Spencer Bivens Fantasy Stats

San Francisco Giants rookie right-hander Spencer Bivens will make his first career major-league start on Sunday against the visiting division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Bivens made his big-league debut this year and has allowed three earned runs on six hits (three home runs) while walking four and striking out 11 in nine innings in his first five appearances out of San Francisco's bullpen. The 30-year-old's last outing for the Gigantes came on Thursday, when he went only one inning. Bivens has topped out at 49 pitches in his five outings, so fantasy managers should be avoiding him as a desperation deep-league streamer, especially against the potent Dodgers lineup.
