He gave up six runs on eight hits while striking out seven over 5.2 innings.","spin":"After going 8-1 with a 1.82 ERA in his first 12 starts with the Dodgers, Nolasco has gone off the rails in his last three outings, going 0-2 with a 12.75 ERA during that span and likely burning many fantasy owners who were counting on him during their playoff runs. The Dodgers will need him to turn things around to help them in their own playoff run.","date":"Thu Sep 26"},"fullName":"Ricky Nolasco","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"For four consecutive seasons, Nolasco has sported a real ERA higher than his expected ERA as determined by advanced metrics. He has either been extremely unlucky or there is something hidden in his numbers leading to the elevated mark. Nolasco's fortune is bound to turn, but there is concern that both his strikeout and walk rates have worsened for three straight seasons. With that in mind, Nolasco is best used as a matchup play unless he demonstrates a skills rebound.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":-0.8,"playerRater15DAY":-2.9,"positionRank":43}
