  • What going on with Wainright?

    Wainright he has been struggling: 4.35 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over the last 31 days with a 4.85 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over the last week. Those numbers are reflected by his BPIs so it is not a matter of luck. Wonder if there is an unannounced injury he is dealing with. Any insight?

      He had an arm issue about a month ago. Could be a lingering problem.

            So you think one of the best pitchers of the last few years just all of a sudden started to suck? For no reason?

                Oh, we know the reason for his fall: after netting Kate Upton he won, game over.
