Koehler (9-13) gave up five runs on three hits and five walks while striking out three over three innings Sunday, but escaped with a no-decision in a 10-7 loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
He threw just 38 of 78 pitches for strikes, and Koehler ends the campaign on a down note after posting a 6.31 ERA over six starts in September and October. His 4.33 ERA on the season doesn't look too bad, but his 1.47 WHIP and 4.23 BB/9 will likely need major improvement if he's going to have a role in the Marlins' 2017 rotation.

Koehler (9-13) was lit up for four runs on six hits -- including two homers -- over just 3.2 innings Tuesday against the Mets. He walked four and struck out three in the loss.
EDGE Analysis
Koehler has now allowed seven home runs over his last four starts (17.2 innings). The right-hander surrendered a deep fly in just six of his 23 starts to begin the season. Since then, Koehler has given up a longball in eight of nine outings. The epidemic is devastating when considering the 30-year-old owns a 1.45 WHIP. It seems that his risky style of working out of jams has finally caught up to him.

Koehler (9-1) was removed after 85 pitches over four innings Wednesday against the Nationals, having allowed four runs (three earned) on two hits, three walks, and three strikeouts. He took the loss.
EDGE Analysis
It was a bizarre stat line for Koehler, who allowed just two hits in the start, although one was a three-run homer. Koehler is usually one of the Marlins' most consistent starters, having gone at least five innings his last 11 starts. He has struggled a bit with command of late, however, walking 13 batters over his last five starts. Koehler's ERA rose to 4.02 with the short outing, and he'll look to get that number back below four when he takes the hill against the Mets on Monday.

Koehler didn't factor into the decision on Friday versus the Phillies, striking out seven and giving up two earned runs on five hits and three walks over five innings-plus.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran ran into some control problems, firing 101 pitches over just over five innings. Koehler didn't run into as much trouble with the long ball as in his last start, giving up just a solo shot to Ryan Howard. The 30-year-old has pitched reasonably well over his last 11 starts, but has just one victory since Aug. 3. He'll try again for his third consecutive season with double-digit victories when he takes on the Nationals next Wednesday.

Koehler (9-11) allowed four runs on six hits, struck out four and walked two over five innings in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was definitely not on his game, but it mattered very little with the way Rich Hill pitched, as he didn't allow a base runner through seven innings. Three of the six hits Koehler yielded Saturday were home runs, which is a season high. Through June, he had allowed just six bombs, but Koehler has now tossed up 12 homers since July 4. He will look to fix his long ball problem Friday against Philadelphia.

Koehler fired six scoreless innings Sunday versus the Indians, striking out six and walking just two en route to a no-decision.
EDGE Analysis
Koehler had allowed eight runs combined and suffered a pair of losses in his last two starts, and although he pitched exceptionally well Sunday, the bullpen blew a lead after he was removed from the game, costing him a shot at a victory. He also did well to limit baserunners Sunday, something that has not come naturally this season, and his WHIP now sits at 1.41 despite a respectable 3.87 ERA. He will face the Dodgers in his next scheduled start Saturday.

Koehler (9-10) allowed five runs on 10 hits and three walks over five innings Tuesday against the Mets, striking out six and taking his second straight loss.
EDGE Analysis
Koehler struggled from the get-go on Tuesday, giving up three runs in the bottom of the first to relinquish a 2-0 lead his offense handed him in the top half of the first. Koehler has been decidedly mediocre in 2016, going 9-10 with a 4.02 ERA , 1.43 WHIP, and a 7.26 K/9 rate. He has been somewhat better in the second half however, posting 3.33 and 3.50 ERAs in July and August respectively. Koehler has also walked just 17 batters over the past two months after going through a rough stretch in late May where he walked 20 batters over four starts. He'll look to bounce back in his next start against the Indians on Sunday.

Koehler (9-9) pitched six innings, allowing four runs, seven hits and two walks while striking out six Royals in Thursday's loss.
EDGE Analysis
Thursday marked Koehler's first loss since July 16 -- a stretch of seven starts -- and ended a six-game streak of quality outings. On the bright side, Koehler's six strikeouts matched his second-highest total since late-June and gave him 31 K's over his last 36 innings. The righty will look to rebound when he takes the hill for his next start Tuesday against the Mets.

Koehler tossed a quality start Friday, firing six innings of two-run ball, but was left out of the decision during the 6-5 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
That's six-straight quality starts for the veteran hurler who has compiled a 1.62 ERA and 0.85 WHIP over his past 39 innings pitched. He allowed the two runs on eight hits while striking out two. For the year, Koehler sits with a 3.82 EA and 1.39 WHIP with 109 strikeouts in 139 innings pitched. He'll look to continue his late season surge Thursday against Kansas City.

Koehler (9-8) allowed three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings while striking out five Sunday but came away with a no-decision in a 5-4 win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
That's now five straight quality starts and 13 on the season for Koehler, who's been a very steady presence for the surprising Marlins in the middle of their rotation. He's look to make it six straight QS when he takes on the Pirates in Pittsburgh on Saturday.
