Odorizzi pitched seven very strong innings, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out four Blue Jays in Monday's no-decision.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi bounced back from his worst start of the season by firing the eighth quality start of his 11 second-half outings. Aside from a blip on Sep. 6 versus Baltimore, Odorizzi hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in a game since the All-Star break. Over that stretch, the right-hander is 6-1 with a 2.78 ERA, .233 BAA and 54 strikeouts in 68 innings. He's been one of the league's top pitchers lately, but he'll draw Baltimore again in his next start Sunday.

Odorizzi (9-6) lasted just four innings Tuesday, allowing seven runs on six hits and three walks while striking out two and taking the loss against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi was doing fine until the fourth inning Tuesday, when he walked two, hit a batter, and gave up a pair of singles before surrendering a grand slam to Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado. Odorizzi had been the Rays most consistent pitcher lately, and had gone nine straight starts giving up three earned runs or fewer entering Tuesday. He still sports a 3.86 ERA and 1.23 WHIP, and will look to bounce back against the Yankees on Sunday.

Odorizzi threw six innings of three run ball on five hits and two walks Tuesday, striking out seven but earning a no-decision as the Rays rallied with a pair of homers late to win the game 4-3.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi was pitching a one-hit shutout until the fifth inning, when Hanley Ramirez laced a home run down the right field line. Odorizzi has been very strong in the second half so far, going 5-0 with a 2.09 ERA over his last seven starts. Tuesday's outing was quite solid when considering the Red Sox have scored the most runs in the AL, leading the second place Blue Jays by 68. Odorizzi will next face the Orioles at home on Monday.

Odorizzi (9-5) pitched seven innings, allowing one run on five hits and three walks while striking out four in Thursday's win over the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Odorizzi got the better end of a pitcher's duel with Red Sox starter Drew Pomeranz to pick up his sixth straight victorious decision. Thursday marked the right-hander's seventh quality start in his last eight outings, a stretch in which he's posted a miniscule 1.40 ERA with 34 strikeouts over 45 innings. Odorizzi remains undefeated since the All-Star break and has pushed his ERA for the season down to 3.53, its best mark since June 8. The 26-year-old will look to continue his hot streak when he takes on the Red Sox once again, this time on the road, in his next start Tuesday.

Odorizzi gave up just an earned run on six hits and a walk over six innings in Saturday's 8-2 victory over the Rangers. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander fired 65 of his 101 pitches for strikes, with his only mistake being the 385-foot solo shot he yielded to Roughned Odor in the fourth. Odorizzi has been solid over his last seven starts, with three consecutive scoreless outings during one stretch over that span, as well as six quality starts overall. He's rattled off five straight victories and will look to extend that streak against the Red Sox next Thursday.

Odorizzi (7-5) allowed three runs on five hits and a walk over six innings while striking out six to pick up the win Sunday in a 12-3 rout of the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
The runs all scored on homers by Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez, but when you get that kind of run support you can afford to leave a couple of balls over the heart of the plate. Odorizzi's now won four straight decisions over six starts with a 1.66 ERA and 33:7 K:BB in 38 innings over that stretch, a stellar run that he'll try to keep going at home Saturday against the Rangers.

Odorizzi surrendered four runs in 5.1 innings in a no-decision on Monday against the Blue Jays. He gave up eight hits, walked three, and struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
The start broke a stretch of three straight shutout starts for Odorizzi. The righty has now allowed just six runs in five starts since the All-Star break. Odorizzi will carry a 3.82 ERA and 1.22 WHIP into his start Sunday against the Yankees.

Odorizzi (6-5) shut the Royals out for six innings Wednesday, allowing just two hits and two walks while striking out six in a winning effort.
EDGE Analysis
That's three straight scoreless outings for Odorizzi, and he's lasted at least six frames every time. He's had a disappointing 2016, regressing instead of building on last year's numbers, but if Odorizzi can maintain the strong control he's shown lately and regain the homer-prevention ability he's shown through much of his career, he should have nowhere to go but up. Nonetheless, his upcoming date with the division-rival Jays on Monday doesn't present an appetizing matchup.

Odorizzi (5-5) fired 6.2 scoreless innings in Friday's 5-1 victory over the Yankees, surrendering six hits and striking out five.
EDGE Analysis
The young righty kept his impressive scoreless streak alive, throwing 71 of his 104 pitches for strikes in the process while also inducing 13 swings-and-misses. Odorizzi has not given up a run in the last two starts, a span of 14.2 innings, and has only surrendered two earned runs over the 20.2 innings encompassing his last three trips to the mound. It's easily the 26-year-old's best stretch of pitching this season, and he'll look to continue it when he takes on the Royals at Tropicana Field next Wednesday.

Odorizzi (4-5) pitched eight-scoreless innings, but walked away with a no-decision in Friday's 13-inning affair against the A's. He allowed five hits and struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old was dealing Friday, but was matched every step of the way by his counterpart Sean Manaaea, leaving Odorizzi with nothing to show for his best outing of the season. After having just 10 in all of last season, Odorizzi already has a MLB-leading 12 no-decisions in 2016. In six of his no-decisions, he has allowed one run or less. Talk about hard luck, Odorizzi is 13-14 since 2015 and has received just 24 runs in his 14 losses. The right-hander will try again Friday when he takes on the Yankees, a team he lost to 2-1 back on May 29.
