George Kirby - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Dealt 11th loss Kirby (9-11) allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits and a walk while striking out five over 6.2 innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Athletics.

Impact Kirby has now allowed at least four runs in four of his last five starts, making him somewhat fortunate to have a 1-2 record in that span. The right-hander gave up all of the runs between the second and fourth innings, and the Mariners' offense gave him nearly nothing in terms of support. For the year, Kirby is now at a 4.18 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 133:37 K:BB across 159.1 innings through 27 starts. His next start is projected to be a rematch with the Athletics in Sacramento.

Uneven results continue Kirby took a no-decision against the Red Sox on Monday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out two.

Impact The ball was flying around Fenway Park on Monday early and often, and Kirby was tagged for four extra-base hits on the evening. The right-hander has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option since coming back from the All-Star break, giving up at least five runs in four of his last eight outings while yielding less than two in the other half. He'll be aiming for some consistency in a favorable home matchup with the Athletics this weekend, carrying a 4.19 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 128:36 K:BB over 152.2 innings.

The 28-year-old Kirby lowered his ERA to 4.02 on the season with a 1.33 WHIP and 126:34 K:BB across 25 starts (147.2 innings) this season. He's currently lined up to face the Red Sox on the road his next time out.

HIt hard in loss Kirby (8-10) took the loss against the Brewers on Thursday, allowing six runs on nine hits and two walks with three strikeouts over 3.1 innings.

Impact Kirby surrendered all six runs in a nightmare first inning, and he allowed 12 hard-hit balls overall while generating just six whiffs on 84 pitches. It continued an inconsistent year for the 28-year-old, who's now allowed 11 earned runs over his past two starts after yielding just one earned run through his first two August outings. He owns a 4.18 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 117:33 K:BB across 140 innings this season and will aim to rebound in a home matchup with the Phillies next week.

Struggles in no-decision Kirby did not factor into the decision in Friday's 10-7 extra-inning loss to the Astros, allowing five runs on eight hits and three walks with two strikeouts over 4.2 innings.

Impact The damage was done early, as Kirby surrendered a solo homer in the first before enduring a four-run second inning. He labored overall, issuing three walks for just the third time this season while generating only seven whiffs on 99 pitches. The 28-year-old has now posted a 4.39 ERA through five second-half outings, though 12 of the 13 runs he's allowed have come in two blow-up starts. He'll take a 3.89 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 114:31 K:BB across 136.2 innings this season into a road matchup with the Brewers next week.

Settles for no-decision Kirby allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings in a no-decision versus the Rays on Saturday.

Impact Kirby was steady, though he wasn't all that efficient, needing 99 pitches (63 strikes) to get through his five frames. He was again let down by his offense, getting just one run of support while he was on the mound. Kirby has allowed two runs or fewer in six of his last seven outings but has just three wins in that span. He's at a 3.68 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 112:28 K:BB across 132 innings over 22 starts this season. Kirby's next start is projected to be on the road in Houston.
