Tanaka (1-1) picked up the win in Tuesday's 5-3 victory over the Rays, allowing two runs on three hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

The seven strikeouts were a season high for Tanaka, who completed six innings for the first time in 2020 en route to his first win. Despite the lack of success in the win column, the 31-year-old is having a strong campaign, posting a 3.38 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 24:4 K:BB through 26.2 innings. He'll try to keep rolling in his next outing Sunday in Baltimore.

Tanaka allowed three hits and no walks while striking out four across five scoreless innings in the second game of the team's doubleheader Wednesday against Atlanta. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka dominated the Braves, allowing only a trio of singles in his five innings of work. He was pulled after only 66 pitches, but felt as if he was running out of energy after the relatively few number of pitches, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports. Tanaka has completed five innings of work in only two of his five starts this season, though they have been high quality, as he's maintained a 3.48 ERA with a 17:3 K:BB across 20.2 frames. He is in line to draw his next start Tuesday against Tampa Bay.

Tanaka is set to make his next start Wednesday in Atlanta, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka was denied two starts last week after the Yankees had their entire weekend series with the Mets postponed, and with Gerrit Cole set to pitch Tuesday in the team's first game of the current week, the 31-year-old righty will have to wait until next week before he lines up for another two step. Through four outings this season, Tanaka has reached five innings just once and has supplied a 4.60 ERA and 1.34 WHIP.

Tanaka (0-1) took the loss Tuesday as the Yankees were downed 6-3 by the Rays, surrendering six runs (five earned) on eight hits over four innings. He struck out two without walking a batter.

EDGE Analysis

The eight hits nearly doubled the total Tanaka has given up this season, and they weren't from soft contact -- five of them went for extra bases, including homers by Brandon Lowe and Austin Meadows. Tanaka will take a 4.60 ERA and 13:3 K:BB through 15.2 innings into his next outing Sunday, on the road against the Mets.

Tanaka allowed two runs on five hits and two walks and struck out three in four innings Wednesday versus Atlanta. He did not factor in the decision.

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.

Tanaka tossed five scoreless innings in Friday's loss to the Rays but didn't factor into the decision. He allowed one hit and no walks while striking out five.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka continues to build back up to a full pitch count after a concussion forced him to miss the start of the season. He was incredibly sharp in a relatively short outing during Friday's pitching duel as he allowed just one baserunner over five innings. However, the Yankees were unable to provide any run support, forcing the right-hander to settle for a no-decision once again. Tanaka's next start should come at home Wednesday against the Braves.

Tanaka allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk over 2.2 innings during Saturday's 5-2 win over Boston. He struck out three and did now qualify for the decision.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran right-hander wasn't especially sharp Saturday, but overall it was a solid performance after missing most of summer camp after being hit in the head by a liner in live batting practice. Tanaka should continue ramping up toward his traditional workload, so he should be able to reach around 60 pitches his next time out.

Tanaka (concussion) was activated as expected ahead of his scheduled start against the Red Sox on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka's preseason preparation was interrupted after he was hit in the head by a liner in live batting practice back in early July, though he won't wind up missing more than one turn in the rotation. He's unlikely to handle anything close to a full starter's workload in his first start of the year, however, as he threw just 35-40 pitches in his final simulated game Sunday.

Tanaka (concussion) is scheduled to start Saturday against the Red Sox, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Tanaka is set to make his season debut this weekend after missing the beginning of the campaign while working back from a concussion. The right-hander threw 35-to-40 pitches in a simulated game last weekend, so he'll presumably be on a pitch count for his first start of the shortened 2020 season.

Tanaka (concussion) is expected to make his season debut this weekend against the Red Sox, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka's preseason buildup was put on hold when he suffered a concussion back on July 4 after taking a line drive off the head, though he's been symptom-free and able to work out for quite some time. He threw 35-to-40 pitches in a simulated game Sunday, so he'll presumably be on a pitch count for his season debut.
