Wisler (1-2) pitched 1.2 perfect innings with one strikeout and was credited with the win in Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader versus Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler needed only 21 pitches in a solid outing. He had given up three runs over his last two appearances before turning in a clean performance Tuesday. The 28-year-old right-hander has an 8.44 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 13:4 K:BB across nine innings. He's picked up two holds and a blown save, but he's unlikely to work in too many high-leverage scenarios given his poor start to 2021.

Wisler pitched a scoreless seventh inning with one walk and one strikeout to earn a hold in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
After a shaky start to the season, Wisler has strung together four scoreless outings. He's allowed just one hit and one walk with four strikeouts over his last 3.1 innings. The 28-year-old right-hander likely has some work to do if he's going to see high-leverage roles later in the year. He has a 9.00 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, 0-2 record, two holds and a blown save in 10 appearances spanning seven innings.

Wisler pitched a perfect seventh inning with one strikeout and earned a hold in Monday's 2-0 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler has had his share of struggles this season, as Monday's outing was the first time in eight appearances that he managed to pitch a full inning without allowing a baserunner. The 28-year-old is 0-2 with a 12.60 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB across five innings this season.

Wisler (0-2) was tagged with the loss Friday against Miami after allowing a giving up a run and a walk while fanning one across 1.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler didn't have problems retiring the three batters he faced in the seventh inning, but he walked Jose Aguilar with one out before departing the game and then Wandy Peralta would give up a three-run homer to Starling Marte, meaning Aguilar's run was blamed on Wisler. The right-hander continues to struggle in the first weeks of the season, giving up runs in four of his six outings and posting a ballooned 17.18 ERA across 3.2 innings thus far.

Wisler (0-1) allowed two runs on one hit and a walk while lasting just a third of an inning as he was handed the loss in Tuesday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler came on to begin the seventh and was unable to preserve a 1-1 tie. The 28-year-old got the first out before walking the next batter and then serving up a two-run homer to Victor Caratini before being yanked from the game. Wisler has had a nightmarish start to the season, allowing six runs in 1.2 innings en route to a 32.40 ERA.

Wisler allowed one run on two hits over two-thirds of an inning in Monday's 3-2 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler was charged with a blown save, as he was unable to protect a one-run lead in the sixth inning. Caleb Baragar relieved Wisler to finish the frame and earned the win after the Giants pulled ahead in the seventh. The 28-year-old Wisler has given up four earned runs in 1.1 innings spanning three appearances -- a brutal start to his first year as a Giant. Expect the right-hander to see lower-leverage assignments until he corrects course. He had a 1.07 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in 25.1 innings with the Twins last year, but his 3.34 FIP suggests that he didn't pitch quite as well as those numbers would indicate.

Wisler agreed to a one-year, $1.15 million contract with the Giants on Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wisler was a surprise non-tender by the Twins last week. He threw 83 percent sliders last season with astonishing results, finishing with a 1.07 ERA, 3.35 FIP, 1.14 WHIP and 35:14 K:BB in 25.1 innings. Tyler Rogers is the only healthy Giants reliever who had any success in the late innings last season, so Wisler could find his way to high-leverage work, depending who else the Giants sign this offseason.

Wisler was non-tendered by the Twins on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move is a bit of a surprise, as the right-hander had an impressive 2020 campaign with a 1.07 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 35:14 K:BB over 25.1 innings. Wisler enters free agency coming off the best season of his career.

Wisler threw two scoreless, hitless innings as the opener in Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader between the Twins and Tigers. He allowed one walk and struck out three.
EDGE Analysis
Make it five straight scoreless appearances for Wisler; he has a 0.93 WHIP and 13 strikeouts in that stretch (8.2 innings). The right-hander is putting together his best MLB season by a wide margin. The Twins have another doubleheader next week, so Wisler could get another opportunity to open before transitioning back to a traditional bullpen role.

Wisler will be the opener for the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Tigers, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports
EDGE Analysis
Wisler has been a starter in the past, but he hasn't thrown more than 2.2 innings in any of his 10 appearances this season, so he's unlikely to pitch too deep into this contest. It's not yet clear who will follow him.
