He was throwing mostly 94-96, but still getting clobbered. He had given up 11 what are deemed hard hit balls in the middle of the 5th inning.

If he stays healthy and a really good but not quite Cy Young worthy pitcher I wonder if they keep him out of the HOF because he never won one. 2018 was probably his best chance, but he got injured.

April 18, 20196 yr Quote "I just flat-out stink right now," Sale told reporters postgame. "I don't know what it is. When you're going good, it's good. When you're going bad, it's pretty bad." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2831714-chris-sale-i-just-flat-out-stink-after-0-4-start-for-red-sox
May 9, 20196 yr https://boston.cbslocal.com/2019/05/08/chris-sale-throws-immaculate-inning-9-pitches-all-strikes-vs-orioles/ Seems to have gotten his velocity back.

His velocity is still down but his issues were more than just velocity. Something else was off and whatever it was it is no longer an issue. White Sox fans should know Sale doesn't need to be throwing 95mph+ to get outs.
