EDGE Analysis
Recalled to make his first start since May 26, Pfaadt struggled against a powerful Tampa Bay offense, surrendering five of his runs in the third inning without recording an out. The rookie right-hander now has an unsightly 9.82 ERA and 1.87 WHIP with a 21:10 K:BB through six big-league starts (25.2 innings). Pfaadt had shown promise at the Triple-A level, but he doesn't appear ready to face major-league lineups yet.
