Strikes out nine in quality start Strider allowed a run on three hits and two walks while striking out nine over six innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Saturday.
Impact Since the start of July, Strider has allowed one run or fewer in seven of his nine outings. He's allowed 15 runs across 47 innings in that stretch as he continues to impress in his rookie year. His lone mistake Saturday was a solo home run to Jeremy Pena in the fifth inning. Strider owns a 2.95 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 151:37 K:BB through 100.2 innings across 26 appearances (15 starts). He's lined up for a road start in St. Louis next week.

Collects seventh win Strider (7-4) picked up the win in Monday's 13-1 rout of the Mets, allowing one run on three hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out four.
Impact The rookie failed to get out of the third inning in his last start, also against the Mets, but Strider was sharper this time around and benefitted from an offensive eruption by Atlanta. He's showing some signs of fatigue in his first full season in the majors, lasting longer than five innings only twice in his last six starts, but Strider still sports a 4.03 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 40:10 K:BB through 29 innings over that stretch. Given his dominance, expect Atlanta to continue finding ways to give him some extra rest down the stretch with an eye toward having him available for the playoffs, but a full shutdown seems unlikely -- the 23-year-old tossed 96.1 innings across all levels last season and only sits at 94.2 innings so far in 2022, so there should still be plenty of gas left in his tank.

Not great versus Mets Strider (6-4) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over 2.2 innings, taking the loss Sunday versus the Mets.
Impact It was announced Strider won't face an innings limit this season, his first as a big-league starter. What could see him lose his spot in the rotation is poor performance, as he's had a couple of poor outings in going 2-2 across his last four starts. In that span, he's allowed 11 runs across 19.1 frames, though he's also posted a 28:6 K:BB. After Sunday's dud, he owns a 3.11 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 138:34 K:BB through 89.2 innings in 24 appearances (13 starts). The 23-year-old right-hander will look to bounce back next weekend in a projected road start in Miami.
