Gas can would be a good way to describe Soria in May, when he blew four saves and had an ERA approaching 9. He went 21-23 in save opportunities the rest of the year, with a 2.58 ERA and 9.6 K/9.

Basically, Soria had a shitty month early, dumped the cutter he had picked up over the offseason because it was not effective, and pitched the rest of the season at his career averages.

The cutter experiment failed horrendously, but at least he dumped it early.
