Lance McCullers Jr. Struggles Persist Ahead of Mariners Start

Houston Astros right-hander Lance McCullers Jr. (2-3, 7.41 ERA) is facing increased scrutiny as he prepares for his start against the Seattle Mariners. He has struggled significantly of late, allowing three or more runs in six consecutive starts. With 898 career strikeouts, McCullers will look to regain form on the mound tonight, but analysis suggests his difficulties may persist.
