Logan Gilbert

The trade deadline has come and gone and the Yankees certainly seized the opportunity to shore up weaker areas of the roster. They got the ball rolling across the league when they acquired Andrew Benintendi from the Royals last Wednesday. Then, on the eve of deadline day, they first added Cubs sidearming reliever Scott Effross before truly setting the headlines ablaze with a blockbuster that netted them starter Frankie Montas and reliever Lou Trivino from the Athletics. All of this without relinquishing one of their top-three prospects... not too shabby.

The New York Yankees were active buyers on Monday in an attempt to bolster the pitching staff of the best team in baseball. Other moves may occur ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, which will precede the second contest of a three-game series against the visiting Seattle Mariners. The Yankees, who...

Gilbert did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's game against the Yankees, allowing six runs on seven hits while striking out two and walking four across 5.1 innings. Gilbert was not sharp in Tuesday's game, throwing 53 of 89 pitches for strikes. It was the second time this season where Gilbert finished a game with more walks than strikeouts. The young righty has now allowed 16 home runs across 128.1 innings after three balls left the park in his matchup with the Yankees, tying him for seventh-most homers allowed among qualified starters. Despite that, Gilbert still has a 3.09 ERA, a 10-4 record and 10 quality starts this year.

The two best teams in the AL West will face off for the second time post-All-Star break with the Houston Astros hosting the Seattle Mariners at 8:10 p.m. EST on Thursday. Houston got the best of the Mariners in their last series, pulling off the sweep, but was promptly swept by the last-place Oakland Athletics earlier this week.

Gilbert did not factor in the decision against Houston on Thursday, pitching six innings and allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters. Gilbert served up a two-run homer to Alex Bregman in the first inning, but he didn't allow the Astros to score again during his subsequent five frames. The right-hander has faced Houston in each of his past two starts and has ended up with almost identical stat lines, allowing two runs on five hits across six innings in each game. He didn't pick up a win in either outing though, and remains without a victory since he beat San Diego on July 5.

Gilbert (10-4) took the loss to the Astros on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out eight and walking one over six innings. Gilbert was efficient Saturday, throwing 63 of 89 pitches for strikes across six frames. The eight strikeouts were a season high for the young righty. Gilbert did not allow a home run in the contest, but the Astros were able to knock in two runs against him, both on doubles. Despite picking up a loss, Gilbert earned a quality start, his ninth of the year. He will take a 2.77 ERA into his next appearance.
