May: 14 App, 11.1 IP, 7 ER. One outting of 3 runs and no one retired. Streak of 11 IP, 4 ER.
June: 9 App, 7.2 IP, 2 ER. Allowed one run in his first appearance in the month then went 7 appearances before allowing the 2nd run of the month.
July: 12 App, 9.2 IP, 8 ER. 1 appearance with 4 runs allowed. Streaks of 5 IP, 2 ER and 4 IP, 2 ER
August: 8 App, 8 IP, 8 ER. Streak of 7 IP, 1 ER.
After a VERY good June, his last 2 months have been pretty bad overall. Even so, his bad outtings tend to be surrounded by many appearances with few runs allowed. He's had 5 bad appearances in which his line is 1.2 IP, 17 ER. Now that's TERRIBLE in anyone's book. I'm simply pointing out that he's has fairly good streaks in which he allows few runs.
