Stroman (8-5) allowed three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings to take the loss Sunday at the Royals.
Stroman had no offensive support, and he left the contest with a 3-0 deficit, which led to his fifth loss of 2016. This was the first loss he suffered since June 26, and he now has a 4.76 ERA to go along with a 1.31 WHIP. Both his ERA and WHIP are significantly higher than they were in either of his first two seasons in the majors. He'll make his next start Sunday against the Astros.
