Nova (5-3) allowed four runs on 10 hits and a walk while striking out a single batter over 8.1 innings during Thursday's win over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

The Braves left seven batters on base, so Nova was pretty lucky to escape with just four runs allowed considering he surrendered 10 hits. Fanning only a single hitter wasn't overly helpful, either. Nova now sports a 2.83 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 4.8 K/9 for the year, and while the lack of punchouts cap his fantasy ceiling, the righty is providing excellent ratios and piling up wins. A tough matchup against the Diamondbacks is up next for Nova.
