  • A's News Clips, Friday, June 25, 2010 Oakland A's Reliever Michael
    A’s News Clips, Friday, June 25, 2010 Oakland A's reliever Michael Wuertz's struggles are puzzlement By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune Observe Michael Wuertz in the A's clubhouse, and there's little that suggests how rough this season has been on him. The soft-spoken reliever generally keeps to himself at his locker, much as he did last season when he was mowing down American League hitters with regularity. He isn't fooling the opposition nearly as much in 2010, and without much prodding, Wuertz opens up about his frustration. "I've never struggled like this before," he said before Wednesday's A's loss against the Cincinnati Reds. "It's been hard mentally, but it's one of those things you've got to forget about." It's easy to point to the A's hitting woes for why they have lost ground rapidly in the American League West. Long-term injuries to starting pitchers Brett Anderson and Justin Duchscherer haven't helped. But the A's normally trusty bullpen also has shown vulnerability, posting a 2-6 record with a 4.97 ERA in June. Wuertz's struggles stand out if only because he was so dominant last year, his first season with Oakland. As the setup man for closer Andrew Bailey, Wuertz led AL relievers with 102 strikeouts. He averaged 11.67 strikeouts per nine innings, the second-highest rate by a reliever in Oakland history, and held opponents to a .188 batting average. This season has told a different story. After missing the first month with right shoulder tendinitis, Wuertz has posted a 7.11 ERA in 17 games heading into tonight's series opener against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

But it might help him land a contract this winter. Tomko reached the milestone in dominating fashion Monday night, throwing a five-hitter for his first complete game since 2005 and leading the A's to a 9-0 series-opening victory over the Texas Rangers at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. "It's a good way to do it, if you're going to do it," said Tomko, who improved to 5-3 with a 3.77 ERA this season, including 4-1, 2.95 in six starts with the A's. "I definitely knew about it, but I never thought I'd get to do it this year because I was coming out of the bullpen in New York. But I got some quick victories here and it became a reality." While the 100-win plateau isn't a Hall of Fame marker, it's certainly a nice accomplishment for the 13-year veteran. Tomko said he would keep the game ball and likely would frame his cleats and jersey, too. Relying on his curveball more than usual, Tomko dominated from the start. The right-hander retired the first five batters and allowed only one Rangers runner to get into scoring position all game. That happened in the second inning with two outs, when Texas slugger Nelson Cruz doubled to left-center. Tomko responded by striking out Ivan Rodriguez.
