Carrasco left Monday's game with left pectoral tightness, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury limited Carrasco to just 3.2 innings, but he wasn't sharp at all, needing 75 pitches (including 34 balls) to get that far. Further evaluation will be needed before we know if he will need to go on the disabled list, but he should be considered questionable for his next start at this point.

Carrasco was forced to leave Monday's start against Tampa Bay with an apparent injury, Paul Hoynes of Cleveland.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was unclear what happened to Carrasco, but he walked off with a trainer after completing just 3.2 innings. He was wild all game long, as he threw just 41 strikes in 75 pitches and walked three batters.

Carrasco (4-2) threw seven shutout innings Tuesday in a road win over Toronto. He struck out seven and didn't walk a batter.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco was brilliant in this one, and has now thrown his sixth consecutive quality start. His ERA was lowered to an impressive 1.86 and while his peripherals do suggest that he's the beneficiary of a good deal of luck (.211 BABIP), he's become one of the more reliable starters in the majors through the first month. He'll look to keep it rolling next Monday at home against Tampa Bay.

Carrasco was fighting a fever throughout his Wednesday start against the White Sox, MLB.com's Jordan Bastian reports.

EDGE Analysis

Terry Francona made sense of why he pulled his starting pitcher after just six innings and 91 pitches -- both of which were Carrasco's lowest totals since his first outing of the season. Onlookers would have no idea the 30-year-old was battling an illness based on the performance that earned him a victory. In six starts this year, Carrasco has turned in a 2.18 ERA, which currently ranks ninth among AL starters. He's also tied with Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw for the third-most innings (41.1) in MLB.

Carrasco (3-2) pitched six strong innings in Detroit on Wednesday, striking out five while allowing two runs on five hits and a walk in a 3-2 win.

EDGE Analysis

It says something about just how good Carrasco's been that this was one of his worst starts so far in 2017. That said, the 30-year-old righty has experienced some terrific luck -- including a .214 BABIP and 89.3 percent strand rate -- so expect that 2.18 ERA to regress into the threes. Of course, that still leaves him with plenty of fantasy value.

Carrasco pitched eight innings (for the second straight outing), allowing three runs on six hits and no walks while striking out seven Mariners in Friday's loss.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco pitched well enough to win, but he also allowed two home runs that were the difference as the Mariners took the victory 3-1. The 30-year-old has pitched into the sixth inning in all five of his starts this season, walking no more than one batter in three of them. Despite those impressive numbers, Carrasco has a 2-2 record because the Indians have only scored 12 runs with him on the mound. All in all, he looks like the right-hander we saw last season when his 3.32 ERA ranked 10th in the AL before he suffered a season-ending broken right hand. Carrasco will make his next start Wednesday against Detroit.

Carrasco (2-1) pitched eight scoreless innings with just three hits and a walk allowed and eight strikeouts during Saturday's win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

It's always encouraging when an ace takes care of business against an inferior opponent, and Carrasco did just that Saturday. He's now sporting a 1.65 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and has struck out 27 batters through 27.1 innings to start the campaign. Carrasco lines up to face the Mariners next.

Carrasco (1-1) took the loss Sunday against the Tigers, allowing two runs on four hits and five walks across 6.2 innings. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco struggled with his command at times, issuing five walks for the first time in his nine-year big league career. He still battled into the seventh inning and was only breached by a two-run homer from Alex Avila in the second inning. Control issues have not been a problem at all for Carrasco, who had issued just one free pass in 2017 prior to Sunday, and his overall body of work suggests he should be in for another quality outing Friday against the White Sox.

Carrasco (1-0) allowed only one run on four hits while striking out seven over seven innings Tuesday, but took a no-decision in a 2-1 extra-inning win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The only blemish on his performance was a Todd Frazier solo homer in the fifth inning. Carrasco threw 61 of 95 pitches for strikes and now has a dominant 14:1 K:BB through his first 12.2 innings of the season. He'll next take the mound Sunday at home against the Tigers.

Carrasco (1-0) earned the win over the Rangers on Tuesday, allowing just two runs on four hits and one walk across 5.2 innings. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Carrasco had a terrific concept of the strike zone Tuesday, throwing 68 percent of his pitches for the strikes, and his only real blemish came on a long Joey Gallo home run in the second inning. The club limited Carrasco's pitches as he continues to fully build up his stamina, but this was certainly a positive step toward his ultimate goal in that regard. He should be expected to near 90 pitches in his next start Tuesday against the White Sox.
