Cool, forgot about McCutchen. Kid is a stud. And Verlander's stats are pretty much identical to what they were last year, but he just doesn't have the wins to show for it. Here's a stat for you:
Heading into tonight's start, Verlander will have 1 more start than Sale, but has already pitched 20 innings more than him. That boggles my mind. Quite the work horse.
Big Z's been getting lit up of late. Don't hate Hanley, just think there's been better performances. We'd still be in this thing if Bonafacio hadn't sprained his thumb.
They only started stretching out Sale in past 5 or 6 starts I think. Plus he had that week or so span where he was the closer, no he's back to being a starter. That messed him up a bit.
Still, this doesn't mean Verlander isn't the best pitcher going today. He is. I'm just giving Sale the nod because he's been amazing so far. Pretty much unhittable. I mean Verlander is winning the actual Cy Young, so I'll give Sale the midway mark nod.

He's only essentially missed 1 start and they've pitched him and Peavy on 6 days rest the last two (which I'm not sure that does anything to limit his innings, honestly).
I'd be pleased if Sale won as a homer. Just found it astonishing that Verlander goes out there 7-9 innings nearly every damn game.
CP isn't the only one gotten to. Rangers got swept by the Chisox. Two of them were really close games. At least I kinda like the White Sox so it wasn't the worst thing the world; plus they're a good team. Angels lost two games as well. No clue what happened with them tonight.
The two images that made CP gotten to tonight. :kobe3
