    White Sox?????

    Royals are 7-1 when Facing a lefty.

    Volquez is among the league leaders in whip.

    Royals are 7-3 against AL central opponents.

    i know you just found whip and it supper exciting to you but there lots of other things to look at in determining why his whip has been so low. namely his babip is .210 at the moment which far exceeds anything in his career, it stands to reason once some of those balls being hit land or get threw holes that his whip will go up.. his hr/fb ratio as of now is also far below his career arc, we not talking bout a guy that hasnt been around so if you wanna believe that his 3 gm sample this year is more important than what he been throughout his career more power to ya, odds are you will be starting threads about how much you hate him sooner than later tho.

    Nice write up "banker" . Isn't Danks kind of a "gas can" though??? I can't figure out who the hell is pitching this game??? One sight has Danks, SBR doesn't , the Boston papers do???

    I have watched Volquez throughout his entire career.

    It started off pretty good and then he hit a rough patch and he looked like he was on the verge on not having a job on MLB pitching staff.

    However last year something clicked for him and he has re-invented himself and so far this year its been more of the same. Volquez is on point right now and the Royals are red hot.

    He's one of those pitchers you can't predict: either throws bricks all game or have a no-hitter going through 6...

    he was solid last year. he still outperformed his metrics and while some pitchers simply do and i dont look at advanced stats as the end all be all that some do, they have far more predictive qualities than your untrained eye (no offense).. he has never had a very good k/bb ratio and last year wasnt much different, his walks were lower but so were his punch outs..

    very true, gun to my head id say he pitches well today, think im gonna look at his history on certain days rest as a lot of pitchers simply perform better on different days off..

    going back to the larussa days my cards have never been great at sweeping. their mantra has always been to win series which they have already accomplished. in theory i agree with mil side but they playing such pathetic baseball i just cant put my money on them... i like the under cause i just dont see mil winning unless their pitching is very good as i wouldnt expect lynn and the pen to give up more than 3-4 runs tops..

    which is why i went under, well mostly cause brew crew cant hit themselves out of a wet paper bag.. that 12-1 a little deceiving as before this year lynn was our resident guy we scored a ton of runs for every outing of his. his best quality was his ability to get deep into gms and keep cards in it till the offense got going..
