David Price Starting Over Chris Sale In Game 5
6 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher David Price will start Game 5 of the World Series against the Dodgers on Sunday instead of Chris Sale on normal rest. Price tossed 88 pitches in Game 2 on Wednesday in Boston, 13 pitches in Game 3 on Friday and warmed up in Game 4 on Saturday. Manager Alex Cora said Sale will be lined up for a potential Game 6 back in Boston on Tuesday. Sale has been dealing with left shoulder inflammation since August and wasn't at his best in Game 1. Price has been solid in his last two postseason starts, but he'll be going on just one day of rest after pitching in relief on Friday and is a much more shaky DFS pick.
