Corbin (13-7) allowed one run on three hits and four walks over six innings Monday, striking out six batters and earning a win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin's line may not look too impressive but he kept Philadelphia off the scoreboard for five innings before allowing his first and only run in the sixth. After issuing four free passes Monday, he's up to 17 walks in 28 innings this month. The 30-year-old southpaw owns a 230:68 K:BB for the season. Corbin will make his final regular-season start of 2019 at home against Cleveland on Saturday.

Corbin isn't listed among the Nationals' probable starters for the team's three-game series in Miami over the weekend, Byron Kerr of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Since Corbin had pitched in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Cardinals, the Nationals could have brought him back Sunday on his normal four days' rest, but No. 5 starter Austin Voth will instead get the nod for the series finale with the Marlins. The extra day off should help Corbin recover from Tuesday's 110-pitch outing while also allowing the Nationals to deploy the southpaw against a direct competitor in the NL wild-card race instead of the last-place Marlins. Corbin now lines up for his next turn in Monday's series opener with the Phillies in Washington.

Corbin (13-7) picked up the win in Tuesday's 6-2 victory over the Cardinals, allowing two unearned runs on five hits and four walks over six innings. He struck out 11.
EDGE Analysis
The 11 whiffs tied his season high, a figure Corbin last reached July 7. The southpaw has delivered quality starts in seven of his last eight trips to the mound, posting a 2.16 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 60:20 K:BB through 50 innings over that stretch. Corbin will look to keep rolling in his next outing Sunday in Miami.

Corbin (12-7) got the win against the Twins on Thursday, giving up three earned runs on nine hits over six innings, striking out three, and walking none as the Nationals prevailed 12-6.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin kept on rolling against Minnesota, tossing his seventh quality start in his last eight outings and nabbing his 12th win of the season. He's having a stellar campaign for the Nationals, posting a 3.20 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 213:60 K:BB across 185.2 innings. The left-hander will look to keep it going in his next start, which will come on the road against the Cardinals on Tuesday.

Corbin (11-7) took the loss Friday, giving up two runs (one earned) on three hits and six walks over five innings while striking out nine as the Nationals fell 4-3 to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty wasn't at his sharpest -- the six free passes were a season high for Corbin -- but he generated a whopping 20 swinging strikes among his 107 pitches (63 total strikes) and fanned at least eight batters for the fifth time in his last six starts, a stretch during which he's posted a 2.13 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 46:16 K:BB over 38 innings. Corbin will look to get back into the win column Thursday in Minnesota.

Corbin (11-6) allowed three runs on three hits and three walks while striking out eight over six innings of work as he cruised to an easy win against the Marlins on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin had a historic day on the mound as he became the third pitcher on the Nationals' staff to record 200 strikeouts during the 2019 season. He had a particularly good day overall as he worked four shutout innings before running into some trouble in the fifth, where he gave up all three of his runs on a Starlin Castro solo home run, an Austin Dean RBI double, and a Bryan Holaday RBI sacrifice fly. He then went on to pitch a scoreless sixth and was done for the day after 95 pitches. The southpaw now owns a 3.19 ERA to go along with a 201:54 K:BB ratio across 174.2 innings in 2019. He slated to start next against the Braves in Atlanta on Friday.

Corbin is scheduled to make his next start Sunday against the Marlins, Brittany Ghiroli of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Corbin looked on track to make only one start (Tuesday against the Orioles) this week, but he'll now get a two step after manager Dave Martinez elected to shorten the rotation to four men on account of Thursday's off day. The lefty was unable to come away with a win despite a strong showing versus Baltimore (seven innings of two-run ball), but he'll have a good opportunity to claim his 11th victory when he takes on a 47-85 Marlins squad.

Corbin (10-6) struck out nine while allowing two runs on four hits with zero walks across seven innings while taking a loss against the Orioles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
For the fourth straight start, Corbin yielded two runs or fewer but again he didn't receive a win for his efforts. He has one victory in his past four outings despite posting a 1.67 ERA. Corbin has taken a lot of no-decisions this season, so this was his first loss since June 11. Overall, he owns a 3.15 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 193 strikeouts in 168.2 innings this season. Corbin will face the Mets at home in his next start Sunday.

Corbin (10-5) picked up the win Wednesday, giving up three hits and two walks over eight scoreless innings while striking out four in an 11-1 victory over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw didn't allow a runner past second base and left the game after 93 pitches (63 strikes), but Tanner Rainey blew the combined shutout in the ninth. Corbin will take a 3.17 ERA and 184:51 K:BB through 161.2 innings into his next start Tuesday, at home against the Orioles.

Corbin allowed one run on seven hits with four walks and eight strikeouts across six innings during a no-decision against the Brewers on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The four walks hurt his WHIP and the offense didn't support him enough to earn the win, but it was a good night for the ERA and strikeout categories. Corbin has eight strikeouts in three of his last four outings, but that success has been around a lot longer than that. Since June 19, Corbin is 4-0 with a 2.37 ERA and 86 strikeouts in 68.1 innings across 11 outings. Overall, he is 9-5 with a 3.34 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 180 strikeouts in 153.2 innings this season. Corbin is scheduled to pitch next at the Pirates on Wednesday.
