Nolasco (7-14) allowed no runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five on Thursday in a 2-0 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

While the first half of Nolasco's season with Minnesota was disastrous by almost any measure, he has produced some respectable fantasy numbers in his 10 starts since being traded to the Angels in July. He's now 2-2 in September with a WHIP just above 1.00, and he hasn't allowed a run in 13 innings over his last two starts. The key drivers of his resurgence include a significantly lower home run rate and improved defensive play behind him (.226 BABIP).
