Weaver (8-8) pitched six innings, allowing four runs (three earned) on nine hits and struck out one in Wednesday's no-decision against Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
After a few good outings last month, Weaver once again appears to be a shell of the pitcher most prefer to remember him as. The veteran has faced 531 hitters in 2016 and 81 percent of them have been able to put the ball in play against Weaver (that's a problem). The right-hander's 4.8 K/9 is massively below his career number of 7.1 strikeouts per nine. Weaver's fastball is clocked slower than some pitcher's changeups, and he simply can't get hitters out on his own anymore. He's admitted to playing through pain this season, too. There are just way too many red flags to count on Weaver under most circumstances.
