Davies gave up three runs on four hits and two walks over 4.1 innings during Wednesday's win at Miami. He had three strikeouts and did not qualify for the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Davies entered the fifth inning with a 5-2 lead, but he was pulled at 89 pitches with one runner on base only for the bullpen to surrender the lead anyway. The 26-year-old has a 3.77 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 94:48 K:BB through 145.2 innings and lines up to pitch Monday versus San Diego.

Davies (9-7) picked up the win Friday, allowing one run on three hits and a walk over five innings while striking out four in a 7-1 victory over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
The red-hot Nicholas Castellanos touched him up for a solo shot, but otherwise Davies cruised through his five frames before being lifted after 79 pitches (47 strikes). He'll take a 3.69 ERA and 91:46 K:BB through 141.1 innings into his next start Wednesday in Miami.

Davies allowed four hits and one walk while striking out two over 4.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Cubs on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Davies had posted zeros and was one out short of qualifying for the win, but with reinforcements coming Sunday via roster expansion, manager Craig Counsell didn't hesitate to turn to his bullpen early. Back spasms sidelined Davies for a while in August and he's been bit hard by the long ball lately; it may be frustrating for fantasy owners, but Counsell was probably wise not to test his luck. Davies still has just one win since the All-Star break. He faces the Cubs yet again next week in what will be his sixth start against them this season.

Davies (8-7) allowed four runs on four hits with one walk and three strikeouts across four innings while taking a loss against the Diamondbacks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old ran into homer trouble again, as he allowed two long balls in a start for the fourth time in his last five outings. During that stretch, which dates back to July 23, he's lost five straight games and posted a 7.77 ERA. The losing streak has dropped him to 8-7, and he now owns a 3.90 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 85 strikeouts in 131.2 innings this season. Davies will attempt to bounce back again Saturday at the Cubs.

Davies (8-6) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks over five innings Monday, striking out four batters and taking the loss against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
It was Davies' first appearance after spending a little over two weeks on the injured list with back spasms. He allowed one hit and one walk over four scoreless innings before getting into some trouble in the fifth and coughing up two runs. His two-seamer was sitting in the upper-80s as it was before his injury and his ERA still sits at a respectable 3.74. Davies will look to avoid a fifth straight loss Sunday at home against Arizona.

Davies (back) was activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of his start Monday against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
His last start was Aug. 4, so he did not require a rehab assignment. Davies has a 6.23 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 15 strikeouts in 26 innings over five second-half starts.

Davies (back) will come off the injured list to start Monday's game in St. Louis, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
His return was anticipated at some point during the Brewers; current road trip, and the team has now confirmed that Davies will line up for two starts next week, with the second turn coming next Sunday at home against the Diamondbacks. His last start was on Aug. 4, so he did not require a rehab assignment. Davies has a 6.23 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 15 strikeouts in 26 innings over five second-half starts.

Davies (back) is on track to rejoin the Brewers' rotation during their upcoming road trip, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davies is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, and as long as all goes well, he will be cleared to resume pitching for the Brewers. It's not yet clear when Davies will come off the injured list, but based on the Brewers' current probables, Davies figures to be back on the mound at some point between August 18-21.

Davies (back) threw a successful bullpen session Saturday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davies will throw again in the bullpen Sunday and is targeting a return to the rotation during the Brewers' upcoming road trip, which begins Friday. The 26-year-old righty has struggled mightily in his last three outings, taking the loss each game and allowing six home runs while posting an 11.77 ERA and 2.00 WHIP. With teammates Brandon Woodruff and Jhoulys Chacin also on the injured list, Davies' presence in the rotation is needed desperately during the Brewers' late playoff push.

Davies (back) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday, Robert Murray of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear when Davies picked up the injury, but it could help explain his recent struggles; in his past three starts, the right-hander has allowed 18 runs (17 earned) on 20 hits -- including six home runs -- while posting a 10:6 K:BB in 13 innings. Manager Craig Counsell isn't concerned that the issue is a long-term one, per Sophia Minnaert of Fox Sports Wisconsin, though the skipper didn't offer up a timetable for Davies' return. Jake Faria was summoned from the minors in a corresponding move, while the Brewers have yet to announce who will replace Davies in the rotation.
