Michael Soroka Earns Win for Nationals on Saturday with Solid Outing Against Diamondbacks

After a rocky start to the season, where Soroka’s record stood at 1-3, he managed to snag his first win, improving his ERA from 6.00. This performance came amidst a consistent run of generating 18+ FanDuel points in five consecutive games, highlighting his ability to contribute even when not earning the win.

Despite his 5.61 ERA over 25 2/3 innings, Soroka’s WHIP of 1.21 and a K/9 rate of 8.8 suggest effective control and the ability to rack up strikeouts. His knack for limiting walks, with just five on the season, has been crucial in those situations where precision matters most.
