Urena (0-3) took the loss Saturday against the Royals after allowing four runs on six hits and five walks across 3.2 innings. He struck out three.
Urena looked impressive in his first start of the season April 19 against the Padres with six-plus innings of two-run ball and eight strikeouts, but he couldn't repeat that outing here. The right-hander failed to consistently find the strike zone Saturday, as he tossed just 44 of his 81 pitches for strikes and was lifted before completing four innings. It remains to be seen if Urena will get another turn in the rotation, but this outing increased his ERA to 4.76 and WHIP to 2.21. If Urena gets another start, he'd be tentatively lined up to face the Mets at home next weekend.
