There’s no justice. Chacin pitched as well last night as I have ever seen him pitch, and Matsuzaka gets all the ink.
I dont know how Chacin always seems to rise to the occasion. His numbers are not great, but he wins. I know he has had alot of run support in the past, but tuesdays game was awesome. Hopefully a sign of things to come.
Chacin was money last night. Sure did look like a #3 starter last night. We just need Burnett to start pitching like a #2 starter now.
