Yields three homers in loss
Perkins (2-7) allowed six runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out nine over 5.1 innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Tigers.
Analyse
Perkins gave up five of those runs on homers, making this the third time in five outings he's yielded multiple long balls. In that span, he's been on the hook for 21 runs over 22.2 innings, though he also has a 27:11 K:BB in that span. On the year, Perkins is sporting an ugly 6.72 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 89:28 K:BB over 73.2 innings across 27 games (nine starts), including a 7.38 ERA over 42.2 innings when he starts. Despite the ongoing struggles, he's penciled in to make his next start in Boston.

Handed sixth loss
Perkins (2-6) took the loss Monday, allowing two runs on a hit and three walks over 5.2 innings against the Red Sox. He struck out four.
Analyse
The right-hander didn't allow a run while on the mound, but after departing with two runners aboard and two outs in the sixth inning, Jose Suarez surrendered a grand slam to Ceddanne Rafaela that saddled Perkins with the loss. Monday's performance was encouraging, though it's been a challenging season for the 26-year-old, who opened the campaign in a relief role before shifting into the starting rotation in June. He owns a 6.45 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 80:27 K:BB across 68.1 innings over 26 appearances (eight starts). Perkins is next lined up to pitch Saturday against the Tigers.
