Ive been saying for a while, but Dice-K turned a corner after his ERA reached a season high 5.45 back on May 9. He had the bad start in Tex where he was sick and then another one after that (where he was probaly still feeling the effects) but during that stretch since then hes been a very good pitcher. Even with the 2 bad starts his ERA since May 9 is 3.12.
