Mitchell Parker's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Mitchell Parker was terrific on Thursday, tossing 6 innings without allowing an earned run against the Miami Marlins. Parker did allow two unearned runs on three hits. He fanned five and didn't walk a batter. The 24-year-old has hit a wall after an encouraging start to his career, so this game was nice to see. Parker is lined up for two starts next week, one against the Mets and the other against the Cubs. They aren't terrible matchups, but Parker hasn't shown enough to make him a must-stream. He should be left for deeper leagues.

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Mitchell Parker was sharp in Sunday's win over the Milwaukee Brewers, pitching six shutout innings with three hits allowed to go with three walks and three strikeouts. It was the sixth win of the season for the left-hander who evened his season record at 6-6. Parker's ERA is now 4.06 and he is sporting a 1.19 WHIP. This outing shows a bit of the 24-year-old's potential, but his limited strikeout upside and modest ratios make him a bit of a risky option in most fantasy leagues.

Washington Nationals pitcher Mitchell Parker continued his impressive rookie season with his fourth victory of the season on Monday versus the division rival Atlanta Braves. Parker tossed 6 1/3 innings and allowed five hits, three runs, zero walks and recorded six strikeouts. The left-hander wasn't the most highly touted prospect in a good Nationals farm system, but he has put himself on the map this season with consistent results over his first eight starts. Parker, 24, has yet to allow more than three runs in a start and has gone five or more innings in all but one outing. He also has an impressive 1.11 WHIP. Parker has quietly become an asset for managers and is worth rostering in 10-team leagues moving forward. Next up for the lefty will be a date in Cleveland against the Guardians.
