Stripling (7-4) allowed three runs on two hits and three walks while striking out eight in six innings to earn the win over the Pirates on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Stripling has bounced back since returning from the injured list in mid-August, posting quality starts in each of his last four outings. He's picked up two wins across that span, and his eight strikeouts Sunday marked his highest total of the season. Since returning to action, the right-hander has posted a 2.59 ERA in 24.1 innings over four outings. He projects to make his next start on the road against Texas next weekend.

Stripling (6-4) took the loss Sunday, allowing three runs on seven hits over six innings against the Angels. He struck out six and did not walk a batter.
EDGE Analysis
All the damage came via the long ball as Stripling surrendered a two-run shot off the bat of Luis Rengifo in the third inning and a solo homer to Kurt Suzuki in the fourth. The 32-year-old was able to finish six innings despite the home runs en route to his third consecutive quality start. He has had a career year as his 2.94 ERA would be the best of his seven-year career. He next lines up to face Pittsburgh next weekend.

Stripling (6-3) picked up the win in Tuesday's 9-3 victory over the Red Sox, allowing one run on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Boston got on the board first in the bottom of the second inning, but Toronto erased the deficit and then some with an eight-run eruption in the top of the third, and Stripling didn't allow a runner to get past second base from there. The right-hander has delivered back-to-back quality starts since returning from an IL stint that cost him the first half of August, and in 12 trips to the mound since rejoining the rotation in early June he sports a sparkling 2.14 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 51:8 K:BB through 63 innings.

Striping didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Orioles, allowing only one hit over 6.1 scoreless innings while striking out seven without walking a batter.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was absolutely dazzling in his return to the mound from a hip issue that had sidelined him for a couple weeks, and Stripling took a perfect game into the seventh inning before Cedric Mullins rapped out a leadoff single. Stripling exited after an incredibly efficient 72 pitches (52), but Austin Voth matched him goose egg for goose egg and the Blue Jays offense didn't break through until the bottom of the seventh. The quality start was Stripling's fourth of the year, and he'll take a 2.93 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 74:15 K:BB through 89 innings into his next outing.

Stripling (hip) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's start against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Stripling was on the injured list since Aug. 3 due to a right glute/hip strain but made a rehab appearance at Triple-A Buffalo last week and struck out three in five scoreless innings. The right-hander will return after a minimal IL stint as Wednesday's starter at home against the Orioles.

Stripling (hip) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Guardians, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stripling delivered five scoreless frames during his rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Friday, and he'll remain on a five-day pitching schedule and rejoin Toronto's rotation in Wednesday's series finale versus Baltimore. The 32-year-old landed on the shelf at the end of July with a hip strain, and he may only have minor workload limitations in his first start back from the IL.

Stripling (hip) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Friday and is expected to throw about five innings, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was originally reported the veteran right-hander would make the rehab start Wednesday, but the outing was instead pushed back a couple days. If all goes well Friday with Buffalo, Stripling could return from the injured list for Toronto sometime next week.

Stripling (hip) will make a rehab start at Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stripling has been sidelined since Aug. 3 due to a right glute/hip strain, but he threw off a mound Monday and has been cleared to return to game action in the minors Friday. Since he hasn't missed much time, it's possible that the right-hander will be cleared to return from the injured list after just one rehab start.

Stripling (hip) threw a bullpen session Monday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stripling landed on the injured list last week, but he is already back up on the bump. His next step will either be a live bullpen session or perhaps a rehab outing.

The Blue Jays will place Stripling on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a right glute/hip strain, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to interim manager John Schneider, the Blue Jays view Stripling's injury as a short-term concern, so he could be ready to go by the time he's first eligible to come off the IL in mid-August. Stripling's upcoming absence immediately validates the Blue Jays' decision to address their starting-pitching depth ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, as new acquisition Mitch White now looks like the leading candidate to fill the opening in the rotation.
