Honestly, I don't know where to find the numbers on this. How many times did Farrell send Sale back-out for another inning this season, when he had already past the 100 pitch plateau?
I watched probably 75% of Sale's starts, and it seemed like up until late-August/September when he started struggling. It was literally EVERY start, at least it felt like. April, May, June, July and early-August. This entire time when Sale was rolling, he would finish the 7th or something at 102-105 pitches and Farrell would trot him back out there for another.
What did you think was going to happen?
Pomeranz didn't get the run that Sale did, but he got quite a bit and has appeared to wear down a bit too over his past few starts.
That's just a complete lack of foresight, and a focus only on the instant gratification of beating the freakin Rays in May.
