At least there’s no-one with an infinite ERA this

season!"30 Diamondbacks took the mound this season http://www.piratesfanproshop.com/authentic-josh-bell-jersey , though I’m taking an executive decision to exclude Daniel Descalso, Alex Avila and Jeff Mathis from qualifying for this award. We do not want a whole ‘Boaty McBoatface’ situation here, thank you very much. Though I note sadly, all three of the position players to pitch for the D-backs in 2018 had a better ERA than Shelby Miller had over his sixteen innings of work... [And Kris Medlen too, though at least he had the wisdom to retire from the game] And Alex Avila had a better fielding-independent ERA than everyone bar Patrick Corbin and Andrew Chafin. But, still...No.In some ways, the five candidates pick themselves: choose the five guys with the lowest ERAs to have thrown at least fifty innings last year. T.J. McFarland, Yoshihisa Hirano, Clay Buchholz, Corbin and Zack Greinke. Job done, thanks for coming, I’ll start writing up the poll post. But perhaps there could be cases made for some outside the top five. Andrew Chafin, for example, fell just two outs short of the 50 IP qualifier, while having a lower ERA than Corbin or Greinke, and as noted above, having one of the best FIPs on the team. That’s doubly impressive Willie Stargell Jersey , given Chafin’s well-known struggles with putting the first batter faced aboard (14 BB + 2 HBP of 77 there, compared to 11 + 0 of 134 thereafter). Other possible fringe candidates include Jimmie Sherfy, who now sports a regular-season career ERA of exactly one after 27 appearances. Or Yoan Lopez, whose K:BB ratio of 11:1 was among the best in franchise history [The Play Index at Baseball Reference is down at the time of writing so I’m going to have to remain kinda vague on that statement!] My immediate thought is that it’s unlikely any of these will move the needle particularly much, and we’re likely to go with the five initial candidates mentioned above. However, #ChangeMyMind. That’s what the comments section is for, as we seek to establish the nominees for this penultimate category.

The longest road trip of the month is seven games, at the Detroit Tigers and Baltimore Orioles, April 18-24. The longest homestand is 10 games, hosting the Tigers Felipe Vazquez Jersey , Orioles and Boston Red Sox, April 26-May 5.That’s right, for an ungodly 13 games in the second half of April, the White Sox will be celebrating all that is Quadruple-A baseball, exclusively battling the detritus that is Detroit and Baltimore.Projected record 12-17MayThe White Sox have two seven-game road trips in April, at Cleveland and the Toronto Blue Jays on May 6-12 and at the Houston Astros and Minnesota Twins May 20-26. The longest homestand is the 10-gamer mentioned above. The quirky schedule that saw the White Sox play essentially all of their games vs. Baltimore in April, every game vs. Toronto gets played in May this season.Projected record 12-19 Season record 24-36JuneThe White Sox have a an eight-game road trip in June, although just six are outside of the city: June 18-26 at the Cubs, Texas Rangers and Boston. The longest homestand is a 10-gamer that extends into July, June 28-July 7 hosting the Twins, Tigers and Cubs.It’s a languid month for the White Sox, with just 24 games and six off-days.Projected record 7-17Season record 30-53July The White Sox have just one road trip in July, but it’s a whopping, 10-game coast-to-coaster, July 12-21 at Oakland, Kansas City and the Tampa Bay Rays. Two 10-game homestands bookend the month, the Minny-Detroit-Cubs stand that leads into the All-Star Game on July 9 Sean Rodriguez Jersey , and a Miami Marlins-Twins-New York Mets run from July 22-August 1.In addition to the weird coast-to-coast roadie assigned the White Sox, there’s a strange Florida combo: July 19-21 in Tampa, followed immediately by the Marlins in Chicago July 22-24.Projected record 12-12Season record 42-65AugustThere’s a seven-game road trip August 15-21, starting out in Anaheim and hitting the Twins on the way home. It’s offset by a seven-game homestand August 22-29, taking on Minny and Texas.Mid-month is particularly rough as the dog days set in, with consecutive series against Oakland, Houston and the Angels.Projected record 12-17Season record 54-82SeptemberThere’s one last smack in the face for the White Sox, a 10-game final road trip September 13-22, covering three time zones at the Seattle Mariners, Minnesota and Detroit. Two six-game homestands are the best to come in the final month of the season, hosting the Angels and Royals September 6-12, and the final season stretch, hosting Cleveland and the Tigers September 24-29.Projected record 11-15Season record 65-97This hot mess of a roster, improving three games on last season? Seems about right.
