Sox win 12-1.

 

Miguel Gonzales 8 innings of 2 hit ball.

 

Matt Davidson 3/4, 4 RBI , triple short of the cycle. And his single was a rocket high off the left field padding.

 

Tim Anderson with 3 hits.

 

Swarzak an inning or perfect relief and still carrying the 0 ERA

 

Leury Garcia 3 hits

 

 

Poop?

I'm thinking Q just did a Space Jam style ability transfer to Holland, Gonzalez and Shields. He takes his powers back after the trade deadline.

In the last 10 games Anderson's strikeout rate is under 16%, nice to see.

Unlike last year where our bullpen was great but had questionable sustainability with no k machines like Albers, I think Swarzak and Kahnle are for real.

 

Edit: I should say last April.

There are a lot of small sample sizes so far, but the Sox pitching to this point has been A+ as a team. Q is the only one who really is pitching below his level, and it is my guess that a lot of that is from off-field distractions more than anything else.

Agreed - he has not been K'ing much. Very good sign especially after the first week of the season.

 

But I don't recall a ton of hard hit balls so far which is evident in his .259 BABIP.I can only think of a few off the top of my head - a couple against Tanaka last week and then one on Salazar on Sunday. But I'd like to see him use the middle of the field a bit more, been pulling his balls lately.
