We want a pitcher

The Kansas City Royals got no pitching tonight. The first three KC pitchers gave up more runs than innings pitched. Starter Luke Hochevar gave up seven runs in five innings, but that was nothing compared to Jimmy Gobble, who gave up 10 runs in one inning of work.

Fantasy Impact: Gobble's ERA soars from 7.99 to 11.31 while Hochevar's climbs to 5.47. The young Hochevar showed some promise earlier in the year, but after this outing it's time to drop him. He offers nothing but an occasional win.
