EDGE Analysis
Lyles was pretty efficient in the outing, needing just 83 pitches (55 of which were a strike) to get through six frames. All three of the hits he allowed were singles, and the right-hander notched his third quality start of the campaign. Lyles hasn't been rosterable in most fantasy formats this season with a 6.05 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 6.4 K/9, but he's at least eaten innings for the Royals, going six or more frames in nine of his 18 starts. Lyles has also shown improvement of late, posting a 3.13 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB over his past four starts spanning 23 innings.
