Nationals SP Odalis Perez fell to 1-4 on Saturday at Baltimore and departed after yielding a season-high six runs on 10 hits, walking two and striking out two in five innings. "It was bad," he said. "I couldn't keep the game on the line. It was one of those games where you believe before the game warming up that it will be one of the best games. By the time the game starts, everything is different. It was like they knew what was coming." (Updated 05/18/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Perez has allowed 21 hits in only 11 1/3 innings over his last two starts and is looking more and more like the useless Fantasy pitcher we've seen over the past three seasons. His ERA is still a respectable 4.34, but it's trending upward. Leave him for NL-only leagues. His next start is scheduled for Friday against the Brewers. (Updated 05/18/2008).

Advice
Perez has pitched well this season, but never received much offensive support before Monday. He had received only 13 runs of support in his first eight start, but was backed by 10 runs on Monday. He is 1-3 with a 3.71 ERA.
