Parker (7-11) took the loss Friday as the Nationals were downed 16-9 by the Brewers, surrendering eight runs on 12 hits and a walk over four-plus innings. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty served up a pair of homers to light-hitting Blake Perkins, but Parker didn't have better luck against the rest of the Milwaukee lineup. It's the second time in Parker's last four starts that he's been tagged for seven or more runs, and he's gone seven straight outings without striking out more than four batters, a stretch in which he's labored to a 6.99 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 19:12 K:BB over 37.1 innings. He'll try to pull out of the tailspin in his next start, which is scheduled to come at home next week against the Athletics.

Parker (7-10) earned the win Saturday, allowing two runs on eight hits and one walk over 5.2 innings against the Twins. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

Parker tossed five scoreless innings before running into trouble and allowing two earned runs, ultimately getting pulled just one out shy of a quality start. The lefty has now delivered back-to-back solid outings, posting a 3.09 ERA and 1.29 WHIP over 11.2 innings, a notable improvement from the 9.28 ERA and 2.06 WHIP he recorded over 10.2 innings in his first two starts of July. Following Saturday's performance, Parker owns a 4.91 ERA and 1.41 WHIP across 21 starts and 113.2 innings this season.

Parker (6-10) earned the win against the Padres on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk with four strikeouts over five innings.

EDGE Analysis

Parker allowed two runs in the third inning but was otherwise strong despite generating just six whiffs on 82 pitches. It was an encouraging effort after the southpaw surrendered 16 runs (11 earned) over his previous two July outings, and he's now logged two quality-start victories against the Padres since June 23. He'll carry a 5.00 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 70:41 K:BB across 108 innings into a road matchup with the Twins next weekend.

Parker (5-10) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, giving up seven runs on eight hits and three walks in 4.2 innings. He didn't record a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Milwaukee got all over Parker in the third inning, tagging the hurler for six runs on six consecutive hits to begin the frame. The 25-year-old left-hander also failed to register a punchout for the first time since his April 27 start, and he set a season worst in earned runs. Parker will take a lackluster 5.12 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 66:40 K:BB over 102 innings into the All-Star break, and he's tied with four other pitchers for the second-most losses in the National League.

Parker (5-9) was charged with the loss Saturday against the Red Sox after allowing nine runs (four earned) on 10 hits and one walk across six innings. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

The left-hander ran into trouble early as Boston scored twice in the opening frame. Things didn't fall apart for Parker until the third inning, however, with the Red Sox scoring seven runs on seven hits and a walk. His final line isn't terrible for fantasy managers due to the five unearned runs, and he completed five frames for the fourth consecutive start. Parker has a 4.72 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 66:37 K:BB across 97.1 innings this year, and his nine losses are tied for fourth most in the majors.

Parker allowed three runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Parker held his own in this outing, throwing 48 of 76 pitches for strikes. He lost four of his six starts in June, but he was able to limit the damage to three runs or less in five of them. Parker is now at a 4.63 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 62:36 K:BB through 91.1 innings over 17 starts this season. The southpaw's next start is expected to be at home versus the Red Sox.

Parker (5-8) earned the win over San Diego on Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one batter over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

Parker entered Monday having lost each of his past five starts, but he was able to get back in the win column while also tossing his second straight quality start. The southpaw didn't miss many bats -- he notched just one punchout and five whiffs -- but managed to limit the damage against him despite giving up two homers. Parker's lack of strikeout stuff and 4.59 season ERA make him an unappealing option in most fantasy leagues, but he's been able to stay healthy and remain in the rotation for the Nationals throughout the campaign, as he's tied for the team lead with 16 starts.

Parker (4-8) took the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing one run on six hits over six innings. He struck out eight.

EDGE Analysis

While the Nats failed to provide enough run support in an eventual 3-1 defeat, it was an impressive outing from Parker, who set a season high in strikeouts while allowing just one run on Michael Toglia's sixth-inning homer. It's an encouraging bounce-back effort from Parker, who gave up six runs in just 3.1 innings against the Marlins his last time out. Overall, the left-hander sports a 4.59 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP and 58:31 K:BB across 15 starts (80.1 innings) this season.

Parker (4-7) took the loss against the Marlins on Friday, allowing six runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out three across 3.1 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Parker gave up a run in each of the first two innings before yielding four runs in the third, highlighted by a two-run double by Jake Myers. Parker struggled with his control with only 48 strikes on 87 pitches. The 25-year-old southpaw yielded three runs or less in each of his first five starts this season but has done so just three times in his last nine outings. Parker now sits at a 4.84 ERA and 1.35 WHIP (across 74.1 innings), which is fourth- and sixth-worst, respectively, among qualified National League starters. He is tentatively lined up to face the Rockies at home next week.

Parker (4-6) took the loss Saturday, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and no walks over six innings against Texas. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

Parker delivered six solid innings, but a lack of run support from the Nationals resulted in his sixth loss of the season. Despite the loss, this was a much-needed bounce-back outing for the southpaw, who entered the game with a 7.99 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over his previous seven starts.
