Kluber (9-3) was masterful in Thursday's complete game win over the Yankees, allowing just one run on three hits with one walk and 11 strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Kluber spoiled Sonny Gray's New York debut by going a full nine innings for the third time this season while racking up double-digit strikeouts for the ninth time in his last 10 starts. His numbers in that stretch have been Cy Young worthy, as the 2014 winner of the award has posted a 1.70 ERA and 113:12 K:BB over 74.1 innings. Kluber's only blemish in this one was a seventh-inning homer by Gary Sanchez. The right-hander faces another potent lineup next with the Rockies in town Tuesday, but there's no such thing as a bad matchup for Kluber given his recent form.

Kluber will keep his Thursday start against New York, despite Wednesday's postponed game against Boston, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trevor Bauer was in line for Wednesday's start, but he will now be bumped in order to keep Kluber on schedule. The Tribe's ace has been on an absolute tear in recent weeks, and he'll look to keep that going when he squares of with new Yankee Sonny Gray in Cleveland on Thursday night.

In five July starts, Kluber went 1-1 with a 2.62 ERA and 56 strikeouts over 34.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
After setting a career-best mark with a 13.4 K/9 in June, Kluber topped that with a 14.7 K/9 in July. Saying the right-hander is on fire wouldn't do him justice. Over his last 11 starts, opponents are slashing just .177/.224/.275 over 292 plate appearances. Furthermore, batters have connected for hard contact just 22.4 percent of the time, the lowest percentage for any pitcher during that period. If not for a back injury that sidelined Kluber for all but three innings in May, he'd be neck and neck with Boston's Chris Sale in the AL Cy Young race.

Kluber allowed four runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out 12 batters over 6.1 innings during Saturday's win over the White Sox. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Since returning from the disabled list June 1, Kluber has recorded 120 strikeouts through just 77.1 innings. He boasts an elite 2.90 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 12.6 K/9 for the campaign, and is a true matchup-proof hurler in all fantasy formats. Kluber projects to face the Yankees at Progressive Field in his next start.

Kluber (8-3) struck out 14 Blue Jays over seven one-run innings Sunday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks.
EDGE Analysis
Kluber continued his recent run of dominance in this one, throwing 81 of his 120 pitches for strikes, including a whopping 23 in swinging fashion. He allowed just one man past second base and was only breached by a solo home run from Kevin Pillar to lead off the third inning. Kluber has now gone at least seven innings while recording double-digit strikeouts in seven of his last eight starts, posting an excellent 90:10 K:BB during that stretch. His season ERA now sits at a sterling 2.74 and he will look to keep it rolling Friday against the White Sox.

Kluber (neck) will start Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
The Indians pushed Kluber back a couple of days in the schedule due to a stiff neck, but after completing his pre-start bullpen session early this week without incident, the right-hander will be cleared to take the bump in the series finale. Kluber has been dealing since the start of May, turning in nine consecutive quality starts and submitting a 1.56 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 94:11 K:BB over 63.1 innings during that span.

Kluber (neck) is listed as the probable starter for Sunday's matinee tilt with the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Kluber has been dealing with a stiff neck over his past few starts and was already bumped from his previously-scheduled appearance Friday, but it appears he'll still make an outing this week, barring any setbacks. The right-hander owns an outstanding 2.86 ERA and 0.96 WHIP over 15 starts this season and ranks ninth in the majors with 135 strikeouts.

Kluber could make his next start Sunday against the Blue Jays depending on the neck discomfort that has been plaguing him in recent days, MLB.com's Jordan Bastian reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Kluber deals with a stiff neck, the Indians chose to skip his scheduled start for Friday's game and bump Trevor Bauer and Danny Salazar (shoulder) up a day. Kluber should be considered day-to-day, with the club releasing more information on his availability over the next couple days. In the event that Kluber is unable to make Sunday's start, Josh Tomlin would pick up the slack for the series finale.

Kluber has recently been dealing with a stiff neck, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kluber is reportedly dealing with some neck issues, though you wouldn't know it by watching him pitch. The ace has been on a brilliant run of late but may have to have his upcoming start bumped back or skipped all-together if the discomfort in his neck fails to subside. Kluber will be considered day-to-day as the Indians head into their weekend series against the Blue Jays.

Kluber allowed three earned runs on five hits over 7.1 innings in Saturday's loss to the A's, recording 12 strikeouts and zero walks in the process.
EDGE Analysis
The Cleveland ace was victimized by the unlikely hitting of rookie Matt Chapman, who scored all three runs against Kluber, including a game-tying solo home run in the eighth inning. Regardless, the right-hander was able to cruise through the rest of the outing relatively unscathed while bringing his season strikeout total to a lofty 135, good for third in the American League. The three earned runs was the most Kluber has allowed since June 9, which only speaks to his dominance over that stretch, as he has posted double-digit strikeouts six times in seven starts.
