Kennedy (4-11) lasted just three innings and allowed three runs on four hits and three walks with two strikeouts to take the loss Friday against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Confidence in Kennedy seems to be running thin in Kansas City. This marks the third time in his past five starts that Kennedy has failed to go deeper than three innings, and he hasn't completed the sixth inning since June 28 against Detroit. Expect Kennedy's leash to be short for the rest of the season. His ERA is up to a bloated 5.45.
