Buehler didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Giants despite tossing 7.1 innings of one-run ball, allowing five hits and a walk while fanning nine.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler did everything he could to come away with his 11th win of the season, but the bullpen surrendered four runs in the top of the ninth and that forced the right-hander to settle with a no-decision. The 26-year-old is in the midst of a career-best season, though, posting a career-best 2.31 ERA and a 0.91 WHIP while also tossing three straight quality starts. His next outing is slated to happen next week on the road against the same opponent, this time in San Francisco.

Buehler (10-1) allowed two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out eight across seven innings, earning the win over the Rockies on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler allowed a pair of doubles that led to two runs against him. However, he provided another solid performance for his 16th quality start of the season, leading all of baseball. The 26-year-old has allowed just five earned runs over his last four starts. He carries a 2.37 ERA and a 0.91 WHIP with 122 strikeouts in 121.1 innings. His next start is scheduled Thursday against the Giants.

Buehler (9-1) won Saturday's 22-1 victory over Arizona, allowing no runs on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts in six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler was staked to a nine-run lead after two innings and cruised to an easy ninth victory. His most troublesome inning was actually the first but a five spot by Los Angeles in the bottom of the inning eased all concerns. The 26-year-old heads into the All-Star break with a 2.36 ERA and a 26:114 K:BB ratio.

Buehler gave up four runs (three earned) on five hits and two walks over five innings during Monday's 5-4 loss to the Marlins. He had six strikeouts and didn't factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Remarkably, it's the first time through 17 starts this season the right-hander failed to complete six frames. Miami struck for three runs during the third inning on three hits, an error and a hit by pitch and tacked on another run in the fourth. Buehler has a 2.49 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 107:24 K:BB across 108.1 innings, and he lines up for one more start before the All-Star break versus the Diamondbacks this weekend.

Buehler (8-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Giants after giving up an unearned run on three hits and a walk across 6.2 innings, striking out seven.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler has tossed nine straight quality starts and continues to be one of the best pitchers in the National League, posting a 1.53 ERA, a 0.90 WHIP and a 54:19 K:BB during that nine-game span. The righty has also fanned at least six in three straight outings. He is slated to pitch again next week on the road against the Marlins.

Buehler (7-1) took the loss in Thursday's 4-0 defeat at the hands of the Cubs, allowing three runs on five hits with two walks and six strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler and Chicago starter Zach Davies were engaged in a tight pitchers' duel until he allowed a Willson Contreras two-run homer in the sixth to go down 3-0. He still pitched well enough to earn a quality start but that would be far from enough as Los Angeles was no-hit by the Chicago staff. The loss was Buehler's first since 2019 and snaps a 23-start lossless stretch for the 26-year-old right hander.

Buehler (7-0) earned the win over Arizona on Saturday, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 7.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander made it through 7.1 frames without allowing a hit before David Peralta led off the eighth inning with a single. Buehler was pulled two batters later after a Nick Ahmed single, and he was charged with a pair of runs after both runners came around to score following his departure. Though Buehler's fantastic outing won't enter the no-hit annals, he tied the Dodgers' franchise record with his 23rd straight start without being charged with a loss. He'll carry a 7-0 record, 2.38 ERA and 88:19 K:BB into his next start, which lines up to come at home against the Cubs next week.

Buehler (6-0) fired six scoreless innings on five hits and three walks while striking out five to earn the win over the Rangers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Buehler threw 64 of his 96 pitches for strikes in his six scoreless frames. He is 5-0 in his last six starts with just five runs allowed. The 26-year-old leads the Dodgers rotation with a 2.38 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP in 83.1 innings. However, his 8.3 K/9 to this point in the season is the lowest rate of his career. His next start is scheduled for Saturday in Arizona.

Buehler (5-0) earned the win Tuesday after blanking the Pirates across seven innings. He allowed two hits and a walk while striking out two.
EDGE Analysis
Despite an uncharacteristically season-low two punchouts, it was another gem of a performance for Buehler, who blanked his opponent for the third time this season while pitching at least seven innings for the fifth time. The 26-year-old did have a close call in the first frame after Ke'Bryan Hayes swatted a foul pole-hugging solo home run, which was reversed after the official replay review showed Hayes failing to tag first base. With the win, Buehler extends his streak of regular-season starts without a loss to 20, the longest in the majors, while his WHIP of 0.91 checks in at 11th overall. Buehler lines up to make his next start at home Sunday against Texas.

Buehler (4-0) earned the win over St. Louis on Wednesday, pitching six innings and allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out eight.
EDGE Analysis
The outing won't go down as one of Buehler's best this season -- he allowed three runs for the first time in four starts -- but it was more than adequate to secure a victory in a game during which Los Angeles put up 11 first-inning runs. The right-hander ran his record to a perfect 4-0 and extended his streak of regular-season starts without a loss to 19, the longest in the majors. He has posted a 2.82 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 70:13 K:BB across 70.1 innings this season to further cement his place among the league's top starters. Buehler's next start is expected to come at Pittsburgh next week.
