Not sure about the "walking the batter before Ortiz" strategy.

Despite grounding into the double play Darwin Barney has been on quite the little hot streak.

I will definitely take 3 runs scored in 4 innings against Price any day.

EE definitely checked his swing there. First base ump blew that call.

Dickey is in the middle of a no-hitter.

Though he's been better lately, Price Era still over 5, half run higher higher than Dickey. 7-1 record vs 2-6. Baseball is funny like that sometimes.

Had to go look up what wRC+ was. Thole at 21 is an incredibly low number. On the scale they had to help explain it, the lowest number they showed was 60 and that was rated as 'Awful'. Need a new word to describe what 21 would be.

100 is average, so...

Dickey with a pretty damn good outing so far. 5 walks sure, but keeping the Red Sox to 1 run through 6 innings is great.

Dickey yanked in the 7th. Only gave up 2 hits, fantastic outing.

I let Dickey finish that inning. Not sure I like this move. Hopefully the pen gets that one out.

And that last knuckler on the strikeout was dirty. I got motion sickness just watching it on TV.
