Eovaldi (6-2) picked up the win in Saturday's 3-1 victory over the Marlins, allowing four hits and a walk over 5.1 scoreless innings while striking out seven.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't the most efficient outing, as Eovaldi fired 101 pitches (71 strikes) and still fell short of a quality start, but the right-hander held the Miami offense firmly in check while he was on the mound. Eovaldi will take a 4.01 ERA and 58:14 K:BB through 60.2 innings into his next outing.

Eovaldi (5-2) earned the win over Philadelphia on Saturday, hurling 5.1 innings and allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander didn't dominate -- he induced only nine swinging strikes and gave up three extra-base hits -- but he did enough to keep the Phillies mostly at bay and secure his fifth win of the campaign. Eovaldi has alternated good and bad starts of late, allowing two or fewer runs three times in his past six outings but yielding 15 combined earned runs across 14.1 frames over the other three appearances. He's tentatively projected to make his next start at home against Miami next Saturday.

Eovaldi allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six in five innings in Sunday's loss to the Angels. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Eovaldi was hit hard in the second inning of Sunday's matchup, but he was still in line for the win when he left the game after the fifth inning. However, Matt Barnes gave up a two-run homer in the ninth inning that forced Eovaldi to settle for a no-decision. Eovaldi has now posted a 4.50 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in 50 innings this season. The right-hander tentatively lines up to start on the road against Philadelphia on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis
The right-hander tossed 102 pitches (65 strikes) while delivering his third quality start of the season, exiting the game with the score tied 1-1. Eovaldi will carry a 4.20 ERA and 41:10 K:BB through 45 innings into his next outing, as he looks to last at least six innings in consecutive starts for the first time all year.

Eovaldi allowed six runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out five over 4.1 innings in a victory over Detroit on Thursday. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Facing the Tigers for the first time since 2015, Eovaldi just couldn't find a way to silence their bats. The 31-year-old gave-up a season-worst six runs during his shortest start of the year. It was the first time this year Eovaldi was unable to pitch at least five innings. Luckily, his teammates made up for it offensively, racking up 12 runs en route to the win. The right-hander will bring a 4.62 ERA and 1.23 WHIP into his next projected start Tuesday against Oakland.

Eovaldi (4-2) allowed one run on four hits and two walks over six frames Friday, striking out five and earning a win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Eovaldi didn't have too much pressure on him Friday as he took the mound in the first inning with a 4-0 lead already in place. Brock Holt drove in a run with an RBI single in the second but the Rangers only put one baserunner in scoring position after that. He lowered his season ERA to 3.63 through 34.2 innings this season. Eovaldi is slated to face Detroit at home next week.

Eovaldi (3-2) picked up the loss Saturday against Seattle, giving up five runs (four earned) in five innings, striking out three while walking one and allowing seven hits.
EDGE Analysis
The Mariners jumped on Eovaldi early and often. Four runners reached base in the first inning on three singles and a hit by pitch, with Eovaldi lucky to escape with just one run on the board. He gave up three more in the second thanks for a Kyle Seager triple and a wild pitch, with one more run scoring on an error in the fifth. Eovaldi's first four outings were strong enough that he still owns a 3.77 ERA on the year.

Eovaldi (3-1) secured the win after allowing four runs on nine hits while striking out 10 across 6.1 innings Monday against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Eovaldi gave up the first run of the contest in the top of the first inning on a double to left, but the Red Sox would respond with six runs in the bottom half of the frame. The right-hander pounded the strike zone in his afternoon outing, firing 75 of 100 pitches for strikes. He would later exit with a 10-4 lead. Through four starts in 2021, he owns a 3.04 ERA and 1.06 WHIP with a 24:4 K:BB across 23.2 innings. Eovaldi's next start lines up for Saturday against Seattle.

Eovaldi (2-1) allowed two runs on five hits while striking out five across five innings in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Twins. He earned the win.
EDGE Analysis
Eovaldi had allowed just one run in each of his first two starts of the season, and while he was unable to keep that streak going, he still limited the damage to just two runs and five baserunners before departing the contest. Eovaldi now owns a 2.08 ERA across his first 17 innings and will look to keep this strong nun going in his next scheduled start at home against the White Sox on April 19.

Eovaldi (1-1) earned the win Wednesday against the Rays, giving up one run on three hits and three walks while fanning seven across seven innings.
EDGE Analysis
Eovaldi allowed just one run across 5.1 innings in his season debut last week, and he delivered another strong performance this time around -- but now he managed to earn the win while going deep into the game and qualifying for a quality start. Eovaldi has now allowed only one run in each of his first two starts of the campaign and will look to keep the run going in his next scheduled turn in the rotation, set for April 13 on the road against the Twins.
