Leake (4-2) allowed two runs on five hits and three walks over six innings while striking out five in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
He really only made two mistakes Friday night, but Willson Contreras put both of them in the seats for solo homers. Leake has now thrown a quality start in all seven of his trips to the mound this season, but his 1.94 ERA and 0.99 WHIP (as compared to a 3.31 FIP and 3.59 xFIP) indicate he's pitching above his head at the moment. The 29-year-old's next start will come Friday at home against the struggling Giants.
