Corbin (6-9) allowed five runs (four earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out four in 5.1 innings to take the loss against the Orioles on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin tossed three scoreless frames to begin Friday's contest, but he struggled to contain the Orioles' offense after the third inning. The southpaw picked up a win in his final start before the All-Star break, but he's now given up at least five runs in each of his last two outings, and he's been charged with losses in four of his last five appearances. Corbin tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Corbin (6-7) earned the win over San Diego on Wednesday, tossing six innings and allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out three.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw didn't dominate in the contest -- he threw only 66 of 106 pitches for strikes and did not record a single 1-2-3 inning -- but he did enough to notch both a quality start and the win. The victory snapped a two-start losing streak and pushed his record to 6-7 on the season. Corbin finished the first half of the campaign with a disappointing 5.40 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 7.0 K/9. He isn't likely to pitch again until Washington's series at home against San Diego immediately following the All-Star break.

Corbin (5-7) was tagged with the loss Thursday against the Dodgers after allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits and a walk while fanning two across 4.2 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin looked in control through the first three innings but the wheels came off shortly after, and he was lifted shortly after giving up a grand slam to Max Muncy -- his second homer of that inning. The southpaw was coming off back-to-back quality starts, but he was unable to repeat that feat against one of the best offenses in the National League. The 31-year-old now owns a 4.58 ERA since the beginning of June (six starts) and is scheduled to pitch again next week on the road against the Padres.

Corbin (5-6) allowed three runs on five hits over six innings in a loss to Miami on Saturday. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin was touched up for a pair of runs in the second inning and gave up a Jon Berti home run in the fifth. He did enough to pick up a quality start, and it was his first outing without issuing a walk since mid-May. Corbin now owns a 5.33 ERA and 1.37 WHIP with a 68:28 K:BB over 82.2 innings of work.

Corbin (5-5) allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out seven in six innings to earn the win against the Mets on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin gave up home runs in the second and seventh innings Sunday, but he got enough run support from the Nationals and picked up his second consecutive win as a result. The southpaw has now posted a 5.40 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 76.2 innings this year. He tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Miami on Saturday.

Corbin (4-5) earned the win Tuesday against the Pirates after giving up a run on eight hits with seven strikeouts and a walk across 8.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first time since May 13 the veteran southpaw allowed fewer than three runs as he delivered his longest start of the season while generating 14 swinging strikes on 110 pitches. Corbin has a 5.60 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 55:27 K:BB across 70.2 innings, and he tentatively lines up to face the Mets on Sunday.

Corbin pitched five innings against Tampa Bay on Wednesday, allowing three runs on three hits and four walks while striking out three. He did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin didn't have his best stuff in the outing -- he threw only 50 of 93 pitches for strikes and tied a season high with four walks -- but he limited the damage by holding the Rays to three hits. The southpaw has been mediocre but consistent over his past five outings, pitching between 5.0 and 5.2 innings and giving up either three of our four runs in each contest. He holds a 6.21 ERA overall this season, second worst among all qualified starters. His next start will likely come at home against Pittsburgh early next week.

Corbin (3-5) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out four in 5.1 innings to take the loss against Atlanta on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin's recent rough stretch continued Thursday, and he's now given up at least three runs in each of his last four outings. He began Thursday's contest by tossing five scoreless frames, but he gave up four runs to begin the sixth inning and was put in line for the loss as a result. The southpaw has now posted a 6.28 ERA and 1.52 WHIP in 57.1 innings across 11 starts this year. He tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Tampa Bay on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis
The left-hander had a rough start and served up a two-run homer to Avisail Garcia during the opening frame, and Milwaukee tacked on two more runs during the third inning. Corbin has a 6.23 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 41:20 K:BB over 52 innings (10 starts) in 2021.

Corbin (3-3) allowed four runs on 11 hits and two walks while striking out three in 5.2 innings to earn the win against the Orioles on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin struggled early in Sunday's contest, as he allowed four consecutive singles to begin the game and gave up three earned runs in the top of the first inning. However, the Nationals gave him just enough run support to return to the win column. The southpaw has recorded a 6.13 ERA and 1.55 WHIP in 47 innings this season. Corbin tentatively lines up to make his next start at home against the Brewers on Saturday.
