Bryan Shaw is having a strange season. He allowed at least one base runner in each of his first five appearances, four of which ended with him having recorded only one out. His ERA at that point was 7.71, and there were those here at LGT saying that clearly his workload the last couple years had gotten to him. Mostly that talk was ignored, because why try to draw serious conclusions from a week and a half'?
Sure enough, Shaw settled in, and over his next 42 appearances he posted a 1.46 ERA.
Now Shaw has allowed 3 hits in each of his last two appearances, including the 10th inning of last night's barnburner.
