With a 1.20 ERA, a 2.44 FIP, and a .232/.271/.321 line against in his last two starts and 15 IP, Patrick Corbin has shown signs of life well into his third season of struggling on the hill in Washington’s rotation, and the Nationals’ southpaw told reporters after he held Miami to one run on eight hits in seven runs last time out before today, he has felt better for a while now even if there weren’t results to support his feelings.
“Like I’ve said, I’ve felt good even before this, even the couple before,” Corbin explained, as quoted by MASN’s Mark Zuckerman.
