Graveman allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks with three strikeouts over 4.1 innings in a no-decision Tuesday against Seattle.
Graveman was bailed out of a two-on, one-out situation in the fifth inning by his bullpen, or else this start could have been even worse. Hitters are routinely punishing his mistakes this year, as he has allowed a whopping 56 hits in 47 innings this year. The result has been a brutal 5.36 ERA and 1.60 WHIP. Graveman has just 113 strikeouts in 162.2 innings dating back to last season, and he is just giving up too much contact to be successful right now.
