PostHeaderIcon Fister’s Fantastic Five Games: Majors Update 8 June 2014

Doug Fister-Nationals-01The National’s Doug Fister has pitched 6 games since returning from the disabled list, and except for the first game they have all been fantastic. In those five games (32.1 innings) he is 4-0 with a 2.23 ERA and 0.84 WHIP. And even his season-to-date stats should put him among the league leaders, except that he hasn’t pitched enough innings to qualify. In fact, Fister probably needs another 7 or more 7-inning starts to qualify for the averaged pitching stats leader listing. So, assuming Fister stays healthy and continues to pitch well, it will be another month and a half before his performance shows up among the ERA and WHIP leaders.

At the plate, the Mormon to watch is still Jacoby Ellsbury. With 3 stolen bases last week he inched up on the stolen base leader list from a tie for 6th last week to 4th this week. And Ellsbury was also excellent with the bat, going 12 for 29 (.414) with a home run and 2 walks. His season batting average is up to a very respectable .287.

Bryce Harper, Josh Johnson and Matt Lindstrom remain on the disabled list.
