Lambert didn't factor into the decision against the Diamondbacks on Monday, giving up three earned runs on four hits over five innings, recording one strikeout and walking five in an 8-6 defeat for the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Lambert fared better in this contest than he did in his last start when he was rocked for nine earned by the Astros, but he was still erratic with his control in issuing five free passes. The rookie now sports a 6.75 ERA, a 1.60 WHIP and a 42:21 K:BB through his first 60 big-league innings. He'll take the mound next in a home matchup against the Marlins on Saturday.

Lambert (2-3) took the loss Wednesday, coughing up nine runs on seven hits and four walks over three-plus innings while striking out one as the Rockies were routed 14-3 by the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Jose Altuve and Yuli Gurriel both took the right-hander deep in the first inning, setting the tone for a brutal afternoon. Lambert will carry a 6.87 ERA and 41:16 K:BB through 55 innings into his next start Monday, at home against Arizona.

Lambert tossed six innings, allowing four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five in a no-decision versus the Giants on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Lambert's uneven season continues, as Friday's performance is the fourth time he's allowed four or more runs, although the six innings pitched tied his season high. The 22-year-old owns a 5.71 ERA and 1.46 WHIP across 52 innings this season, adding 40 strikeouts. He'll have a tough task ahead when he takes on the Astros on Wednesday for his next scheduled start.

Lambert allowed two runs on six hits with one walk and four strikeouts across five innings during a no-decision against the Reds on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 22-year-old hasn't won a game since June 11, but he's pitched a little better over his last couple outings, posting a 3.87 ERA in his most recent three starts. He still hasn't pitched much, though, so the couple rough outings he had in late June have elevated his ERA. Overall, Lambert is 2-2 with a 5.67 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 35 strikeouts in 46 innings this season. He will take the mound next at home Friday against the Giants.

Lambert (2-2) allowed three runs on nine hits with one walk and eight strikeouts across 5.1 innings while taking a loss against the Nationals on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
While Lambert did fail to record a quality start, he did work around nine hits to keep the Rockies in the game through six frames. The Rockies, however, couldn't score against Steven Strasburg, and the Colorado bullpen allowed the contest to turn into a blowout. Giving up a lot of hits isn't anything new for Lambert, who's yielded a .308 batting average against. Although the eight strikeouts was his most since his season debut on June 6, Lambert still owns a 5.93 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 31 strikeouts in 41 innings this season. He will pitch next at the Reds on Sunday.

Lambert is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Rather than reshuffle their rotation after the series opener in Washington was rained out, the Rockies will keep their pitching order intact, as Lambert will just be pushed back a day in the schedule. Lambert owns an ugly 6.06 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over his first seven big-league starts, but he's performed far better on the road than he has at Coors Field. Over 12 innings on the road, Lambert has allowed only four runs while holding opponents to a .285 wOBA.

Lambert won't make his scheduled start Monday, as the game has been postponed due to rain, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockies have yet to announce their pitching plans for the rest of the week, but there's a chance Lambert will simply have his outing pushed back to Tuesday. Monday's contest will be made up Wednesday as part of a doubleheader.

Lambert (2-1) took the loss Wednesday as the Rockies fell 4-2 to the Astros, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks over five innings while striking out two.
EDGE Analysis
After a promising beginning to his big-league career, Lambert has now given up at least three runs in each of his last four starts, serving up eight homers with an 8:4 K:BB over 17.2 innings during that rough stretch. Three of those outings have been at Coors Field, but it still looks like the 22-year-old may need more minor-league seasoning. It remains to be seen whether he'll keep his rotation spot after the All-Star break, but even if he does, Lambert's leash is likely to be a short one.

Lambert allowed five runs on nine hits with no walks across 4.2 innings in a no-decision Thursday against the Dodgers. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Lambert allowed a pair of solo home runs in the second inning before conceding three more runs via the long ball in the fifth, when he was removed with two outs. His outing resembled that of Walker Buehler on the other side of this high-scoring affair and he's now allowed 16 earned runs across 12.2 innings over his last three starts. Lambert looks like a different pitcher than the one who impressed in his first two starts, so it remains to be seen if he holds onto his place in the rotation. If he does, he's in line for another tough matchup at home against the Astros.

Lambert didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 5-4 extra-innings loss to the Dodgers, allowing three runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings while striking out one.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie avoided any big rallies but was tagged for single runs in the second, third and fifth innings before hitting the showers with the score knotted 3-3. Lambert will take a 5.85 ERA and 16:4 K:BB through 20 innings into his next start Thursday -- a rematch with the Dodgers back at Coors Field.
