Tough decision for Cora when Whitlock returns. He can't put Kluber in the BP, unless it's strictly for clean-up duty. I'm guessing if Kluber gets Klubbed in his next start, he might be either put on the IL or DFA'd.
The Rays keep a rollin' and why not. They're #1 in every major offensive category except for runs and BA, in which they're closely 2nd to Texas.
Oh, and their pitching and defense are pretty good, also.
Here are the W/L records of the 5 teams whose ERA's are worse than the SOX:
White Sox-19-30
Colorado---19-28
Cincinatti--19-27
KC---------14-34
Oakland---10-38
The 24th ranked team in ERA is the Mets at 4.68.
The 5.01 isn't the team's average ERA. It's Sale's ERA, which is the lowest of the SOX starters, not counting Paxton, who's only pitched 11 innings.
Btw, the SOX team ERA is at 4.81, which is the 6th worst in MLB.
