Odorizzi (3-4) allowed four runs on six hits and four walks while fanning five across five innings Sunday as he took the loss against Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi surrendered a run in the second off a Tyler Naquin RBI single, followed by three runs in the third to put the Indians ahead, 4-1. Odorizzi has been decent of late, allowing two runs across five innings June 12 against Detroit and three runs across five innings June 6 against the White Sox, but he hasn't garnered enough run support to pick up a win since May 8. Through 15 starts this season, he sits with a 4.38 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 77:35 K:BB over 78 innings.

Odorizzi allowed one earned run on five hits while walking two and striking out 10 across 5.2 innings Sunday against the Brewers. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi generated an impressive 17 swinging strikes to aid him in recording his best strikeout total of the season. He has been on an impressive three-start stretch, allowing only two earned runs in his last 16.2 innings pitched. However, he has yet to correct a home run problem -- he is allowing 1.67 HR/9 -- that could come back to haunt him as the season goes on.

Odorizzi took a no-decision Monday against Seattle despite throwing six shutout innings with seven strikeouts and allowing just four hits and a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi was matched inning-for-inning by his opposite starter, Wade LeBlanc, but this was still one of his best starts of the season. He has been sharp this season, with a 3.35 ERA, but this marks just the fourth time Odorizzi has managed to complete the sixth inning. The seven strikeouts wound up just one shy of a season high as Odorizzi's fastball was electric, inducing seven swinging strikes in 60 offerings and setting up his fastball and splitter beautifully. He'll look to complete his two-start week on a high note Sunday against Milwaukee.

Odorizzi (3-2) struck out three, and allowed one earned run on two hits and two walks across five innings to earn the win against the Cardinals on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi's only blemish on the afternoon was a first-inning home run given up to Jose Martinez. The 28-year-old now has a 3.83 ERA and 1.32 WHIP with 38 stikeouts and 20 walks over 42.1 innings this season, and is next slated to start Monday against the Mariners.

Odorizzi (2-2) allowed one run on five hits and two walks while striking out three over six innings in a win over the Reds on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The lone blemish came on a hanging first-pitch breaking ball, which Scott Schebler deposited in the right-field seats. Otherwise Odorizzi was strong, inducing 11 swinging strikes and a slew of weak popups on 91 pitches. He's a heavy flyball pitcher and more flyballs will leave the yard against better lineups -- the Yankees and Indians combined for five homers in 9.2 innings against Odorizzi his last two times out -- but the 28-year-old has appeal as a streamer in certain matchups. Next up: the White Sox in Chicago next week.

Odorizzi (1-2) allowed five runs on five hits and three walks across 4.2 innings while taking the loss Monday against the Yankees. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
Odorozzi allowed three runs during a first-inning rally before allowing solo home runs in the second and the fifth to round out the damage against his ledger. He continuously squandered favorable counts, throwing just 56 percent of his pitches for strikes despite getting ahead on 14 of 22 batters faced. Odorizzi put together two quality starts in his first three, but he's struggled since then and now owns a 4.50 ERA. He'll look to get back on track this weekend against the Reds.

Odorizzi went five innings in the loss to Cleveland on Tuesday, allowing four runs on six hits while delivering six strikeouts and one walk.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi allowed six hits in five innings, all of them for extra bases. He gave up three doubles and three homers, including back-to-back solo shots from Jose Ramirez and Michael Brantley to open the sixth, which subsequently ended his night. He hadn't allowed a hit through the first two innings, and didn't give up a run through four, but that ended with a two-run blast from Francisco Lindor in the fifth. Odorizzi is now 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA and 19 strikeouts in 21.1 innings for his new club. With the off day Thursday, Odorizzi may be in line to face his former team in Tampa for his next outing.

Odorizzi will start Tuesday against the Indians in Puerto Rico.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi had been in line to start in one of the Twins' three games with the White Sox over the weekend, but all three contests were postponed after inclement weather hit Minneapolis. With conditions expected to be much more favorable Tuesday, Odorizzi shouldn't be in much jeopardy of having another start pushed back, and will have the benefit of pitching on six days' rest. Assuming the Twins experience no further postponements during the upcoming week, Odorizzi would line up for a second start April 22 in Tampa Bay.

Odorizzi (1-0) allowed one earned run on five hits while walking five and striking out four across six innings to earn the win Tuesday against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi allowed 10 baserunners but managed to dance out of danger and surrender only earned run. After allowing two extra-base hits over 4.1 innings in his last start against the Pirates, he managed to keep the Astros from recording any Tuesday. While his season opening start remains his most impressive, allowing only one earned run to the dangerous Astros lineup has to be considered encouraging.

Odorizzi allowed three runs on five hits and three walks with two strikeouts over 4.1 innings in a no-decision Wednesday against Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi just couldn't get his footing, as he threw just 12 first pitch strikes to 21 hitters and just 48 strikes out of 87 total pitches. Things could have been much worse had his bullpen and defense not bailed him out, as the Twinss stranded a runner on the bases and threw another one out following Odorizzi's fifth inning exit. Still, on the strength of his brilliant opening start, Odorizzi owns a 2.61 ERA.
