Brian Moehler
Moehler has allowed 11 ER in his last three starts - 15IP. More disturbing, he's also given up 6HR in those 15IP. Of course the Twins teed off on him for three jacks in his last outing, but still. He's 0-3 at home with a 9.13 ERA, and Bud Norris is knocking...
Last three starts:
| Date-Opp | IP | H/ER | K:BB | GB/FB | Pit/Str |

Moehler just hasn't been striking anybody out, either. 578 of his 894 pitches this season have been for strikes (64.6%), though it's been since May 29 (four starts) that he struck out more than three batters.
