| 5/05/23 | We don't got no water: Phillies vs. Red Sox series preview. The Phillies' streak of series wins came to a spectacular end in Los Angeles, where the pitching staff spent three days getting lit up by Dodgers hitters.

The Phillies visited Boston in July 2021, and after a poor Vince Velasquez start led to an 11-5 loss in the opener, the Phillies rebounded to win the next two.

| 4/02/23 | Key misses against Reds cost Vince Velasquez in Pirates debut. The upside of Vince Velasquez, one of two starting pitchers the Pirates added via free agency this winter, can be really good. Such was the case Sunday, as Velasquez made his Pirates debut against the Reds at Great American Ball Park and also committed a couple of crucial mistakes, poorly located pitches that served as the difference during a 3-1 Pittsburgh loss. It was, in many ways, a typical Velasquez outing. A few more missed spots led to another Reds run in the third before Velasquez again looked terrific in the fourth.

| 12/19/22 | A modest proposal: Game the IL and run out six strong starting pitchers. Let’s face it, last year was a planning and performance disaster for a starting rotation that was expected to push the White Sox to a division title: Failing to make an offer on Rodón, signing Vince Velasquez as the only offseason rotation arm and guaranteeing him a roster spot, presuming Dallas Keuchel would be at least an innings-eater, lucking into a resurgent Johnny Cueto only after Lance Lynn cracked his knee as was out a third of the season, and otherwise having such woebegone starter dept...
