Pelfrey (0-3) gave up three runs on five hits and a walk over 4.2 innings while striking out two in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

He needed 95 pitches (58 strikes) to record just 14 outs, and Pelfrey has allowed at least three runs in all four of his starts since being called up, saddling him with a 5.21 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and woeful 6:7 K:BB in 19 innings. Nonetheless, the team's lack of healthy alternatives will keep the 33-year-old in the rotation for now. He'll get his best shot yet at his first win of the season Sunday when the White Sox host the Padres.
