6.0 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 0 HR (5/24)
Notes: Brault had two strong outings last week and it’s part of his impressive May, which followed a tough April. In four outings last month, he had a 5.40 ERA and that includes five shutout innings in his last game of the month. He was very bad in his first three outings, though there were some good scouting reports from a couple of those games, which gave you hope for a quick turnaround and that’s what has happened. He has a 2.60 ERA this month and has gone at least five innings in each of his last six starts. He went six innings with one earned run in both games last week. Brault has a 1.68 GO/AO ratio, which is his best mark in three seasons.
