Cam Schlittler allowed four runs on four hits in three innings in a no-decision against the Cardinals on Monday.

It was Schlittler’s shortest start of the season. In fact, two of the right-hander’s four shortest outings of the season have been in his last four starts. He may be tiring a little bit since he’s on track to easily outpace his career high in innings, but it’s far more likely that he just had an off day. His velocity looked good, but he threw just 61 percent of his pitches for strikes, far below his season average. We’d expect him to bounce back this weekend against the Braves.
