I didn't see the game today, but one thing I noticed in Buehrle's previous two starts (Cubs, Boston) is that both teams were hacking away first pitch because they knew he was coming right in there with a strike.
I'm not sure what the deal is with Buehrle, but I'm really starting to get concerned that the word is out on how to get to him and do it quickly. He definitely needs to look at making a few adjustments and maybe not be so predictable on the first pitch.
Has anyone else noticed anything in his past few starts besides the fact that he's just gotten totally owned as of late.
This is the toughest stretch I can ever remember for him.
I thinks his confidence his struck.
