28 Anthony DeSclafani SP

DeSclafani (7-6) allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks across five innings to earn the loss Monday against the Brewers. He struck out five.

DeSclafani pitched quite well up until the fifth inning, when he allowed a solo home run to Domingo Santana before Christian Yelich followed with a two-run shot of his own. Unfortunately, his pitch count rose quickly at that point and he was removed prior to the start of the sixth. DeSclafani has fallen on hard times of late, allowing 13 earned runs across 13.2 innings over his last three starts. He'll carry a disappointing 4.92 ERA into this weekend's scheduled start against the Marlins.

DeSclafani allowed four runs on eight hits while fanning three over four innings Friday night against San Diego. He didn't factor into the decision.

DeSclafani was knocked around early, with the Padres putting up two runs in the first, one in the third and another in the fourth before the 28-year-old was yanked from the ballgame. Through 17 starts this season, he's accrued a 4.56 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with an 82:23 K:BB across 94.2 frames this season. He'll search for a better outcome in his next start, which is slated for Wednesday against the Dodgers.

DeSclafani (6-3) struck out nine in seven scoreless innings in a win over the Diamondbacks on Friday, allowing three hits and zero walks.

DeSclafani had a season high in strikeouts and threw his first scoreless outing of the year. The right-hander has a 4.46 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in 12 starts this season while sporting a 59:18 K:BB in 66.2 innings. DeSclafani has allowed 15 home runs so far this year but has not surrendered a long ball in his last two starts. With the Reds currently operating on a six-man rotation, DeSclafani would be in line to take on the Giants in a start at home.

DeSclafani (5-3) earned a win and a quality start Saturday against the Nationals. He allowed a run on six hits and a walk in seven innings, striking out a pair.

The righty pitched three one-two-three innings and largely avoided trouble in his other four frames. The solid showing lowered his season ERA to 4.98, but neither that ERA nor his 7.5 K/9 are doing much for fantasy owners. He'll look to build on his performance Friday against the Diamondbacks.

DeSclafani will not take the mound Friday due to inclement weather, Jamal Collier of MLB.com reports.

The Nationals announced that Friday's game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Saturday, so look for DeSclafani to take the mound during one of those contests. Across 10 starts this year, he's logged a 5.47 ERA and 1.35 WHIP with a 8.2 K/9.
