Velasquez allowed three hits and two walks while striking out 10 over five scoreless innings in a win over the Marlins on Tuesday.
He needed 103 pitches to get through the five frames, but it was a very useful outing from Velasquez after a couple of mediocre performances against divisional foes. The 23-year-old now ranks inside the top 10 in four of the five traditional rotisserie categories, with a 2.42 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, five wins and 59 strikeouts in 48.1 innings. He will face an innings limit this season, but the Phillies have not disclosed a firm cap.
