Corbin did not factor into the decision against the Cubs on Tuesday after surrendering three runs on nine hits and a pair of walks while striking out four across five innings.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first start against the Cubs in a Nationals uniform, Corbin was unable to silence their bats, scattering a season-worst nine hits in the process. Chicago made its way onto the scoreboard in the third frame due to a two-run single off the bat of Willson Contreras. Trouble struck again in the fifth inning with another RBI single, this time by Kris Bryant. Corbin, who had been activated from the paternity list ahead of Tuesday's start, has compiled a 6.10 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across eight starts this season. The southpaw is projected to take the mound again at home Sunday against Baltimore.

Corbin was activated from the paternity list as expected ahead of his scheduled start Tuesday against the Cubs, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Corbin was away from the team for four days, which coincided nicely with the gap between his starts. The lefty's 6.19 ERA on the season remains quite poor, but that's mainly the productive of a disastrous pair of outings to begin the year, as he owns a 3.00 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over his last four trips to the mound. Paolo Espino was optioned in a corresponding move.

Corbin was placed on the paternity list Friday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Corbin returned to form with a scoreless, six-inning gem Tuesday against the Cardinals. The 31-year-old was completely locked in as he did not allow a walk and retired 13 of the final 14 batters he faced. It was a very uplifting outing for Corbin after he had allowed 15 earned runs, four homers and sported a 6:7 K:BB across 6.1 innings over his first two starts.
