A couple of left-handers square off in the series finale between the Blue Jays and Angels today as Toronto tries to salvage something (anything) from this four-game set. Mark Buehrle looks to continue his hot start against the reliable C.J. Wilson. The Californian has a 3.21 ERA this season with pretty fair peripherals so it's safe to say that Wilson is on track for another sub 4.00 ERA season (which would be his fifth in a row).
Wilson throws a ton of different pitches including a fastball, sinker, cutter, changeup, slider, and curveball. His curve is his most used off-speed pitch, although his slider is more successful with a whiffs/swing of 50% this season. With all these pitches, Wilson can basically hit any part of the plate with any type of movement, which makes things a wee bit unpredictable:
My internet is being silly so this might need to be cut short unfortunately.
