Carrasco was destroyed in Tuesday's loss to the Twins. He lasted just 3.2 innings, allowing eight runs, nine hits and two walks while striking out a season-low one hitter.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco's stellar 2.45 ERA entering the game was inflated to 3.12 with Tuesday's poor performance. After a stretch of five wins in six starts, the 29-year-old righty has lost two straight. In his last couple of outings, Carrasco has allow 11 runs on 12 hits in 9.2 innings. His rebound attempt will come at Yankee Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Carrasco (7-4) was tagged with the loss despite giving up just three runs on three hits over six innings Wednesday versus the Nationals. He walked three and struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
Unfortunately for Carrasco, his third straight quality start didn't stand a chance against Stephen Strasburg's gem in this one. However, the 29-year-old did enough to win on most other days, including retiring 10 consecutive batters at one point. Although it's not what many owners had bought in expecting for, Carrasco has put together a fine season in his seventh MLB go-round that includes a career-best 2.45 ERA and 10 quality outings in 15 starts. He has a friendly matchup with the Twins in his next turn on Tuesday, a team he limited to four hits in a victory just two starts ago.

Carrasco (7-3) was nearly perfect, as he allowed no runs on one hit, struck out six and walked two over six innings in a victory over the Royals on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
It was the third time this season he threw at least six shutout innings in a start. In the first five innings, he allowed just one base runner, which was a double to Cheslor Cuthbert. The strong outing dropped his ERA down to 2.31; he also has a 1.03 WHIP and 81 strikeouts in 85.2 innings. His next start will be Wednesday against the Nationals.

Carrasco (6-3) allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out three over 6.2 innings to earn the win Friday at the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
The Indians broke open a 2-2 tie with a pair of runs in the sixth inning to help Carrasco earn his sixth win of the year. He's now held opponents to two or fewer earned runs in each of his last seven starts to lower his ERA to 2.49 on the season. He'll make his next start Wednesday at the Royals.

Carrasco (5-3) lasted just 3.2 innings Sunday, allowing five runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks while striking out four in a loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
The Indians committed two errors behind him, adding to Carrasco's pitch count and eventually forcing him from the game after 81 pitches, but at least the shaky defense helped him avoid too much damage to his ERA. He got out of the game in the nick of time too, as the Yankees exploded for six runs in the top of the fifth inning. Carrasco will carry a career-best 2.47 ERA into the second half, but his 1.10 WHIP and 72:20 K:BB in 73 innings are a little off the pace he set in 2014-2015.

Carrasco (5-2) cruised to the victory in Tuesday's 12-1 game against the Tigers. He pitched six innings, allowing one run on three hits and three walks while striking out five.
EDGE Analysis
That makes three straight victories and five consecutive quality starts for Carrasco. His five strikeouts probably brought on some disappointment for owners, but the right-hander didn't need to do much more than pitch to contact with such a big lead in place. He'll take a 2.47 ERA into his next start Sunday against the Yankees.

Carrasco (4-2) shut down the Jays over 7.1 innings Thursday, allowing one run, three hits and two walks while striking out 14 in the win.
EDGE Analysis
Between the sixth and eighth innings, Carrasco registered six consecutive strikeouts. Eight of the right-hander's 14 strikeouts came via his signature split-changeup. He fell one short of his career high of 15 strikeouts that came on Sept. 25 last year against the Royals. Since returning from the DL, Carrasco has been great, posting a 2.91 ERA and 1.21 WHIP while striking out 29 in 34 innings.

Carrasco threw a complete-game, four-hit shutout in Saturday's 6-0 victory over the Tigers, surrendering only one walk and striking out seven.
EDGE Analysis
The talented righty has certainly endured his share of ups and downs this season, but Saturday's effort was a reminder of how dominant he can still be. Carrasco fired 82 of 117 pitches across the strike zone, and also induced 15 swinging strikes. The 29-year-old righty now has three straight quality starts, and has his ERA back down to a solid 2.73 after a couple of difficult outings earlier in June. He'll try to extend his stellar stretch on Thursday versus the Blue Jays.

Carrasco (2-2) gave up two runs on five hits and four walks over 7.1 innings Sunday, striking out six, but came away with a no-decision in an extra-inning win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
He and Carlos Rodon were in lock-step for the early part of the game, each giving up a single run in the first inning and solo homers in the fourth, but Carrasco at least got to see his team win it in the 10th. He threw 62 of 100 pitches for strikes including 17 swinging strikes, and now has a 3.96 ERA and 22:7 K:BB in 25 innings over four starts since coming off the DL. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start at home against the Tigers on Saturday.
