Gonzalez didn't factor into the decision against the Pirates on Friday, giving up three earned runs on five hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran southpaw wasn't his sharpest and got into some early trouble by giving up an RBI double to Ryan Zimmerman and a two-run shot to Danny Espinosa that plated the former in the second inning. Gonzalez has now gone five innings or less in three of his last four starts, with his only strong effort over that span coming against a Phillies squad that's been hopeless against lefties all season. The 31-year-old will look to wrap up the regular season with his 12th win when he takes on the D-backs next Wednesday.
