EDGE Analysis
After four consecutive poor outings to begin the season, Weaver came through to deliver a strong performance. He allowed only one extra-base hit and did not surrender a home run for the first time in a start this season. Underlying numbers didn't necessarily support the turnaround -- he had only nine swinging strikes on 87 total pitches and began 9 of the 19 batters he faced with a strike -- but it was nevertheless a positive development. He now has a 9.16 ERA across 18.2 innings, though he has a 23:8 K:BB. Weaver will look to stay on track in his next outing, currently projected to come Sunday at San Francisco.
