Brady Singer: Everything you need to know

Singer (2-1) earned the win over Detroit on Saturday, allowing two runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out three batters over 5.1 innings. Singer's outing didn't start out well, as he gave up a leadoff homer to open the contest. However, he was able to get through 5.1 innings with just one other run on his ledger, which also came via a solo homer. Beyond those two long balls, the other six hits Singer allowed were all singles, and he minimized additional damage by not walking any batters. The right-hander fell short of notching a third straight quality start, but he seems to be turning things around after posting a 7.71 ERA through his first three starts of the campaign.

Singer did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 7-4 extra-inning win over the Twins, allowing three runs on five hits and four walks with two strikeouts over six innings. Singer allowed runs in the first and third innings but battled despite not having his best command, finishing by retiring the final six batters he faced. It was the second consecutive quality start for the 29-year-old, and he's now yielded three earned runs or fewer in four of five outings this season. He'll carry a 5.32 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB across 23.2 innings into a home matchup against the Tigers next weekend.

Singer (1-1) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on six hits over six innings in a 2-1 victory over the Giants. He struck out one without walking a batter. The right-hander needed just 75 pitches (50 strikes) to record his first quality start of the season, with his only real mistake resulting in a Willy Adames solo shot in the fifth inning. Singer has alternated decent outings with shaky ones so far, leaving him with a 5.60 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB through 17.2 innings, but there's some bad luck baked into those ratios as he has a .387 BABIP. He'll look to build on this performance in his next start, which is set to come on the road this weekend in Minnesota.
