JP Sears surrendered three runs in five innings Sunday in a loss to the Guardians.
Still one of his better showings of late. Sears struck out five and gave up only five hard-hit balls today. Unfortunately, four of those became hits, including a pair that followed a walk in the second, leading to a two-run inning. In his last eight starts, Sears is 1-5 with 35 earned runs allowed in 36 innings. If not for some injuries, he might have lost his spot already. As is, he’s set to face the Yankees next weekend.
