Kuroda k's 9 in 8.2 as Dodgers win

Source (fanball.com) (SP - lan) | 0 comments.

Hiroki Kuroda was dominant on Tuesday, falling one out shy of a complete game while striking out nine as the Dodgers defeated the White Sox 5-2.

Our View: Kuroda now has a miniscule .95 WHIP on the season, and 30 strikeouts compared to only 11 walks. He is rarely as good as he was on Tuesday, but is still a decent roster filler.

Source (mlb.com) (P - lan) | 0 comments.

A really impressive showing from Kuroda here, who was in command throughout and allowed just two baserunners and one run over his first eight innings of work. He's been somewhat up-and-down since returning from a strained oblique in early June, but this one pretty clearly qualifies as an "up." He'll attempt to replicate this near-spotless outing when he faces the Mariners in Los Angeles on June 28.

News: Hiroki Kuroda allowed four hits in 8 2/3 innings, James Loney hit a two-run homer, and the Los Angeles Dodgers continued to thrive without Manny Ramirez, beating the Chicago White Sox 5-2 on Tuesday night. Kuroda (2-3) made winning without Manny look easy. He allowed only Paul Konerko's second-inning homer and Jermaine Dye's single until there were two outs in the ninth. Kuroda then gave up two more hits, including Dye's RBI single, before Jonathan Broxton earned his 18th save by striking out Jim Thome. Kuroda fanned nine and walked none in outpitching John Danks (5-6), who again received little support at U.S. Cellular Field. [...]

Paul Konerko went 1-for-3 with a solo homer off Hiroki Kuroda in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Dodgers at U.S. Cellular Field.

Our View: Konerko has 10 homers for the season, and continues to lead the Sox with 44 RBI. He extended his hitting streak to eight games tonight as well.

News: Dodgers SP Hiroki Kuroda pitched two-hit ball over six innings and struck out five in his second start off the disabled list Saturday against the Phillies, departing after 94 pitches with a 1-0 lead that was provided by Andre Ethier's fourth-inning homer. His ERA on the season dropped to 1.62 on the season with the performance. [...]

Kuroda throws six shutout innings

Source (fanball.com) (SP - lan) | 0 comments.

Hiroki Kuroda was outstanding on Saturday in the Dodgers' 3-2 12 inning win. Kuroda threw six shutout innings while walking three and striking out five. He did not factor into the decision.

Our View: Kuroda has been very good since returning from the DL, so fantasy owners should jump on him if he is still available in your league. He was the opening day starter for the Dodgers, and as long as he stays healthy he will be a solid fantasy contributor.

Kuroda was left with a no-decision after receiving little run support, but still pitched effectively and appears to be fully recovered from the strained oblique that sidelined him for over a month.

Source (mlb.com) (P - lan) | 0 comments.

Kuroda looked even better on Saturday than on June 1 after missing nearly a month of action with an oblique injury. He has 11 strikeouts in 11 innings since returning, and the shutout effort against a very good Phillies batting order is about as encouraging a performance as one could've asked for. That said, he'll face a tough chore in keeping the Rangers lineup in check on June 13 at Texas.

Hiroki Kuroda allowed two earned runs on three hits over five innings in Monday's 3-2 loss to Arizona at Dodger Stadium. He had three walks and six strikeouts.

Our View: This was a solid outing considering it was his first start since coming off the DL with a strained oblique. He will get stronger with each outing, and should be penciled into fantasy lineups.

Kuroda threw just 86 pitches, and is being brought along slowly as he makes his way back from a strained oblique. Monday's supercharged strikeout tally is out of step with Kuroda's more moderate career 5.6 K/9 average, but he's a solid pitcher in both Major League and fantasy baseball, and it's nice to see him back. He'll take his next turn on June 6, when he'll face the Phillies at Dodger Stadium.
