I'm more surprised by Price's because as you have pointed out, a reliever's ERA can fluctuate pretty wild this early in the season from a bad outing or two.
He stated that he wasn't sure if anyone in the game was as good of a pitch framer as Vaz.
Pretty sure my response has everything to do with that statement, no?
Ummm, that was not a heyday of dominance.
Dominant teams don't miss the playoffs and also should be able to put together some back to back championships.
Nice try though.
At least I was alive to see one of their many "heyday of dominance".
Were you alive in the early part of the last century when the Sawx had their only heyday of dominance?
