No doubt. His main problem that I could see was his tightness at the plate. He seems much more relaxed these last two games and the results have been much better.
Like I'd just posted the SOX have won 9 of their last 10 with 3 starters. You seem to ignore how impressive that is. Btw, your 'too lows' definitely outweigh your 'too highs.'
Cubs actually didn't have the pitching advantage today. Paxton is having a bad game with the help of the SOX s***** defense. Btw, 'SOX s***** defense' is redundant.
Getting the Cubs' feed and learned that Masa hits the ball on the ground 56% of the time. The league average is 43%. However, he's slugging .489 and the league average is .422.

Masa

Devers

Arroyo
Wong
Kike(SS)
He's baaaack. Don't understand how a manager, who stresses defense, inserts Kike at SS again. Oh, well, maybe Kike will shine today; who knows?
Paxton vs Stroman(RH)
The Cubs start another RH pitcher, which definitely favors the SOX. Stroman is having a very good season, but so was Hendricks before last night's game. Bello and Paxton have been a great 1-2 punch in the SOX rotation.
Go SOX!
A few years ago there was an idea that the Rays could play half their home games in Tampa and the other half in Montreal. I don't believe that's part of the new plan.
