Weaver allowed four runs on eight hits in a loss to the Athletics on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

He struck out four and walked one in the contest. Weaver may have expected a different result after tossing a complete game against Oakland in his last start, but a 36 percent hard contact rate and 13 percent strikeout rate will likely make it difficult to produce consistent results. The soft-tosser should be able to frustrate lineups on occasion, but his 5.24 ERA tells us that he has been getting hit more often than not. He will look for a better result when he faces the Astros next week.
