Cole (6-6) allowed a single run on five hits and two walks while striking out five batters through six innings during Saturday's win over St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Outside of a disastrous four-game stretch where Cole allowed 23 runs through 19 innings, the 26-year-old righty has been outstanding. After all, to sport a 4.11 ERA and 1.25 WHIP with that disastrous span on the books highlights how strong the rest of Cole's body of work has been. Additionally, he's now surrendered just three runs through 20 innings over his past three starts. Cole lines up for a cushy matchup at home against the reeling Giants in his next start.
