to-back homers to Jesus Flores and the pitcher Strasburg in the fourth, and raised his ERA to 3.35 on the year with the loss.

    Fantasy Analysis
    Chen, who tweaked his right non-pitching wrist on a swing in the game, proved Sunday that it won't be all roses every time he takes the hill for the Orioles. This could have been assumed, but Chen definitely is human. He had not allowed more than three earned runs in any of his previous seven outings in the majors, however, and we feel he should be able to bounce back. Chen has already proven that he has the ability to get deep in games and to limit the damage done against him. Everyone is entitled to an off start and Chen can continue to be looked at in deeper mixed Fantasy leagues heading into Week 8 (May 21-27). Chen makes his next start on Saturday against Kansas City. The wrist should not be an issue. "It was just hurting, my right wrist," he said. "I'm still lucky that I can still pitch. When I swing, it hurts a little bit, but it didn't bother me throwing pitches. It's not a big deal. I just need a couple days rest. It didn't bother me at all (pitching)."
