With all the haranguing over Price, JBJ, Nunez etc, I feel like our friend Rick Porcello deserves a thread of his own. After his mediocre season last year, he has really turned it around and is having himself a really solid year . 3.57 ERA through 111 innings, with an OPS of 1.000 to boot. I was worried about which Rick we were gonna see this season but, after winning a Cy Young in his 2nd year with us, and having yet another solid year, I feel as if he has earned his "True Red Sox" status and deserves his fair share of love. Without him we would not be where we are at this point of the year, and his contract, while maybe not a bargain, is looking to be one of the more solid moves Cherington made during his tenure as our GM
