Wacha is starting to slip and he's only at 120 innings. His K% is at 16 percent in August, down from 29 percent in July and his swinging strikes is down to 7 percent from 12 percent.

On the season, his K% is 22.8%. Before yesterday, his August K% was 22.7%. I get the concern and I think they have to watch him like a hawk, but at this point, those numbers you're citing are over 3 starts, one of which happened to be terrible. It's an awfully small sample to draw any firm conclusions.Farewell Friends wrote:Wacha is starting to slip and he's only at 120 innings.

Any other pitcher and I wouldn't pay attention, but because it's Wacha, any sign of slippage warrants some kind of concern. Hopefully it's just a blip because they need him.
