Chris Bassitt - Page 54 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Tosses seven scoreless innings Bassitt (3-2) earned the win Monday with seven scoreless innings versus the Astros. He allowed seven hits and struck out four.

Impact Bassitt was a little generous with the hits, but all seven were singles and they ultimately didn't hurt his performance. The right-hander struggled in his last outing against the Astros, so Monday's outing was an encouraging improvement. Overall, Bassitt has a 3.12 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 34 strikeouts across 43.1 innings this season. His next start is expected to be Friday as part of a doubleheader versus the Rangers.

The right-hander threw 35 of 62 pitches for strikes before getting chased from what was his shortest outing of the year. He'll look to rebound in his next start Thursday in Seattle.

Impact Bassitt came just two outs away from notching what would've been his second quality start of the season, but he might be trending in the wrong direction of late -- he has given up seven earned runs in his last 11 innings after beginning the season with just two earned runs in 16.2 frames. Either way, the 31-year-old right-hander has a strong 2.93 ERA following his first five starts of the season.

Bassitt has enjoyed a strong start to 2020 with a 2.42 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 19:4 K:BB through 22.1 innings, and he lines up to pitch at Arizona early next week.
