Fantasy Analysis
Zito hadn't won two straight decisions since winning his final two outings in 2007. He received cheers instead of jeers from the fickle San Francisco fans. Zito has allowed three or fewer earned runs in four of his last five outings and has three wins in that span. He still doesn't have a stellar stat line, but is improving. He remains at best a low-end Fantasy SP. His next scheduled start is for Sunday against the Diamondbacks. Zito is 0-2 with a 6.32 ERA against Arizona this season. (Updated 07/23/2008).
