Hit hard in eighth loss Burrows (3-8) took the loss Sunday against the Athletics, allowing five runs (four earned) on eight hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out three.

Impact Burrows has really struggled to keep the ball in the park this year, serving up two home runs in seven of his 13 starts. The 26-year-old right-hander has thrown at least five innings in all but one of his outings, but he's given up fewer than three runs just four times so far. Burrows will carry an underwhelming 5.77 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 60:28 K:BB over 73.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance in Kansas City.

Punished by long ball again Tuesday Burrows (3-7) took the loss Tuesday against the Pirates, allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits and five walks while striking out three over five innings.

Impact Burrows' biggest issue once again was the home run ball, as all five of his earned runs came via two long balls. Endy Rodriguez tagged him for a two-run shot in the second inning before Oneil Cruz launched a three-run homer in the sixth. The right-hander has now surrendered 15 homers across 12 starts this season and continues to struggle to limit damage. Burrows currently owns the highest qualified ERA in MLB at 5.66 to go along with a 1.54 WHIP and 57:26 K:BB across 68.1 innings. He's scheduled to face the Athletics in his next start.

Goes seven innings in win Burrows (3-6) allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six over seven innings to earn the win over the Rangers on Wednesday.

Impact Burrows threw 64 of 91 pitches for strikes as he matched his longest outing of the season. It's been an inconsistent May for the right-hander, who has allowed 16 runs across 31.2 innings over his five starts this month. He also has a 21:9 K:BB with two hit batsmen in that span. For the season, Burrows is at a 5.40 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 54:21 K:BB through 63.1 innings in his first year with the Astros. His next start is projected to be at home against his former team, the Pirates.

Hit hard in Wednesday's loss Burrows (2-6) took the loss Wednesday as the Astros fell 4-1 to the Twins, giving up four runs on six hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out two.

Impact The right-hander didn't get much support from the Houston offense, but Burrows also got hit hard as half the hits off him went for extra bases, including homers by Victor Caratini and Ryan Kreidler. It's the second straight start in which he's served up multiple long balls, and the fifth time in 10 outings on the season. Burrows will carry a 5.75 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 48:20 K:BB through 56.1 innings into his next start, which lines up to come up next week during a road series against the Rangers.

Can't find groove in fifth loss Burrows (2-5) took the loss Thursday against the Mariners, allowing seven runs on eight hits and three walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out four.

Impact Burrows was never quite able to settle in Thursday, getting ambushed for three runs in the opening frame before giving up two more in both the fourth and sixth innings. The 26-year-old right-hander served up a pair of home runs for the fourth time already this year, taking a big step back after yielding just five runs in his prior three starts (18 innings) to Thursday. Burrows will bring an underwhelming 5.72 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 46:17 K:BB over 50.1 frames into his next scheduled outing versus Minnesota.

Dazzles in second win Burrows (2-4) picked up the win in Friday's 10-0 rout of the Reds, allowing three hits and a walk over seven scoreless innings. He struck out six.

Impact In the right-hander's best performance of the season, Burrows survived a bases-loaded, one-out situation in the fourth inning unscathed, eventually leaving the mound after 98 pitches (62 strikes). Burrows has delivered back-to-back quality starts, his first two of the year, as he begins to shake off a rough start to his first campaign with Houston. He'll take a 5.04 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 42:14 K:BB through 44.2 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next week against the Mariners.
