Carlos Torres was tagged for six runs in four innings by the Nationals on Monday.

Denard Span, Ryan Zimmerman, Jayson Werth and Tyler Moore all took him deep. Torres had pitched well in his previous couple of starts, but he was never a very good bet in NL-only leagues. Of course, given their lack of arms, he should finish the season in the Mets rotation regardless of how he performance.

Carlos Torres yielded one run over 6 2/3 innings Thursday in a win over the Phillies.

Torres, who took the place of the injured Matt Harvey in the starting rotation, held the Phillies to just four hits and no walks while notching six strikeouts. The 30-year-old now owns a fine 2.77 ERA and 40/7 K/BB ratio in 55 1/3 innings over four starts and 23 relief appearances this season. He has a found a niche as a swingman with the club and could be worth a look in NL-only fantasy leagues the rest of the way.

Carlos Torres will take the place of Matt Harvey (elbow) in the rotation Thursday against the Phillies.

And with Tommy John surgery looking inevitable for Harvey, Torres figures to keep the rotation spot for the rest of the year. The 30-year-old has a 3.00 ERA and 34/7 K/BB ratio over 48 innings with the Mets this season and could be worth a look in NL-only fantasy leagues.

He struck out two and walked one. Torres replaced Shaun Marcum in the Mets' rotation earlier this month after allowing just one run over 15 2/3 innings while boasting a 14/2 K/BB ratio as a reliever. He surrendered just two runs over 11 innings in his first two starts to enter Sunday's outing with a 0.94 ERA. Washington's onslaught swelled Torres' ERA to 3.13. The 30-year-old righty has never had any sustained success in the big leagues and remains solely an NL-only option.

Torres racked up five strikeouts in the game without issuing a free pass. He left in line to earn the victory, but the Mets' bullpen was unable to hold on to the advantage.
