Btw, with today's win the SOX clinch the 13 game series against the Yankems. So they're 7-3 against the Jays and 7-1 against the Yankems.
The SOX are 3 games under .500 against everyone else.
Cole is 4-5 with a 5.86ERA against the SOX in 11 starts since the beginning of the 2021 season.He's given up 41 runs in 63 innings pitched.
If that's not ownership, it's pretty damn close.
IMHO, the 2003 SOX had the best offense of any SOX team I'd ever seen. Bill Mueller was batting 8th and he ended up leading the AL in BA. V-tek was batting 9th on that team and he ended up with 85 RBI.
Very good job by Bello tonight against, perhaps, the weakest hitting team in the AL. Once Bello gets command of his excellent stuff he's gonna be special.
Based on this AL rookie crop, I would think Bibee from Cleveland with a 9-2 W/L and an under 3 ERA would be the front runner at this point in the season.
He also averages @ 6 innings per start.
