Kuhl (1-5) allowed five runs on eight hits while striking out three over 4.1 innings to take the loss Friday against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Kuhl gave up a pair of homers to Neil Walker, and he was unable to keep the Pirates in the game in his matchup against Jacob DeGrom. With an ERA of 6.29, he's not a pitcher that fantasy owners can place much trust in unless he strings together a few solid outings in a row. He'll make his next start Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.
