Boyd gave up only one run on five hits and two walks over five innings while striking out five Friday, but he had to settle for a no-decision in a 3-2 loss to Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty ran up his pitch count in what was otherwise a strong performance, throwing 61 of 98 pitches for strikes before exiting the game with the score knotted at 1-1. Boyd should remain in the Tigers rotation for the rest of the season with Justin Verlander in Houston and Michael Fulmer (elbow) shut down, but his 6.19 ERA in the second half doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.
