EDGE Analysis

The rookie was stellar in his return to the big league club after a brief three-day stint in the minors, but was a tough-luck loser nonetheless. Taillon turned in his best performance since an eight-inning shutout of the Padres on Aug. 11 while throwing an efficient 76 pitches, 51 of which he fired for strikes. As has often been the case during his rookie campaign, he avoided the long ball altogether, after uncharacteristically having given up three homers over his two previous starts. He'll look to get back in the win column when he takes on the Cardinals on Wednesday.
