Doesn't Chen have an awful track record in Fenway Park? Maybe with the off-day Buck should have skipped Chen's turn. Total hindsight of course, Bud Norris hasn't exactly been lighting it up.

Bud pitches well vs Toronto. Buck doesn't want Chen facing all those righties in that lineup, he does not match up well with them. Chen has not been great at Fenway but I think he started Patriots Day game last year as well.

I could buy it if this game was an outlier. But it's not. His velocity has been down so far this year. And that's a concern for primarily fastball pitcher. Which is why I wondered if he was hurt. I wouldn't have thought anything of it if it was just this game.

I am not worried about Chen. He has been rock solid consistent his entire time as an Oriole. His velocity this year is about 1 mph off his career average. Not a big deal.
