Jorge Sosa threw eight shutout innings today to lower his ERA to 2.55. That's half the ERA he had with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays last season. In three seasons with the DRays, Jorge posted a 5.17 ERA. What's the difference?

Fewer walks, but a lot fewer home runs. Whatever the adjustment, it's paid off for the Braves in a year in which their rotation was set back by injuries.
