Leake went six innings in Wednesday's no-decision against Milwaukee, allowing four runs on eight hits and a walk while striking out six.
EDGE Analysis
He's given up four runs in both of his starts to open the season, and although better times are surely ahead, these efforts highlight the downside of owning Leake -- he pitches to a lot of contact and Wednesday's six whiffs represent about as many as you can ever expect from him. Leake hasn't even parlayed his reliable mediocrity into being much of an innings eater, as he's only cleared 200 once in his career. That said, if you can limit yourself to only playing Leake in his two-start weeks, you'll probably come out ahead of the game.
