The trade was whatever if you ignore the money aspect. Going over the CBT in that year was inexcusable and largely due to that trade.
Up next, 4 @ White Sox.
They are a .500 club without Casas for sure. Maybe they'd be above .500 if he was around.
Feels like a split to me.
And indecision at the trade deadline. They had ample opportunity to get back under…
"Salvaged something" not made the trade a good one, overall.
It will always be a bad trade, unless DHam goes nutty.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
When Pivetta is on, he looks awesome.
I know you can say that about a lot of pitchers, but Nick has had a few very nice stretches in several seasons, along with some real stinker stretches.
Since May 28th, last year, he has been excellent.
110 pitchers with 120+ PAs (before today's awesome game)
ERA-
14. Houck 73 (ahead of Kelly & Verlander)
17. Pivetta 76 (probably up close to Houck, now. Ahead of Gray and Monty))
41. Crawford 90 (tied with Nate & Nola)

Maybe Denny Galehouse will eventually graduate Pivetta from the ranks of the ham and eggers.
Nick's career numbers do look pretty average, but he has pitched a lot of damn good games over the last year. Today's performance was as ace-like as you could ask for.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
Sox fans feel like they're swingin' on a pendulum these days.

Had to tape today's game. Great performance all around. Pivetta was excellent. Congrats to Westbrook getting his 1st ML hit. A very touching moment.
All in all one of the SOX best games of the season.
Right you are. Man, you really need some game with this CBT figurin' shit now.

He has pitched like the teams #1 or 2 pitcher for some stretches longer than 2-3 months.Maybe Denny Galehouse will eventually graduate Pivetta from the ranks of the ham and eggers.

He's pitched like a #3 for 2-3 month stretches, too.
ERA/FIP
3.97/3.98 first 15 starts w BOS ('20-'21)
4.73/4.45 next 17 GS (to end of .21)
7.84/5.48 first 5 starts of '22
2.60/3.17 next 12 GS '22
5.67/5.39 last 15 GS of '22
6.30/5.73 first 9 GS of 23 (sent to pen)
3.16/3.27 end of '23 (8GS and 22 as RP)
3.40 ERA first 8 GS of '24
His bad stretches are usually not all that long, but sometimes they are and they can be really bad (below a #5.)

The White Sox have a total of only 15 wins so far this season. They might be one of the worst teams in a long time.
Old school is good school.
Can't make any predictions with this RED Sox team, but 3 out of 4 should be the over-under.
