Chris Sale isn’t thinking about last year’s shoulder ailment that caused his regular season to get cut short. The Boston Red Sox pitcher had two separate disabled list stints in 2018 that likely took him out of the Cy Young conversation. His velocity was noticeably lower, but nothing seemed to bother the lefty during Game 5 of the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers when he struck out Manny Machado swinging to clinch Major League Baseball’s title.
