Walker Buehler shines for Padres after stint with Red Sox

Walker Buehler has had a notable month with the San Diego Padres, posting a 1.71 ERA in five starts this June. The right-hander struggled with the Boston Red Sox last season, finishing with a 5.45 ERA before being released and later signing with the Padres. This season, Buehler has 27 strikeouts over 26 1/3 innings, showing promise reminiscent of his previous All-Star performances with the Los Angeles Dodgers. His recent success comes after a challenging return from Tommy John surgery and a rough 2024 season, raising questions about his long-term trajectory in the league.
