Adam Wilk Hit Hard By Indians On Saturday; Designated For Assignment After Game
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Adam Wilk struggled with the Cleveland Indians' offense on Saturday. Wilk allowed six runs in 3 1/3 innings of work, striking out two and walking three in the game. Wilk was called up as a spot starter to take the ball in the first game of a Saturday doubleheader against the Indians and was promptly designated for assignment after the outing. Wilk has made four appearances this season (one with the New York Mets), posting an unsightly 9.00 ERA and just eight strikeouts in 14 innings of work.
The Minnesota Twins are expected to recall pitcher Adam Wilk to start the second game of their doubleheader against the Cleveland Indians on Saturday. Wilk has pitched 10 2/3 innings for Minnesota this season, posting a 6.75 ERA while averaging 5.06 walks per nine innings. He's made one start this year, allowing the Miami Marlins to score six runs in 3 2/3 innings of work. There was some talk of starter Hector Santiago possibly coming off the disabled list in time to take the mound on Saturday, but he's not quite ready as he works his way back from a shoulder strain. Wilk is not a fantasy option, but an Indians stack in DFS is strongly recommended for Saturday night.
