Fantasy Analysis
It could have been a lot worse Wednesday, but luckily for Correia, he was facing one of the worst offensive teams in baseball. Correia continues to be a high-risk starter for the Giants and has limited Fantasy value in NL-only leagues. His next scheduled start is for Monday against the Dodgers. He is on track to be a two-start pitcher Fantasy Week 18 (July 28-Aug. 3) with his second start coming against the Padres. (Updated 07/24/2008).
