    ESPN:

    Chris Sale is dominating on the mound this season, to the tune of a 13-4 record, a 2.37 ERA and 211 strikeouts in 148 1/3 innings.

    On Tuesday night, the Boston Red Sox left-hander will attempt to beat a team he has not been able to dominate during his career when he takes on the Cleveland Indians in the second game of a three-game series at Fenway Park.

    Sale is 82-47 with a 2.93 ERA lifetime against the other teams in the major leagues. However, he is just 5-7 with a 4.07 in 27 career appearances (16 starts) against Cleveland, a division rival when Sale was with the Chicago White Sox.

    Last season, Sale defeated the Indians as part of his 9-0 start. But then on May 24, 2016, he was raked for seven hits and six earned runs in 3 1/3 innings to take his first loss of the season.


    MLB:

    Sale.. is arguably on his hottest streak of the season, twirling three scoreless starts since the All-Star break. His scoreless streak of 20 2/3 innings is currently the longest in the Majors.
    As for his first season in Boston, the All-Star has already etched his name into the Red Sox's record books. Sale is the second Red Sox pitcher with 14 or more double-digit strikeout games in a season. Pedro Martinez achieved the mark twice while with Boston.

    @PeteAbe

    Per @BovadaLV, Sale is 1/5 for the Cy Young with everybody else off the board at this point.

    Works for me. I like women with a high center of gravity.

    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    Predictable.

    Who now becomes the back up catcher? Butler?

    @redsoxstats

    With Leon seemingly hurt the PawSox got a 3rd catcher from AA today. Swihart hasn't played in a month. Would need a 40-man spot for Butler.


    Romanski was promoted from AA to Pawtucket today. Coincidence?

    Yup, that seems to be the working theory.

    You can see how he reacts after he gets up.
