Thorpe went 4-1, posted a 1.20 ERA in 30 innings. He had 7 walks to 28 strikeouts while holding opponents to a .184 AVG and posted a WHIP of .87.
He gave up less earned runs in the month of April then he had games that he started.
I have to admit, I didn’t love the trade initially, but I’m glad I’m being proven wrong thus far.
The Barons might be able to beat the Sox this season.
