Ivan Nova took a tough-luck loss Saturday after allowing one run over seven innings against the Rays. Nova was solid once again, allowing just six hits (five of them singles) and three walks while striking out eight batters. The only run scored on an RBI single by Kelly Johnson in the sixth inning. Nova now has a 2.49 ERA and 40/12 K/BB ratio over 43 1/3 innings since returning to majors and appears to be making the next step as a pitcher. He should be owned in most mixed fantasy leagues at this point.
