Phillies' Jerad Eickhoff: Notches quality start, victory against White Sox

Eickhoff (9-12) tossed six effective innings in Wednesday's win over the White Sox, allowing just four hits and two runs while striking out two.

Analysis:

Eickhoff has provided an interesting mix of good news and bad news for fantasy owners lately. Good news: He threw only 71 pitches in an efficient outing. Bad news: He got pulled after six innings anyway despite the presence of the DH in this interleague game. Good news: He's won three of his last four starts. Bad news: Wednesday's outing represents his only quality start in that time. Good news: He's refrained from issuing a walk three times in his last five outings. Bad news: He's given up seven homers over that span, including one in the sixth inning Wednesday that ruined his shutout bid. Eickhoff thus remains mostly a streaming option outside of deeper formats.
