If the bullpen can hold a (currently one-run) lead for two innings (knock on wood), Wang will be 5-0 with an ERA of 3.23,
He's not considered a true ace because he had a bad game against the Red Sox.
You know, the Red Sox. The only Yankee opponent that most people pay attention to. Well, not just the Red Sox. The Mets, too.
The playoffs, too. That's fair. Beckett obviously has a big edge in the playoffs at this point in their respective careers.
Maybe Wang is not considered a true ace because he doesn't typically strike out enough batters.
I'm not sure what the reasoning is. Whatever the reasoning is, it's flawed reasoning.
