There is a stat for relievers which should outweigh all others : How many times did a relief pitcher record the final out of a game with his team still in the lead. Advanced stat: How many times did the reliever's team not win the game in which he faced the last batter of the opponent. Combine the two for a plus/minus number.
Strahm's whole act is getting wearisome. One of the attributes of a good relief pitcher is that they are ready to go when the chumpire signals to him to pitch. Strahm was still warming up.
Velasquez ? Of all the nothing hitters. Angels might outscore the Sox for the 4game series and still lose 3 of 4. Shame on Sox hitters for not busting this open
For all the greatness of winning these first three, keep in mind the Sox have only scored 8 runs total in 3 1/3 gamed. Only the Angels are worse. The offense is asleep again
