Fantasy Analysis
Volquez has lost twice in his last three starts after losing just three times in his first 20 starts. He has allowed four or more runs in three of his last four outings and appears to be in a bit of an All-Star hangover. We would really hate to see Volquez lose his focus since he has been so good this season. Despite his recent rough patch, Volquez remains a must-start Fantasy SP. His next scheduled start is for Sunday against the Astros. (Updated 08/05/2008).
