Jeremy Guthrie was tagged for five runs on eight hits over seven frames in Saturday's loss to the Indians. Guthrie punched out three and walked three on the evening. This game was a pitching duel, with the Royals trailing 1-0 heading into the bottom of the sixth inning, before Lonnie Chisenhall's grand slam broke the game open. Guthrie finishes the first half with an 8-6 mark, 4.25 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 58/43 K/BB ratio in 120 2/3 innings. His inability to generate strikeouts, and propensity for allowing baserunners makes him an extremely risky fantasy option moving forward.
