:lol: Only around here could a few losses in 1 run games be more focused on that this stat here.

Some Sox fans will do anything to take shots at the Cubs. And then will be the first to say that Cub fans care more about the Sox than the Cubs.

Incorrect.

The criticism is that the so called best pitching staff of the last half century cannot even muster up a .500 record in 1 run games.


ONLY 5 posts in the 29 hours from Mister I don't waste my time on the Cubs... am I missing something

Well the Sox actually took a couple series against a very good team (Red Sox) and a decent team (Blue Jays). But yea the White Sox are still pretty awful.

Nah because the Reds got swept by the Cubs in the regular season that means they would automatically win a playoff series #cubslogic

I am not unwilling to admit the Cubs may be the best bumslaying team of all time.

Right now the most consistent pitcher to this point is Kyle Hendricks and he has the stats to prove it.

I meant worst in the last 50 years. Apologies for the typo.

Crazy thing is that Lackey is likely to get a win or a no decision.

Still plenty of games to go...I do think the starting pitching will bounce back, but this staff is not looking as good as the 2003 rotation these days.

Cubs are so back on target it is ridiculous.

Since the All-Star break, Cubs starting pitching has a 2.72 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and .616 OPS.

Overall pitching since the break is 2.38 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and .599 OPS.

July/August stats mean nothing. Let's revisit this in Oct/Nov...that's when it matters.

Heyward will carry the burden. He has done so well to this point he has nowhere to go but up.
