Cole allowed three runs with four strikeouts compared to just one walk across 6.2 innings in Sunday's start versus the Angels. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Cole pounded the strike zone and was nearly in line to earn the win Sunday, but the bullpen allowed a late lead to slip away as the Angels won with a late rally. He is the owner of a sparkling 2.85 ERA through 66.1 innings, but his K/9 rate now sits at a career-low 7.08. Although he has slightly underachieved in a couple of areas, Cole is still a strong fantasy asset and will look to get back in the win column Friday against the Cardinals.
