Carrasco (3-9) took the loss Saturday, coughing up six runs on six hits and a walk over 3.2 innings as the Guardians fell 8-0 to the Phillies. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander put up goose eggs for three innings before the wheels came off in the fourth, beginning with a two-run homer by Bryce Harper. It was Carrasco's shortest outing since April 6, and he had given Cleveland at least five innings in seven straight starts coming into Saturday, although with less-than-stellar results. On the season, he sports a 5.68 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 79:27 K:BB through 95 innings. With the trade deadline looming, prospect Joey Cantillo getting a look Sunday and Matthew Boyd (elbow) getting stretched out in the minors, Carrasco's time in the rotation could be drawing to a close, but for now he's scheduled to make his next start at home next weekend against the Orioles.

Carrasco (3-8) took the loss against the Tigers on Monday, allowing six runs on nine hits and no walks with six strikeouts over 5.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco yielded four runs over the first two innings and then two more in the sixth. The southpaw had allowed three earned runs or fewer in five consecutive starts before the All-Star break but struggled despite throwing a season-high 96 pitches and not walking any batters. He owns a 5.32 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 74:26 K:BB over 91.1 innings and lines up for a difficult road matchup with the Phillies this weekend.

Carrasco (3-7) took the loss against the Rays on Friday, allowing two runs (one earned) on six hits and one walk with three strikeouts over five innings.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco battled Friday, but the Guardians were unable to get anything going against Taj Bradley. The veteran leaned on his offspeed offerings for 53 of his 82 pitches and has now yielded three earned runs or fewer in each of his past five starts. He will take a 5.02 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 68:26 K:BB across 86 innings into the All-Star break.

Carrasco yielded three runs on six hits and a walk over five innings during a no-decision Sunday. He struck out four in the win over San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco served up a two-run shot to Michael Conforto in the second inning and gave up another run in the third. Carrasco has delivered at least five innings in five straight starts, registering a 4.67 ERA during that span. He's given up at least one homer in four straight appearances and has been tagged with 14 long balls over his last 12 starts. Carrasco owns a 5.22 ERA with a 65:25 K:BB through 81 innings. His next start is projected to be in Tampa Bay.

Carrasco did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the White Sox, allowing three runs on four hits and one walk with seven strikeouts over six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco allowed a solo home run in the first inning and a two-run home run in the sixth but threw four scoreless frames in between. He registered an impressive 10 swinging strikes on 70 pitches and has logged quality starts in two of his past three outings. He still owns an uninspiring 5.21 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 61:24 K:BB through 76 innings and lines up for a home matchup against the Giants this weekend.

Carrasco allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three batters over five innings in a no-decision against Baltimore on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco was decent in the outing, throwing 63 of 91 pitches for strikes and yielding a modest two runs. He recorded only four swinging strikes and three punchouts, however, and departed after just five frames. Carrasco has exceeded five innings just once over his past six starts, and he has just one victory over that span. The veteran hurler hasn't been much of a fantasy asset with a 5.27 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 54:23 K:BB over 70 innings on the season.

Carrasco (3-6) allowed a run on four hits over six innings Friday, striking out seven and earning a win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco kept Toronto off the board until he coughed up a solo homer to Vladimir Guerrero in the fourth inning. Carrasco entered Friday's game in a rough stretch, going 0-4 with a 5.96 ERA over his previous five starts since his last win May 5. The veteran righty lowered his season ERA to 5.40 with a 51:21 K:BB after punching out a season-high seven batters Friday. With Gavin Williams (elbow) expected to return soon, Carrasco's role moving forward is unclear.

Carrasco (2-6) took the loss Saturday as the Guardians fell 5-0 to the Blue Jays, coughing up five runs on six hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran righty didn't give up a lot of hard contact, as the only extra-base hit off him was a second-inning double by Daulton Varsho, but Carrasco still got tagged for at least five runs for the fourth time in his last eight starts. With Gavin Williams (elbow) likely to be back before the end of the month, Carrasco's time in the rotation could be growing short, but he'll get at least one more turn. He'll take a 5.80 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 44:21 K:BB through 59 innings into his next outing, which lines up for a rematch with the Jays next weekend back in Cleveland.

Carrasco didn't factor into the decision Sunday against Miami, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out three.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco didn't allow a baserunner in the first three innings but was hit hard by the Miami lineup the second time through. He surrendered three extra-base hits during his final 1.2 innings, yielding a solo homer to Jazz Chisholm, a double to Bryan De La Cruz and a ground-rule double to Xavier Edwards. Carrasco's shortened outing wasn't related to the neck injury that put him on the IL in May, as he threw 71 pitches in his return June 2. The veteran righty will likely be the odd man out of the rotation once Gavin Williams (elbow) is activated from the 60-day IL in a few weeks, but Carrasco is still projected to face the Blue Jays next Sunday.

Carrasco (2-5) came away with the loss Sunday against Washington, allowing five earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out five over four innings.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco (neck) made his first start since May 15 after a minimum-length stint on the 15-day injured list due to neck spasms. Carrasco's struggles continued Sunday, losing his third straight outing and allowing five or more earned runs for the third time in his last six starts. The 37-year-old veteran has eaten up innings for Cleveland this season but has not delivered for fantasy managers, posting a 5.66 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across 49.1 frames. He will look to turn things around in his next start, tentatively scheduled for this weekend in Miami.
