Bass has been roughed up lately and his ERA is up over 3 now
Kay got roughed up and was optioned
Yamaguchi has his ERA down under 4 after that terrible start but the Yankees destroyed him a few games ago and it ballooned again. Hopefully just a blip.
Borucki, SRF and Perez have nice arms and stuff, especially out of the pen, but they walk too many batters.
It would be really nice to get Pearson and Romano back 100% healthy for some flame throwing high leverage situations. Murphy also looked like he might be an option going forward.
Anyways, hopefully just a product of that terrible series in Yankee stadium where they scored runs at will for 3 days and not something that keeps spiraling out of control going forward.

They got worn out. But they are getting rested this week.
How they pitched last week doesn't matter - the only thing that matters is how they pitch next week.
But yes, it would help immensely if they could get Pearson and/or Romano back.
