    Andrew Bailey's dominant Red Sox pitching staff is getting ridiculous

    The Red Sox' pitching staff is off to a historic start through 30 games, and it all starts with new pitching coach Andrew Bailey, writes John Tomase.

    Red Sox personality has dramatic reaction to Brayan Bello's poor start vs A's

    The Boston Red Sox's pitching staff has earned the stark increase in attention it's been getting. Fans and reporters across MLB have seen pitching coach Andrew Bailey's teachings work repeatedly, but the turnaround in Boston's staff felt swift, more so than many expected. The first time through the Sox's starting rotation went exceedingly well for them. Boston boasts the lowest ERA in MLB and the starting pitchers issued just one walk in the first cycle through the rotation. Brayan Bello's second start caused some of the confidence around the Sox's pitching to dissipate.

    MLB Notebook: Early success by Red Sox pitchers a credit to Andrew Bailey

    It's far too soon to suggest that the Red Sox will continue to maintain their current 1.54 ERA, or even that every start from here on out will continue to be five innings in length or more. Not only is seven games a ridiculously small sample size, but the Oakland A's barely qualify as major league-caliber, and each of the first two series have been played in ballparks that are notoriously favorable for pitchers. Admittedly, this is not a high bar to clear: Lucas Giolito is lost for the year with a surgically-repaired elbow, and it's hard to imagine either Cooper Criswell or Chase Anderson eclipsing Bailey for impact.
