EDGE Analysis

Williams had his best start of the season Monday against the Royals. His lone mistake came in the second inning when he walked Yuli Gurriel and then gave up an RBI double to Maikel Garcia. Williams would go on to retire the next 16 batters he faced before being replaced in the eighth. The seven innings pitched were a season high, and the third time in his career he's reached that mark. The 25-year-old will take a 4.55 ERA into his next start.
