Carrasco (13-10) gave up one earned run over six innings Monday, allowing five hits and two walks while striking out nine in an 8-3 win over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

The win was Carrasco's sixth quality start in his last seven outings, a span including at least five strikeouts each game. Carrasco has performed admirably as Cleveland's de facto ace, helping the Indians stay afloat in their pursuit of a wild-card spot until Corey Kluber returns from the disabled list.
