Felipe Paulino turned in one of his worst starts of the season on Monday, allowing five runs on eight hits and five walks in 5 1/3 innings of Kansas City's loss to the Yankees. He struck out four in falling to 1-9 on the season. Now the owner of a 3.76 ERA and 76/27 K/BB ratio through his first 83 2/3 innings in a Royals uniform, Paulino has another tough matchup lined up for Saturday, where he'll get the Red Sox at home.
