Pitches well but takes loss Turnbull (1-1) allowed three earned runs on five hits across six innings and took the loss Monday against the Royals. He didn't walk a batter and struck out five.
Impact A two-run home run by Carlos Santana in the third inning accounted for most of the Kansas City offense against Turnbull, who was otherwise solid as he picked up his first quality start of the season but also his first loss as the Tigers only mustered two runs. Through two appearances, the righty has a 3.27 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 11 strikeouts across 11 innings. He'll look to keep pitching well in a tricky matchup Saturday against the Yankees on the road.

Impact Making his 2021 debut after starting the year on the COVID-19 injured list, Turnbull hit the ground running, and he likely could have gone longer if he wasn't making his first start after a long layoff, as he only logged 62 pitches. The Tigers are looking for consistent starters around Matthew Boyd, and Turnbull could be one of them after posting a solid 3.97 ERA across 11 starts last season. He lines up to face the Royals on Monday in his next scheduled start.

Impact Turnbull gets a favorable draw in his 2021 debut, taking on an 8-9 Pirates squad lacking one of its top hitters in Ke'Bryan Hayes (wrist). Though manager A.J. Hinch previously suggested that Turnbull would be piggybacked Wednesday, that plan may no longer be in the cards after Tarik Skubal worked three innings behind Michael Fulmer in the opening game of the twin bill. After being delayed due to his recovery from COVID-19, Turnbull isn't yet fully built up to the 75-to-85-pitch range, so it would be surprising if he worked much more than four or five innings Wednesday.
