Wednesday's Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers
By Covers.com
Streaking
Johnny Cueto, Cincinnati Reds (4-0, 1.31 ERA)
Cueto always had a ton of movement, but now he has it under control. He fired a complete game in his last outing, allowing one run and seven hits while walking none. That run was the only score he has allowed in his last 16 innings on the mound and he has given just one free pass to first base over that span.
Brandon Morrow, Toronto Blue Jays (3-1, 2.38 ERA)
Morrow was even more impressive than Cueto in his last start, throwing a complete-game shutout while striking out eight Angels. It was the second complete game of his career. Morrow has allowed just one earned run over his last three starts, yielding only one walk. His early success has been attributed to mixing in more curveballs and changeups this year.
Slumping
Ervin Santana, Los Angeles Angels (0-6, 5.59 ERA)
Santana became the first Angels pitcher to lose six straight starts to begin the season and continues to search for answers. "I don't know how to explain it," Santana told reporters after dropping a 4-0 decision to the Jays last week. "I don't care about my record right now, I just care about pitching well. That's my goal right now. If I don't win it doesn't matter. I want to pitch at least seven innings every time." He went eight innings in that start, but L.A. has been shut out in each of his last five trips to the hill.
Josh Johnson, Miami Marlins (0-3, 6.61 ERA)
The Marlins spotted Johnson a five-run lead in the first inning of his last start and he promptly gave up six in the third inning before hitting the showers. He’s allowed 11 runs and five walks in his last two appearances and can’t seem to keep the ball out of the middle of the strike zone.
