Leiter didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-3 extra-inning win over Atlanta, giving up two hits and a walk over two scoreless innings. He didn't strike out a batter.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old righty needed 45 pitches (26 strikes) to get his six outs before making way for Keegan Thompson. It was Leiter's shortest outing yet in three starts since being plugged into the Cubs' rotation, but he even his longest outing was only four innings. His 8.68 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 7:7 K:BB through 9.1 IP give fantasy managers little reason to roster him.
