Cosart allowed two runs on three hits while walking five and striking out two over four innings for a no-decision in Monday's 5-2 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Cosart was making his first start since taking a liner off his foot May 18, so the Padres weren't pushing him in the 87-pitch outing. Regardless, the 27-year-old right-hander has pitched into the fifth inning just once in his five starts and sports a weak 4.5 K/9, ugly 7.2 BB/9 and shaky 4.50 ERA in 20 innings. Cosart would likely be in the bullpen or in the minors if he was on most other teams than the Padres.
