Impact Rodriguez slugged a solo shot in the first inning and added a two-run single in the fifth for his fourth multi-hit effort in his last five games. He'd gone 12 contests without a homer entering Friday. The outfielder appears to be turning things around after struggling through the first quarter of the campaign. He's slashing .233/.302/.416 with eight homers, 26 RBI, 33 runs scored and eight stolen bases through 49 games.

George Kirby - Hit hard by Pirates Kirby (5-4) took the loss Friday versus the Pirates, allowing seven runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out four over 4.2 innings.
Impact Kirby came into this start having allowed just three homers in his first nine outings. The Pirates then launched four long balls off of him, including Andrew McCutchen's blast on the second pitch of the game. This was Kirby's worst start of the season, and the second time he's given up four homers in a game in his 35 career games. The right-hander's ERA ballooned to 3.43 with a 1.10 WHIP and 51:6 K:BB across 63 innings. He hasn't had many disasters like this, though he is lined up for a challenging home start versus the Yankees next week as he looks to bounce back.

The first baseman has hit five homers this year, including three over his last two games. For the season, he's slashing .266/.344/.415 with 23 RBI, 30 runs scored and a stolen base through 49 contests.

He's kept runs off the board in four of his last five outings, lowering his ERA to 3.18 with a 0.88 WHIP and 30:5 K:BB over 22.2 innings overall.

MAY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Logan Gilbert - Efficient in win Gilbert (3-2) allowed two runs on three hits and struck out six over eight innings to earn the win Thursday over the Athletics.
Impact Gilbert allowed two of the first four batters he faced to record a hit, with Seth Brown taking him deep for a two-run home run. After that Gilbert allowed just one more single while throwing just 77 pitches (59 strikes) in an efficient start. The right-hander has six quality starts among his 10 outings this season, and this was the second time he issued no walks. For the season, he's at a 3.60 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 69;10 K:BB through 60 innings. Gilbert will likely be tested a bit more in a home start versus the Yankees next week.
