MITCHELL PARKER NEWS

Hammered for seven runs in loss Parker (5-10) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, giving up seven runs on eight hits and three walks in 4.2 innings. He didn't record a strikeout.

Impact Milwaukee got all over Parker in the third inning, tagging the hurler for six runs on six consecutive hits to begin the frame. The 25-year-old left-hander also failed to register a punchout for the first time since his April 27 start, and he set a season worst in earned runs. Parker will take a lackluster 5.12 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 66:40 K:BB over 102 innings into the All-Star break, and he's tied with four other pitchers for the second-most losses in the National League.

Handed ninth loss Parker (5-9) was charged with the loss Saturday against the Red Sox after allowing nine runs (four earned) on 10 hits and one walk across six innings. He struck out four.

Impact The left-hander ran into trouble early as Boston scored twice in the opening frame. Things didn't fall apart for Parker until the third inning, however, with the Red Sox scoring seven runs on seven hits and an error. His final line isn't terrible for fantasy managers due to the five unearned runs, and he completed five frames for the fourth consecutive start. Parker has a 4.72 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 66:37 K:BB across 97.1 innings this year, and his nine losses are tied for fourth most in the majors.

Snaps losing streak Monday Parker (5-8) earned the win over San Diego on Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one batter over six innings.

Impact Parker entered Monday having lost each of his past five starts, but he was able to get back in the win column while also tossing his second straight quality start. The southpaw didn't miss many bats -- he notched just one punchout and five whiffs -- but managed to limit the damage against him despite giving up two homers. Parker's lack of strikeout stuff and 4.59 season ERA make him an unappealing option in most fantasy leagues, but he's been able to stay healthy and remain in the rotation for the Nationals throughout the campaign, as he's tied for the team lead with 16 starts.

It's an encouraging bounce-back effort from Parker, who gave up six runs in just 3.1 innings against the Marlins his last time out.
