Paolo Espino News
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Paolo Espino remained winless on the season when he took the loss in the 8-2 defeat to the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. Espino allowed four earned runs on five hits (two homers) while walking none and striking out five in five innings pitched. The 35-year-old right-hander gave up back-to-back home runs to Orlando Arcia and Ronald Acuna Jr. in the fifth inning. In 41 appearances (18 starts), Espino has a 4.30 ERA (4.54 FIP), a 1.31 WHIP and a 92:22 K:BB in 113 innings pitched for the Nationals in 2022. There's a good chance that he won't have another chance to pick up his first win of the season before the end of the year.
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Paolo Espino pitched poorly in a rain-shortened outing Wednesday, allowing four runs on four hits and a walk in two innings. He did not strike out a batter, and was fortunate to take a no-decision. It's a disappointing final appearance of 2021 for Espino, who had rounded into form with three consecutive strong performances down the stretch. Espino figures to have a shot at the rotation next season, though fantasy managers do not need to prioritize him come draft day.
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Paolo Espino was solid again Friday, as he allowed three runs on five hits and no walks to the Cincinnati Reds in five innings. He struck out two batters and took a no-decision in the 8-7 extra-inning loss. Espino has now allowed three earned runs or less in 15 of his 18 starts this season, though he has just one quality start to his name. The lack of length makes Espino hard to roster in fantasy, but he's a solid innings-eater, and could be a floor option in 2022.
