Someone please make this stop. Inconsistency, thy name is Brian Moehler. You never know what you're going to get. His ERA is an ungodly (for a couple of reasons) 6.66, but Moehler is 3-4, and since returning from injury, he is 3-2 with an ERA just north of 5.00.
Last three starts:

I still feel bad for giving him the Goat in a game that (a) was considered a quality start, (b) he won. So let's all hope this one is a little easier to call.

When there aren't any outs, batters are reaching base at a .407/.424/.667 clip against Moehler. You know who would be available to start today? Bud Norris. Just saying.
Scott Baker
