Wheeler allowed a single run on seven hits and a walk while striking out six batters over six innings during Monday's loss to Arizona. He didn't factor into the decision.
Outside of a solo home run allowed to Jake Lamb, it was a smooth outing for Wheeler, which is noteworthy considering the opponent and hitter-friendly venue. After missing all of 2015 and 2016, he looks to be settling in and has allowed just three earned runs over 16.2 innings through his past three starts. His year-long 3.76 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 8.3 K/9 are respectable fantasy marks, too. Wheeler lines up to make his second start of the week against the Angels this weekend.
