The White Sox starter’s ERA ballooned to 7.88 after the Red Sox game, the highest it’s ever been in his career at this point in the season.
What’s most frustrating for Keuchel is that he feels like himself. There’s nothing bothering him that would be an indicator for why he’s struggling. But he did have an idea for why things fell apart on Thursday.
“I've been so kind of in love with the two-seam,” Keuchel said. “I had gotten some pretty good weak contact and some lockups inside to the righties with the two-seam throughout the course of the last four starts. But I do need to throw some more sliders. Changeup wasn't very good tonight and that's kind of been a good pitch for me.
“One thing or another, it's going to get there. As much as it hurts tonight and last start, it'll get there. We'll be talking differently soon.” If we’re not talking differently with Keuchel soon, we may not be talking with him at all as a White Sox starter. Lance Lynn is beginning a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte, and if he doesn't suffer any setbacks, is expected to return to the rotation in a few weeks. In addition, newcomer Johnny Cueto put together back-to-back 6 IP, 0 ER performances in his two starts. If Keuchel doesn’t turn things around, he could be the odd man out when Lynn returns.
