Archer took a no-decision in Wednesday's game against the Mariners. He pitched five innings, allowing four runs on five hits while walking four and striking out five.

EDGE Analysis

The Rays' ace dug himself a hole early, as the Mariners capitalized on Archer's wildness (three walks in the opening frame) for a three-run first. Archer has been tough on the Mariners in the past, having not allowed an earned run in his previous three starts against them, but Kyle Seager drew a bases-loaded walk in the first and Seth Smith followed with a two-run single. Wednesday marked the fifth time this year in which the righty failed to throw six-plus innings. He'll take an unsightly 4.75 ERA into his next start in Toronto on Monday.
