Athletics | SP Dallas Braden fans ten

The Associated Press reports Oakland Athletics SP Dallas Braden struck out a career-high 10 batters in his no-decision against the Seattle Mariners Tuesday, April 6. He allowed one run on four hits and a walk in seven innings. Manager Bob Geren said that was the best he has ever seen Braden pitch. “He had one of the best changeups he’s ever had,” Geren said. “He threw many of them and still had them out in front. I know it’s just the second game but it felt important.”

Our Instinct:  Braden pitched like he belonged last night.  Don’t count on this becoming a regular occurrence, but he could provide enough value to be useful at the end of fantasy rotations.
