Iwakuma was knocked around for seven runs on six hits with two walks and four strikeouts over 3.1 innings Monday in a loss to the Angels. The woes continue for Iwakuma, who has coughed up 14 runs in 13 September innings (9.69 ERA) over three starts. The seven runs allowed are the most in his career. Iwakuma has admitted to feeling out of sync, so it might be wise to sit him until he gets straightened out. He will try to get it going Saturday in Houston.
