While it was a great play, it wasn't that great. Most MLB SS should be able to make that play.

 

So E-Jax has his best start, do we trade while he comes off his best start?

 

 

Nope, KW is all-in, no choice but to roll the dice. His quote will be "this is exactly why we acquired Edwin Jackson, for key 2nd half games against our divisional rivals, blah, blah, blah..."

 

We still don't know how Peavy's going to rebound in the 2nd half. If Peavy went out and threw 3 shutouts featuring 93-96 MPH fastballs....three games in a row...then you can argue that at that point you leverage Jackson for whatever you can get.

 

His ERA is now exactly at 4.00 and will fall below it if he can get through the 9th.

Nope. The Tigers are just awful and impatient today.

 

Quiet, I was waiting until the end of the game and for Sox to win to say how bad their approach has been with runners on.

had to join the game late... is Jackson Fastball velocity higher than usual today?

 

Gameday has his fastball at 99 on that last double play. Impressive.

Valverde has thrown all of 4 pitches in 5 minutes.

 

Who's slower, him or Betancourt? Jesus of Nazareth.

 

 

Great, when we need Rios to strike out, he fouls off the ball and prevents Lillibridge from getting to 2nd on the easy steal.

At the risk of a re-jinx - Is Q! finally out of his dormant state and ready to carry us again for a few weeks? T'would be real nice.

 

If nothing else, the value of our two most-discussed trading chips has not been hurt these last couple of days.
