Red Sox Rick Porcello Shows Why He’s Trade Bait No Longer

After the disaster that was 2015, who would have thought that Rick Porcello would be the one to steer the Red Sox ship in the right direction? Last night’s performance gave Boston the victory and snapped their four-game losing streak. It was just the second win for the Red Sox in the last eight games.

The 27-year-old Porcello took that 82.5 million dollar right arm and went into Angel Stadium of Anaheim, throwing with a purpose. He threw all nine innings against the Los Angeles Angels, allowing only two runs on five hits, no walks, and three strikeouts.
