Looks to me like that would be the 2nd lowest since 1940. The lowest being Mike Oquist in 1998 for the A's. Gave up 14 runs in 5 innings with 16 hits allowed.

Fair enough.

Conversely, if I got to pick a team for the Indians to face in a potential ALCS, it'd be the Red Sox because of their history against Sale and Price's history of laying giant, steamy shits on the pitching rubber in big games.

I wouldn't blame you.

Just looked at espn.com and saw the nats score. Holy shit

as far as sale goes, he is on pace to:

throw 230 IP and fan 330 guys
go 20-6
ERA 2.37
ERA+ 192 (career high by 30 pts, the last time he led MLB in ERA+)
his WHIP sits at 0.888

Pedro in 1999:

213 IP
313 K's
2.07 ERA
ERA+ 243
0.923 WHIP

23-4

one of the all time great seasons...and sale is going to pass that. now if he can match 2000 pedro next year...

Oh, stop. He's having a great, maybe historical season. It's not going to match Pedro's 1999, let alone surpass it.

243 > 192

Fuck no it's not bad. It's fucking awesome. Still, won't come close to Pedro's '99. That ERA+ illustrates that. Gotta look at how they did relative to their peers.

he always does something like that... Usually it's only against the Red Sox however...

camptown races sing this song

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports the Rays are acquiring Lucas Duda from the Mets.

After deliberating for about an hour, Sherman said the deal is now official. The Mets will acquire minor league right-hander Drew Smith in return. It's a good match on paper as the Mets were looking to break up their infield logjam while the Rays needed a left-handed bat to replace Colby Rasmus. The power-hitting 31-year-old should immediately slide in as the Rays' everyday DH.
