Wild in win Kuhl (3-5) allowed an unearned run on two hits and five walks with three strikeouts in five innings, earning the win over the Mets on Friday.

Impact Kuhl hadn't allowed five or more walks since April 13 when he issued seven free passes. Despite the lack of control, the right-hander limited the opposition to one run or fewer for the fourth time in his last five starts. He's posted a 4.31 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 45:33 K:BB across 56.1 innings this season. Kuhl's next start is expected to be in San Francisco next week if Pittsburgh deploys a six-man rotation out of the All-Star break.

Pitches well in no-decision Kuhl allowed a run on four hits and zero walks across six innings during Tuesday's win over Atlanta. He struck out seven and didn't factor in the decision.

Impact It's the third time in his past four starts the right-hander has given up exactly one run across six innings, as a solo homer from Orlando Arcia was the only blemish Tuesday. Kuhl has a 4.73 ERA for the season, but he's been much better in his last four outings with a 2.42 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 19:7 K:BB in 22.1 frames.

Cleared to start Tuesday Kuhl (finger) is slated to start Tuesday's game against Atlanta, Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kuhl won't miss a turn through the rotation after he battled a blister on his throwing hand during his most recent start June 30 in Colorado. Since being reinstated from the injured list May 31, Kuhl has gone 2-4 with a 4.55 ERA and 1.28 WHIP across six starts.

Chronic issue resurfaces Kuhl pitched through a blister issue in Wednesday's loss to Colorado, DK Pittsburgh Sports reports.

Impact He sailed through three scoreless innings before battling a blister. "It started bothering me in the fourth, and then in the fifth, it broke off," Kuhl said. "So I just have like a raw chunk of skin." The timing is poor as Kuhl had won his last two starts, allowing two earned runs in 12 innings. In 2020, he attempted to pitch through a blister injury, only to give up nine earned runs in 2.1 innings against the Royals. Fantasy managers will understandably want to use caution with the righty until he's past his most recent blister issue.

Takes loss in Colorado Kuhl (2-5) was handed the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks across 4.1 innings. He struck out six.

Impact Kuhl was handed a 2-0 first-inning lead, but the right-hander stumbled in the fourth and fifth innings after beginning the game with three scoreless frames. C.J. Cron wound up being the difference maker as he got to Kuhl for a solo homer in the fourth before adding a sacrifice fly an inning later. Kuhl only threw 82 pitches but wound up exiting after recording just one out in a hectic fifth inning. Kuhl concludes June having allowed 12 earned runs on 20 hits and 12 walks across 25.2 innings. He lines up to make his next start against Atlanta early next week.

Quality start, win Kuhl (2-4) won Thursday's 8-2 game against St. Louis, allowing one run on three hits and three walks with two strikeouts in six innings.

Impact For the second straight start, Kuhl went six innings and allowed only one run. His lone run permitted came in the second, but St. Louis never heavily threatened the 28-year-old righty. His ERA has dropped nearly 1.5 runs from 6.52 to 5.05 over the two outings and he'll look to build on the recent success next week in Colorado.

Finally gets into win column Kuhl (1-4) picked up the win in Friday's 11-10 victory over Cleveland, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out four.

Impact The Pirates' bullpen made the game a lot more interesting than it seemed when the team took an 11-1 lead into the seventh inning, but Kuhl did get rewarded for his efforts in the end. It was the right-hander's second quality start of the season in eight tries, and he'll carry a 5.66 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 27:22 K:BB through 35 innings into his next outing.
