Down in Houston, Texas last night Mike Fiers tossed a no-hitter as he silenced the visiting Dodgers going 9.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 3 BBs, 10 Ks.  Teammate Dallas Keuchel may think this means one thing, but what you care about are the implications for fantasy baseball.  Sad to say, this changes very little.  Fiers has always been a high risk-high reward guy, and while it is a bit shocking that excelled against a potent Dodgers offense, he could easily turn around and give you a 4 ER clunker next time out against the Yankees.  Sure, he's been on a nice three-game run, allowing just 1 ER in that span, but he's still the same low 50s guy that doesn't have the consistency to feel confident each time out.
