Pagan was credited with his fifth hold in Sunday's 10-2 win over the Athletics, allowing an earned run on two hits over an inning-plus. He also recorded a strikeout.
Pagan has been a bit more hittable as of late, as he's now allowed an earned run in three straight games and five out of the last six overall. He continues to see plenty of work, however, as manager Scott Servais appears to value his ability to eat up multiple innings. Pagan also offers solid strikeout upside, as evidenced by his 43:7 K:BB over 41 frames.
