Newsbreakers

October 2, 2009

Doug Fister allowed just one run in seven innings on Tuesday, helping the Mariners to a 4-2 win over the A's at home.

Our View:

In 11 games (ten starts) this season, Fister went 3-4 with a 4.13 ERA in 61 innings. The 25-year-old rookie has likely pitched himself into Seattle's 2010 rotation.

September 25, 2009

Doug Fister was tagged for four earned runs on seven hits over 6.2 innings in Friday's 5-0 loss at Toronto. He had no walks and five strikeouts.

Our View:

Fister had a tough night from the hill, and fell to 2-4 with a 4.50 ERA. He is 0-3 over his last three starts, and gave up 15 earned runs over the span.

September 20, 2009

Doug Fister got knocked around by the New York Yankees on Saturday, as he was touched for six runs on nine hits and two walks over just four innings in a 10-1 loss.

Our View:

Fister fell to 2-3 on the season after Saturday's disastrous outing and has now allowed 11 runs in his last 8.2 innings. He has given up 19 hits over that span as well, including four home runs.

September 13, 2009

Doug Fister allowed five runs to the Rangers on ten hits and a walk before being yanked after 4.2 innings on Sunday. He allowed two homers, only struck out one and was handed his second loss of the season.

Our View:

Since joining the rotation Fister has been very good in all but two starts. Sunday's game just happened to be the second time he laid an egg. He's still a fine play in AL-only leagues and deep mixed leagues.

September 6, 2009

Doug Fister allowed just one run in five innings on Sunday, but got out-dueled by Gio Gonzalez, as the Mariners lost 5-2 in Oakland.

Our View:

Fister is now 2-1 with a 2.79 ERA and 1.11 WHIP in seven appearances (six starts) since being called up on August 8th.

September 1, 2009

Doug Fister only issued one earned run on five hits over 7.1 innings in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Angels at Safeco Field. He had two walks and two strikeouts.

Our View:

Fister enjoyed his best start of the season, and improves to 2-1 with a 2.94 ERA. He bounced back from his last outing, when he was tagged for five earned runs over six innings against the Royals.

August 28, 2009

Doug Fister was rocked for five earned runs on five hits over six innings in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Royals at Safeco Field. He had one walk with five strikeouts, and was tagged for three homers.

Our View:

Fister had a tough night from the hill, and suffered his first career loss over four starts. He has been pitching well, as he allowed two or less earned runs in two of his previous three starts.

August 22, 2009

Doug Fister was solid for the third consecutive start on Saturday, but he did not factor into the decision as the Mariners fell to the Indians 4-3 in 11 innings. Fister went 6.1 innings and allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits while walking one and striking out four.

Our View:

Fister has been pretty good in all of his three starts this season, and at this point it would be worth it for AL-only owners to give him a look. He has a 2.21 ERA on the season, but his upside is fairly minimal. Mixed leaguers might want to keep an eye on him, but it's not time to pull the trigger just yet.

August 16, 2009

Doug Fister held the Yankees to three runs on eight hits over seven innings and earned his first win of his career. He did not walk a man and fanned four in the 10-3 win.

Our View:

Fister has been good in both starts this season and may be worth a flier in AL-only leagues at this point. If he can handle the Yankees' lineup, he's got a shot against the rest of the league.

August 11, 2009

Doug Fister only surrendered one hit over six scoreless innings in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to Chicago at Safeco Field. He had four walks and four strikeouts.

Our View:

Fister pitched well in his first career start, but was forced to take a no-decision due to poor run support from his teammates. He replaced the struggling Jason Vargas in Seattle's rotation, and is worth targeting as a flier for AL-only leagues if still dangling on the waiver wire.

August 9, 2009

Doug Fister has been slated to make his first career start in the majors Tuesday against the White Sox, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:

The 25-year-old hurler replaces the struggling Jason Vargas in the Mariners' rotation. He was 6-4 with a 3.81 ERA over 22 games (17 starts) in the minors this season, and is worth a look as a flier for AL-only leagues.

August 7, 2009

Doug Fister has been promoted by the Mariners from Triple-A Tacoma, according to TSN. Jason Vargas was sent down to make room on the roster.

Our View:

The 25-year-old hurler was 6-4 with a 3.81 ERA over 22 games (17 starts) in the minors this season prior to being recalled by Seattle. His initial role is yet to be determined.
