Not to defend Miller -- who has been awful for the most part (but had two strong starts right before these last two September starts) -- but Wake has also been terrible, aside from his nine brilliant September innings. His OPS against was .839 in August and .920 in July, and his ERA has been over 5 in every month but May.
The OPS against Lackey, for the season, is .852. This, of course, means that three of our starters are currently near-certain losers every time they take the mound. Let's go Kyle Weiland! And I'm pretty sure Aceves could outpitch any of the three at this point ...
