Mark Buehrle 1-1 with a 4.36 ERA

John Danks 2-3 with a 2.91 ERA

Gavin Floyd 3-0 with a 0.99 ERA

Jose Contreras 3-2 with a 2.17 ERA

Clayton Richard 1-0 with a 5.48 ERA

 

These guys have been dealing. 14 of the last 25 starts (56%) have been quality starts. (6IP/3ER)

Taking Clayton out of the mix, 14 of the last 20 starts (70%) have been quality starts.

I really don't think Gavin is getting the credit that is due from turning this season around. He's looked as good as last year recently, maybe better. After the shaky start he had I think we were all ready to jump off the Floyd bandwagon but he has really stepped it up and pitched incredibly.

That is one hell of a line from Gavin.

 

I cant imagine that there have been many pitchers who have performed better than Gavin over his last 8 starts. His maturation these past 3 years has been amazing. I'm finally over Jon-Jon I'm a Gay(happy)-4-Gavin now!

Mark is now 2-1 with a 3.24 ERA in his last 5.

 

Also, here is an interesting note about a change he made to his sinker grip that he did last night:

 

"I changed my sinker grip in the bullpen because the last two or three games, it’s been cutting instead of sinking. So I moved my fingers closer together and I think it was probably one of the best sinkers I’ve had in a while.”
