What It Means:

The Padres got to Nicolino in the second, fourth and fifth innings, and he had only three strikeouts in his short day of work. He will get a home start against the Colorado Rockies his next time out.

Nicolino owns a 5.17 ERA and 1.54 WHIP through 55 2/3 innings this season. Our models project him to post a 4.76 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in 64 1/3 innings over the remainder of this season.
