St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty struggled quite a bit on Tuesday, allowing nine runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out six in three innings of work. Making 2/3rds of his outs via strikeout was nice, but the 27.00 ERA won't do. This was by far Flaherty's worst start of the season, dropping his record to 3-2 and ballooning his ERA to 5.52. One of the safest bets in sports history is that the Cardinals ace will do better his next time out against the Pittsburgh ...

Jack Flaherty Not Projected To Start Until Wednesday rotoballer.com Fri 8/14/20 8:56 PM

But for Flaherty, who remains an elite fantasy option in the wake of his ...

Flaherty's next start hasn't been announced yet, but Sunday in game three against the Cubs might be a good bet.

After his projected start Friday was postponed due to multiple positive COVID-19 tests by his teammates, he draws the start Saturday in a loaded slate. While the righty has amassed a minuscule 1.02 ERA in his last 16 starts, he was bludgeoned by Milwaukee batters last season, yielding eight home runs in just 25 innings. The Brewers have gotten off to a slow ...
