Nolasco (4-10) allowed three runs on eight hits and three walks with three strikeouts over 5.1 innings in a loss Monday to the Mariners.
Nolasco has been predictably mediocre since he was dealt to the Angels. Despite a solid 13:4 K:BB, Nolasco has now allowed a 5.19 EERA and 1.38 WHIP over 17.1 innings. He was tagged for a home run by Nelson Cruz, giving Nolasco four homers allowed in just three starts. Too many hits and too many homers -- these are the same problems he had in Minnesota and has had for much of his career, and there's little reason to expect that he'll turn it around now.
