Chris Sale in Crisis: Rookie Andrew Abbott's Emergence Sparks Pitching Revolution

When I ranked Buehler as SP51 in my pre-season starting pitcher rankings, part of my reasoning was that “Boston hates to throw four-seam fastballs, which is great because that pitch has become a mediocre one for Buehler. The Red Sox could easily lean into his cutter and sinker more as early fastballs and then dial up his sweeper usage, and we could be looking at another strong season for Buehler.”
In his last two starts, we started to see that attack plan come into focus a little, but in particular in his last start against the White Sox.
