Stroman did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two hits and two walks over six scoreless innings against the Athletics. He struck out five.
Stroman has settled into his role as the Cubs' ace nicely, as his current 0.75 ERA is second only to Mariners hurler Luis Castillo. The veteran righty has now pitched scoreless games in three of his four appearances, and he's thrown six innings in each of them. While fantasy managers will certainly appreciate his efforts to date, maintaining this level of performance all year long will be difficult. Next up is a home tilt against the Dodgers.
