I would love to see Dempster pitch this well the rest of the season.

He is definitely turning into a serviceable 3-4 starter. Definitely not worth the money, but he is giving you innings and production. Hopefully next season we can get a straight 3.5 era or lower effort all season.

Turning into one? When wasn't he one. A 4.00 era and 3.90 era the whole season is pretty solid for that role. He's better than the Red Sox or the Dodgers or the Phillies or the Yankees 3-4 starters.
