Both sides of town have been wasting some terrific starting pitching. At this very moment, the Sox more so than the Cubs, but the Cubs have nothing to brag about either. When a staff knows that they can't afford to give up even a couple of runs it makes each inning more stressful than when a team is scoring some runs on a daily basis.
Danks was terrific today and gets another loss. The Sox better get their bats going, because the pitching will also run into a down period. That's just baseball.
In the NL Central, the Brewers might be having one of those years. In the Sox division, you don't want to be behind 3 teams come the all-star break. It could be a long season. JMO.
