It’s understandable that Sale wouldn’t want to jinx himself after all the injuries he endured with the Boston Red Sox. Sale’s performance over the first month of the season has been a big boost for the Braves, who lost their ace starter, Spencer Strider, to a season-ending injury. Asked if Sale looks like the pitcher who had double-figure wins for seven straight seasons through 2018 — finishing in the top six of the AL Cy Young balloting each of those years — Olson insisted “he’s right there.”Sale’s slider has been a big part of his early success with the Braves, who have won 10 of 11 games to build baseball’s best record at 18-6.
