Mauled by Cubs McLean (4-5) took the loss in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cubs, coughing up six runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out nine.

Impact The Ks offered a silver lining for McLean's fantasy managers, but it was still a rough outing for the 24-year-old righty, who served up long balls to Michael Busch in the fifth inning and Dansby Swanson in the sixth. The homers were the first off McLean since May 25, snapping a four-start stretch in which he's produced a 1.64 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 22:13 K:BB over 22 innings while keeping the ball in the yard. He'll look to shake this one off in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come on the road early next week in Toronto.

Dazzles in Wednesday's win Mclean (4-4) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing one unearned run on three hits and one walk over seven innings in a 9-1 victory over the Reds. He struck out nine.

Impact The right-hander had walked 12 batters in 15 innings over his prior three starts, but McLean showed better command Wednesday as he tossed 63 of 101 pitches for strikes en route to his seventh quality start of the season, and his highest strikeout total since April 21. He'll take a 3.67 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 97:32 K:BB through 83.1 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Cubs.

Lasts four frames in no-decision McLean did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing two runs on three hits and four walks over four innings against Atlanta. He struck out six.

Impact The right-hander threw just 55 of 93 pitches for strikes as he issued at least three walks for a third consecutive start. McLean has limited the damage during that stretch with a 2.40 ERA, potentially due to the fact that he's given up no homers in that span. The recent control issues have yet to bite the 24-year-old in the run column, but it's likely not a recipe for success long term, especially after he posted a 2.8 BB/9 in his first 11 starts of the year. McLean has a 4.01 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 88:31 K:BB across 76.1 innings this season.

Strong start goes to waste McLean allowed one run on three hits and three walks while striking out five over six innings in a no-decision Saturday versus the Padres.

Impact McLean exited the game with a 2-1 lead, but Austin Warren allowed a two-run home run to Freddy Fermin in the seventh inning. That cost McLean a chance to pick up consecutive wins for the first time this season. After a pair of rough starts in May, McLean has bounced back to allow just two runs over his last 11 innings despite a weak 7:8 K:BB in that span. The right-hander has maintained a 3.98 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 82:27 K:BB through 72.1 innings over 13 starts this season. His 3.4 BB/9 could still use some work, but the strikeout upside more than makes up for it in fantasy. McLean's next start is projected to be at home versus Atlanta, which will be a tough matchup.
