He's been more unlucky than bad lately. His last start he was cruising thru 5 (w run allowed)- then a well hit double, a HBP and a broken bat single loaded the bases with two out. Next batter hits a sinking liner to CF which Willie Tavarez (who got a late break on it) just missed catching. Ball goes all the way to the wall. A couple of inches from getting out of the inning. Gets pulled and the new pitcher gives up a hit and two more runs get charged to Cueto. So to be fair he pitched better than the final line indicates.

That being said his control has been spotty of late and he isn't striking a lot of guys out- I agree he is a touggh start - but I think he is not an automatic sit.
