EDGE Analysis
The right-hander has returned to dominant form since a stint on the COVID-19 injured list. In his last four starts, Cole has allowed just two runs across 24.2 innings while posting a 39:4 K:BB in that span. He hasn't exactly faced strong competition in that stretch -- he's drawn the Angels twice along with the Athletics and Twins once each -- but he's handled the opposition in front of him with little trouble. For the season, Cole owns a 2.73 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 215:32 K:BB through 155 innings. He lines up for a home start versus heavy-hitting Toronto next week.
