Buehler’s Slump and the All-Star Break | San Diego Padres News

Walker Buehler’s hot streak is cooling fast—his last three starts have seen 20 runs and 9 walks in just 11 innings, a sharp contrast to his dominant June form. The Padres’ ace admits he’s in a slump, and the All-Star break couldn’t come at a better time as he plans to reset his approach. Manager Craig Stammen agrees, noting Buehler’s age and the need for a mental reset, especially as the team fights for a playoff spot. While his trade value has dipped with recent struggles, his playoff pedigree and June dominance still make him a potential asset—if the Padres stay in contention, he’s a proven arm worth considering.
