  • Saunders gets backing for third win: Diamondbacks pitcher Joe Saunders picked up his first win since April 27 on Wednesday night against the Dodgers. He allowed four runs on seven hits over 6 1/3 innings in the 11-4 victory. The left-hander made it through his first three frames scoreless before surrendering a solo homer to A.J. Ellis. Then in the seventh, he gave up two runs before being pulled for Bryan Shaw, who allowed an inherited runner to score. Saunders also struck out seven with one walk while earning his third win of the season.

    Fantasy Analysis
    Saunders had gone 0-2 with a 7.40 ERA in four starts since his last win so it was nice to see him get back on track Wednesday. He now has 36 strikeouts compared to just 14 walks in 57 innings pitched. The 30-year-old does not put up the numbers to make him an option in most Fantasy formats but Saunders can continue to be utilized in deeper leagues heading into Week 9 (May 28-June 3). His next start is scheduled for Tuesday against the Giants. When Saunders faced San Francisco on May 13, he allowed six runs over five innings in the loss.
