Kuhl threw three scoreless innings Tuesday, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

First baseman Colin Moran collided with Kuhl in the first inning Tuesday, but the righty remained in the game and pitched well. Kuhl slots as the team's No. 2 or No. 3 starter in 2021. As long as he avoids the blister injury reoccurrence that bothered him last summer, he could surprise, considering he posted a 3.00 ERA and 9:2 K:BB in six spring innings.
