Baz allowed one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out six across six innings Sunday against the Blue Jays. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Baz dominated early and held the Blue Jays without a hit through three innings. His only true trouble came in the fourth when he escaped a bases-loaded jam by allowing only one earned run. There were other positives from the performance, as Baz didn't allow a home run for the first time in his last four starts. He has also allowed only one walk in each of his last three outings and has complied a 16:3 K:BB across 18.1 innings during that span.

Baz (3-3) earned the win Tuesday against the Red Sox, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk over seven innings. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old flamethrower was outstanding in this 96-pitch performance, generating an impressive 18 whiffs -- with 10 alone coming on his fastball -- en route to his six punchouts. All the damage Boston was able to impart on Baz came via a Triston Casas two-run homer in the second inning. This marks the fifth consecutive outing in which Baz has yielded two or fewer runs, as he's pitched to a 2.03 ERA, 0.74 WHIP and 24:11 K:BB over 31 innings during that span. He is scheduled to make his next start against Toronto at home this weekend.

Baz came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Phillies, giving up two runs on three hits and a walk over 5.1 innings. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

The home side tagged Baz for two runs in the bottom of the first inning, but he bounced back and closed the door for the rest of his outing, leaving the mound with the score tied 2-2. The right-hander tossed 52 of 78 pitches for strikes, and the Rays may have been keeping an eye on his workload after he threw a season-high 103 pitches in his prior start. Baz will look to get back in the win column in his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come at home early next week against the Red Sox.

Baz (2-3) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and three walks over six innings Friday, striking out five and taking a loss against Baltimore.

EDGE Analysis

Baz worked through four shutout frames before coughing up a run in the fifth inning. He then gave up a solo shot to Gunnar Henderson in the sixth. Baz forced 15 swinging strikes, including six with his curveball. He's allowed two or fewer runs in six of his 10 appearances since returning from the injured list. Baz has produced a 3.27 ERA and a 46:23 K:BB across 55 innings. He's currently in line to start in Philadelphia next week.

Baz (2-2) earned the win against the Padres on Saturday, allowing two runs on two hits and three walks with five strikeouts over five innings.

EDGE Analysis

Baz allowed a two-run homer in the first inning and then rebounded with four scoreless frames before being lifted at 78 pitches. The 25-year-old looked healthy after being scratched with the flu Sunday and has now yielded three earned runs or fewer in six of seven outings since the All-Star break. On the season, he owns a 3.49 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 41:20 K:BB across 49 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Twins next week.

Baz (illness) is expected to start Saturday against the Padres, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Baz was scratched from his scheduled start Sunday against the Dodgers, but he played catch Wednesday and is expected to throw a bullpen session Thursday. Assuming the latter goes well, he should be lined up for his return to the rotation this weekend.

Baz is battling the flu and won't start Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Baz is feeling under the weather and won't make his scheduled start. It's unclear if the Rays intend to push Baz back or skip his turn in the rotation entirely, and they have yet to name a replacement starter for Sunday. If Baz gets skipped over, he'll have five days of rest before his next outing -- which is tentatively scheduled to come Saturday against San Diego.

Baz (1-2) allowed three hits and three walks while striking out four over 7.2 shutout innings to earn the win over the Athletics on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Baz gave up more baserunners than Oakland starter Joey Estes, but he was able to keep the hosts off the scoreboard. This was the second outing in a row where Baz reached the seven-inning mark, and he's now logged quality starts in four of his eight outings this season. For the season, he's at a 3.48 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 36:17 K:BB over 44 innings. Baz will have a tougher matchup his next time out, as he's projected for a road start versus the Dodgers.

Baz (0-2) took the loss Tuesday against the Astros, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

While he ultimately came away with the loss Tuesday, it was a solid outing from Baz, who delivered a season-high seven innings after he was tagged for four runs in just 4.1 frames against the Cardinals in his last start. The 25-year-old Baz now has a 4.21 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP and 32:14 K:BB through his first 36.1 innings this season. He's currently slated to face the A's on the road early next week in his next start.

Baz did not factor into the decision in a win over the Cardinals on Thursday, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks over 4.1 innings while striking out two.

EDGE Analysis

Baz was shaky in the first inning, walking the leadoff man and then hitting Willson Contreras with a pitch two batters later before eventually allowing three runs to come across in the frame. The right-hander was then tagged for another run in the third after allowing three consecutive batters to reach with two outs. Baz failed to make it through five innings for the third time in six starts this season, and his two strikeouts marked his second-lowest total of the season. He's also issued multiple free passes in three of his last four outings. The rookie will look to secure his first win of the season when the Rays take on the Astros at home next week.
