CHICAGO -- Mark Buehrle makes his 31st and final start of the 2011 season on Tuesday night at U.S. Cellular Field, needing 1 2/3 innings to reach at least 200 innings pitched, at least 30 starts made and double-digit wins for the 11th straight season.
It's the longest such active streak in the Majors. But if that Buehrle streak continues on in 2012 and beyond, it might not be with the White Sox. Buehrle will be experiencing free agency for the first time, as his four-year, $56-million deal comes to a close, and isn't sure what to expect.
Yeah I know the Red Sox still have a shot to get into the playoffs... The Epic choke that happens once a generation isnt complete yet I know. But like a wise man once said "If your not first, your last." So I want to be the first to say Mark Buerhle in Boston needs to happen. The guys a class act, knows how to win, throws perfect games every other day, has the best defensive play Ive ever seen a pitcher make... Oh yeah and his wife aint to shabby either. Make it happen Theo.
