Samardzija (9-12) turned in his finest outing of the season Monday, allowing just three hits while striking out five in a complete-game shutout win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
The Shark took advantage of a light-hitting San Diego lineup, needing just 102 pitches (71 strikes) to notch his first complete game of the season. The 32-year-old's dominant outing comes on the heels of him clearing revocable waivers, but a trade is unlikely with just three days left before the waiver trade deadline expires. Samardzija has been a touch too hittable this year (4.43 ERA), but his career-best 6.7 K/BB ratio has kept him fantasy relevant as a mid-rotation starter.
