Buehrle made it look easy against the Royals in Thursday's 4-1 win over Kansas City. He cruised with eight shutout innings before allowing a run with one out in the ninth in a bid for a complete game. For the night, he finished with just six hits, no walks and one run permitted in 8.1 innings.
Recommendation: Okay, it's not just Buehrle. It's that easy against the Royals right now. But Buehrle still improved to 8-2 with a 3.09 ERA and a 1.12 WHIP.
