I just don't want to hear the excuse that we destroyed Jackson, Floyd and Danks down the stretch in 2010 and that's the reason for 2011 going bad before the season starts....as we have said in the past after 2005 or even using the World Baseball Classic as an excuse for Javy.
In some ways, I suppose 2009 would fall into the same category, right? We really pushed our pitchers hard down the stretch that August/September, plus the additional playoff starts.
The interesting thing is that Buehrle started off 4/12 in quality starts and then has something like an 11/12 string going, so he's actually gotten stronger as the season has gone on...same with Jackson, Floyd and Danks, Garcia is the only one who has tailed off significantly in the second half.
