Cherry-picked recent trends with the starting pitching...
- Porcello: Last 6 games - 37.1 ip, 5.06 era, 1.69 whip, 8.0 k/9. 6.0+ innings each start.
- Sale: Last 6 games - 38.1 ip, 4.70 era, 1.15 whip, 13.1 k/9.
- Price: Only 2 games but - 12.0 ip, 3.00 era, 0.67 whip, 8.3 k/9.
- Pomeranz: Last 5 games - 25.0 ip, 2.52 era, 1.32 whip, 12.6 k/9.
So...some good news and some bad news. Even Pomeranz' good news, though, comes with a caveat: He can barely get through 5 on pretty high pitch counts. But, he's only had 2 starts where he's given up more than 2 runs, so that's encouraging.
