EDGE Analysis

Tanaka's pitch count has slowly but steadily increased -- he threw 66 pitches (42 strikes) in Wednesday's game. He was a bit generous with baserunners, causing him to exit after just four innings. Tanaka has a 2.31 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 11 strikeouts over 11.2 innings this season. The 31-year-old righty should be able to throw 70 pitches in his next start, which is scheduled for Tuesday versus the Rays.
