Another short outing Carrasco allowed three earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five across 4.1 innings Tuesday against the Pirates. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Carrasco surrendered one run in the first inning, but then settled in. However, he allowed two of the first three batters he faced to reach base in the fifth frame, both of whom were driven in on a double by Josh Bell. Carrasco has uncharacteristically battled his control of late, surrendering 12 free passes in his last 14.2 innings. He still has a respectable 3.71 ERA with 35 strikeouts across 26.2 innings for the season, but has struggled to work deep into games due to his inability to find the zone. He'll look to work more efficiently in his next start, currently scheduled for Sunday against Detroit.

Struggles with control Carrasco (2-2) allowed three earned runs on four hits and five walks while striking out seven across 4.1 innings to take the loss Wednesday against the Cubs.
Impact Carrasco worked around his control struggles, as he stranded all five batters he walked. However, he surrendered a solo home run to Anthony Rizzo to lead off the third inning. His bullpen also didn't help him, as he exited with two runners on in the fifth inning, both of whom came around to score. Carrasco had worked six innings in each of three starts prior to this effort, and still maintains a 3.22 ERA across 22.1 frames this season. He'll look to get back on track in his next outing, currently projected to come Tuesday at Pittsburgh.

Six scoreless against Reds Carrasco (2-1) allowed one hit and four walks over six scoreless innings in a win over the Reds on Thursday. He struck out eight.
Impact It looked like Carrasco lost a little something as he pushed up close to 100 pitches -- he issued back-to-back two-out walks and uncorked a wild pitch in the sixth inning -- but he was brilliant otherwise. Carrasco now has a 2.50 ERA and 23:6 K:BB in 18 innings this season. A borderline ace serving as the No. 3 starter for Cleveland, Carrasco lines up face the Cubs at home in his next start.

Maeda, Sano power Twins past Indians 3-0
Miguel Sanó hit a pair of homers and Kenta Maeda pitched six scoreless innings in his home debut for Minnesota as the Twins beat the Cleveland Indians 3-0 on SaturdayAUGUST 2, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Goes yard twice in win Sano went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs in Saturday's 3-0 win over Cleveland.
Impact The slugger took Carlos Carrasco deep in the third inning to open the scoring, giving Kenta Maeda and the Minnesota bullpen all the offense they would end up needing, but then Sano did it again in the fifth for good measure. The blasts were his first home runs and RBI on the season, and he still only has three hits through 20 at-bats -- although all three hit have gone for extra bases. Don't be surprised if Sano goes on a homer binge now that he's found his timing at the plate.

Outdueled on Saturday Carrasco (1-1) took the loss Saturday as Cleveland dropped a 3-0 decision to the Twins, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out five.
Impact All three runs scored on solo shots, as Minnesota's 2019 power surge has continued right into 2020. Carrasco still produced his second straight quality start to begin the season, an outstanding display from a pitcher whose career seemed to be in jeopardy after he was diagnosed with leukemia last year. He'll try to stay locked in for his next outing, a home start Thursday against the Reds.
