You don't think he was very sharp today? He looked pinpoint to me. Even the hits that he gave up werent bad pitches. Sometimes you tip your hat to the hitter. He got ahead almost every single hitter. Then, when there were runners in scoring position, he was perfect.

Rays helped him out a little bit in the end. Hence the low pitch count. He was decent overall though, pretty damn good for your first start of the season

I'm trying to say that he hit his spots and executed his pitches. Its not that they helped us, he just pitched out of it. His low pitch count was due to him getting ahead and putting the hitters in a defense mode, rather than a fastball mode. When you get ahead and force defensive swings, you aren't going to hit the ball on the barrel. He was great today considering all of the factors

I do agree he was pretty good at getting ahead of batters today.
