Not a bad cleanup hitter eh?
Here's the matchup... Buchholz..... eek. Hope he can work through the problems he's been having. But if not, how long are they going to continue
having this guy in the rotation?
Red Sox: Buchholz hasn't pitched since Aug. 10 against Chicago. His regularly-scheduled start was originally pushed back three days due
to Paul Byrd's arrival in Boston, then it was pushed back to Wednesday due to a rainout on Friday. Even so, there's only one stretch that likely
matters to Buchholz more -- the young right-hander hasn't won since May 2, against Tampa Bay. His lone start against Toronto resulted in his first loss
of the season. On April 5, Buchholz went five innings and allowed four runs (three earned) in a 10-2 loss.
Orioles: It's tough to predict how Waters will fare when he takes the mound. His first three Major League starts have been so different. The southpaw held the league-best Angels to one hit in eight shutout innings in his winning debut. Five days later, Texas scored four times in the first, but he still managed to get through four innings. In his most recent start, Waters shut out the Tigers through four, but couldn't make it out of the fifth.
