Ross (3-7) took the loss in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Mets, allowing five runs on six hits across five innings. He struck out five and did not issue a walk.
EDGE Analysis
If it wasn't for Francisco Lindor's monster day at the plate, Ross may have came away with a second straight strong outing. The New York shortstop tagged Ross with each of the five runs, taking the right-hander deep for a pair of two-run homers while also adding a run-scoring single. Ross threw 50 of his 67 pitches for strikes and did not issue a walk, suggesting that his command was actually quite strong during the loss. The 28-year-old will look to fair better when he takes a 4.54 ERA into his start against the Marlins next week.

Ross (3-6) allowed five hits and no walks while striking out nine in eight scoreless innings to earn the win against the Giants on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Ross had been charged with losses in each of his last two outings, but he returned to the win column with his longest start of the season Sunday. He gave up three extra-base hits but didn't allow any additional damage in the 5-0 win. The right-hander has posted a 4.19 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 62.1 innings across 12 starts this year. He tentatively lines up to make his next start at home against the Mets on Friday.

Ross (2-6) was tagged with the loss Saturday against the Phillies after allowing four unearned runs on three hits and two walks across six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Ross cruised through the first three innings, but the wheels came off in the fourth and was unable to recover from a four-run inning that was highlighted by Andrew McCutchen's three-run shot. The veteran right-hander has allowed at least four runs in four of his last five starts and has gone winless in each of his last seven starts. His next start is tentatively scheduled for next week at home against the Giants.

Ross (2-5) allowed four runs on three hits and three walks with seven strikeouts in five innings in a loss to Atlanta on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ross struggled with the first time through the order as Atlanta racked up three runs in the first inning. Ronald Acuna added a solo shot off the right-hander in the second, and Washington's offense was unable to bail out its starter. Ross has a 5.40 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 47:22 K:BB across 48.1 innings this season. He lines up to face Philadelphia this weekend.

Ross gave up three hits and a walk over four scoreless innings without factoring into the decision in a 5-3 win over the Reds, a game that was suspended by rain and completed Thursday afternoon. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was locked in Wednesday night, tossing 38 of 55 pitches for strikes, and the Nats had a 3-0 lead when the skies opened up. Ross would have been in line for his third win has the game not been put on pause, and he'll take a 5.19 ERA and 40:19 K:BB through 43.1 innings into his next outing.

Ross (2-4) was charged with the loss Thursday against the Cubs, allowing four runs (two earned) on five hits and a walk while striking out three across 3.2 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Ross couldn't go the distance in this one, turning in his shortest start of the year while giving up his ninth homer in eight appearances. With the loss, the right-hander's career record against the Cubs falls to 0-3 in seven games (six starts). On the season, Ross has posted a 5.72 ERA and 1.47 WHIP and will look to turn things around during his next projected outing at home Wednesday against Cincinnati.

Ross (2-3) took the loss against Arizona on Saturday, giving up eight runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out five over four innings.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander gave up three runs in the first inning and another three in the fourth. He returned to the mound in the fifth frame and allowed the first two batters of the inning to reach base, leading to his removal from the contest. Both baserunners eventually came around to score, and Ross was charged with eight total runs in his shortest outing of the campaign. He has allowed two or fewer runs in five of his seven starts this season, but two disastrous outings have pushed his ERA to an undesirable 5.80. Ross will look for a better result in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for Thursday at Wrigley Field.

Ross allowed two runs on three hits and five walks while striking out seven in five innings in Sunday's loss to the Yankees. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Ross racked up a season-high seven strikeouts Sunday, but he had some issues with command. The right-hander only threw 53 of his 97 pitches for strikes, and he issued a season-high five walks as a result. Ross has posted a 4.26 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in 31.2 innings across six starts this year. He tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Arizona on Saturday.

Ross (2-2) took the loss Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over 5.1 innings as the Nationals were downed 6-1 by Atlanta. He struck out three.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was engaged in a pitchers' duel with Huascar Ynoa through four innings, but once Ronald Acuna socked a solo shot off Ross in the fifth, things fell apart quickly for the Nats. He tossed 86 pitches (54 strikes) in coming two outs shy of his third quality start in five trips to the mound, and Ross will carry a 4.39 ERA and 21:9 K:BB through 26.2 innings into his next outing.
