Buehler, who signed a one-year deal worth $21.05 million with the Red Sox in December, also gave a blunt assessment of how his stuff has been this season, saying that his pitches have “sucked” throughout the year. “It’s hard to say these two are the winners when they all kind of sucked all year,” he said.
