In his third start with the Sox, Shields has given up 4 runs without recording a single out.
At least he's been consistent. |

Lower K/9 rate, higher BB/9 rate, decrease of over 2 mph on his fastball since 2014. All of those innings are probably finally catching up to him; or he is mechanically out-of-whack like he was for the first month or two of 2014 with the Royals (to a much more severe extent).
His K/9 rate was 9.61 last year and was 7.26 before tonight's game, which is okay, and even in the middle of what he averaged when he was on the Royals ('13: 7.71, '14: 7.14). However, he isn't benefiting from Kauffman Stadium or the Royals defense any longer. Could potentially also be more evidence to his higher BABIP and sky-rocketed HR/FB rate. Plus he's giving up more hard-contact than he has since the year 2010 (by far his worst year as a starter..well, before this year). Last edited by C3HIEF3S; 06-18-2016 at 05:27 PM.. |

Poor Shields - he can't even get a break with a hard hit ball right at someone.

Finished with 8 runs allowed in 1.2 IP tonight. Just brutal. His last four starts he's pitched 11.1 IP and allowed 31 ER.
It's one thing to decline, he's fallen completely off the face of the earth. That's about as bad a 4 start stretch as you'll ever see. |

Good thing the Royals were smart enough not to get him back that some national folks were thinking they should.
The signs were there in last year and early on this year. His FIP was a near full run more than 2014.
