EDGE Analysis

Tanaka pounded the strike zone in Sunday's matchup, firing 66 of 94 pitches for strikes before being lifted with a 1-0 lead. The 30-year-old right-hander was able to bounce back from a poor showing his last time out, surrendering five runs on 10 hits against the Orioles (5.1 innings). Following his most recent outing, Tanaka owns a 4.64 ERA and 1.26 WHIP with a 114:34 K:BB over 137.2 frames.

Tanaka's next start will come Sunday against the Blue Jays, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees have elected to roll with an opener for Saturday's matchup, which is the day Tanaka was scheduled to pitch. Instead, he'll toe the rubber for the series finale.

Tanaka surrendered five runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out four over 5.1 innings Monday against the Orioles. He didn't factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka allowed just one run through the first five innings of his night, though the Orioles struck for five runs in the sixth, four of which belonged to 30-year-old right-hander. Perhaps he pounded the strike zone too much in this one, firing 60 of 92 pitches for strikes. Tanaka owns a 4.93 ERA and 1.32 WHIP with a 110:34 K:BB over 129.2 innings this season following Monday's night's performance.

Tanaka allowed two runs on five hits and three walks over four innings during Wednesday's 7-5 win against the Diamondbacks. He struck out four and didn't qualify for the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka started the day with four scoreless frames but gave up two singles to start the fifth before a rain delay ended his outing, and both baserunners came around to score after play was resumed. The 30-year-old has a 4.78 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 106:32 K:BB through 124.1 innings and next lines up to pitch Monday at Baltimore.

Tanaka (7-6) lasted just 3.1 innings in Thursday's loss to the Red Sox, surrendering 12 runs on 12 hits and three walks while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

The good news is that Tanaka actually made it out of the first inning, unlike his last start against the Red Sox in London. The bad news is that the extended outing yielded a season-high 12 runs, and it took 87 pitches to barely get through three frames. Once again, a tough first inning accounted for the bulk of the damage as Tanaka surrendered seven runs, including a 451-foot, three-run blast to Xander Bogaerts before recording any outs. It was the first time in franchise history that a Yankees starter allowed 12 (or more) runs while recording 10 (or fewer) outs. Despite the rough night, the loss was Tanaka's first since a June 4 start at Toronto. The right-hander now owns a 4.79 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 102:29 K:BB and will look to bounce back Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.

Tanaka (7-5) allowed five runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out three over six innings in a win over the Rockies on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka wasn't at his best, inducing just six swinging strikes on 85 pitches, but he was better than Antonio Senzatela and company on the other side. The right-hander's strikeout rate has dropped off this season, and his home-run issues have been exacerbated as the weather's warmed up (11 homers in his last 52.2 innings). Tanaka lines up to face the Red Sox in Boston next week, his second start against the Red Sox this season.

Tanaka (6-5) secured the win after surrendering two runs on four hits while striking out five over six innings Sunday against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Tanaka gave up a pair of solo homers in the fifth inning, but he managed to keep Toronto off the board for the remainder of his outing. The 30-year-old right-hander had given up 10 runs over his last two starts heading into Sunday's series finale, so it was positive to see him turn things around on the hill. He'll head into his next outing with a 3.81 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with a 95:25 K:BB across 111 innings.

Tanaka did not factor into the decision Friday against the Rays after allowing four runs on six hits over 6.1 innings of work, striking out five while walking two.

EDGE Analysis

The outing was far better than Tanaka's debacle in London last weekend but still wasn't particularly strong. Tanaka allowed solo shots in the fourth and fifth and left after allowing two baserunners in the seventh, both of whom would come around to score. The veteran will enter the break with a 3.86 ERA, though his 20.8 percent strikeout rate is his lowest mark since 2016.

Tanaka allowed six runs on four hits and two walks while recording only two outs in Saturday's 17-13 win over the Red Sox. He did not record a strikeout or factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

The first game in London saw neither team's starter make it out of the opening inning, with Tanaka delivering his worst start of the season by a significant margin. The 30-year-old now has a 3.74 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 85:23 K:BB over 98.2 innings this season, and he should have one more start at Tampa Bay next weekend prior to the All-Star break..

Tanaka didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Astros, giving up two runs on eight hits and a walk over six innings while striking out one.

EDGE Analysis

While it wasn't as impressive as the shutout he hurled in his last trip to the mound, Tanaka still delivered his ninth quality start of the season and exited in line for his sixth win, only for the lead to change hands a couple of times in the late innings. He'll take a 3.21 ERA and 85:21 K:BB through 98 innings into his next outing, set for next weekend's series in London against the Red Sox.
