Manaea (2-4) gave up five runs on six hits and two walks and struck out six over seven innings in a loss Tuesday against Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Manaea got touched up for a pair of home runs, which continues to be a huge issue for the rookie. He has now surrendered seven in his first eight starts, resulting in a 1.2 HR/9. Missing bats hasn't been a problem -- he induced 16 whiffs against Milwaukee on Tuesday -- but he just hasn't shown the command to get through entire games without making those big mistakes just yet. His ERA is up to 6.20, and he'll have to keep the ball in the yard to start bringing that down.
