9/22-9/24 vs O's

[Thunder]

We are finishing the season way too good I don’t like it.

 

Haha we always do

Looks like we might end up with the 3rd to 5th worst record. That will still be the best draft pick we've had since 1967 (3rd pick), assuming they don't mess with the order.

 

We've never picked higher than 3rd.

 

3rd 1967 (Mike Garman)

4th 1966 (Ken Brett)

5th 1965 (Billy Conigliaro)

7th 1993 (Nixon)

7th 2013 (T Ball)

7th 2015 (Beni)

If the Sox sweep the O's - they have Eovaldi and Perez going- Baltimore jumps ahead of the Sox in the draft pick race. The Sox would probably be sitting on the 5th-7th pick heading into the last 3 with Atlanta, who are throwing their worst starters and will be playoff resting.

Pivetta's hard hit % was around 50% last night showing there was a little bit of luck involved, plus "the Orioles." I think the continued worry is that he may be a bullpen arm since he doesn't have a great pitch to get lefties out. I think the Sox have done far worse for a 5th starter than Pivetta though.

[mvp 78]

Houck and Pivetta are both in line for one more start each this weekend.

[d-money]

How was pivetta‘s velocity? Any clue?

What's your go to snack for the evening

[mvp 78]

Don’t like the contact play, but whatever.

[mvp 78]

Didn’t matter, still 5-0 regardless.

[mvp 78]

Dalbec and Arroyo with two good long ABs.

[mvp 78]

My life is much worse when I can’t hear Remy multiple times a week. This season was too short.

[mvp 78]

Bases clearing 2b for Devers. 8-0

[Thunder]

The Orioles REALLY want to come in last

[TylerD]

You know, if this was not a short season I wonder sometimes if we would make a push for the playoffs. This team over their last few games has really been playing well. We have had some decent pitching and we have won quite a few games lately. This team has me excited for next year, if we get some decent pitching we will be a force again

I concur. This season has shown me that our prospects are not as hapless as I originally thought

[mvp 78]

This team never felt like a last place team.

[mvp 78]

I think I’d rather end this s*** season on a good note.

[mvp 78]

Bust out brooms tomorrow.

[mvp 78]

I still hate the new NESN logo.

[mvp 78]

Nine nine!

[mvp 78]

Eovaldi just ended the season STRONG

[Thunder]

I still hate the new NESN logo.

 

One of our football games was on NESN last year, so I got to work with some of the guys in the production truck and most of them said they hated it too

[mvp 78]

Has it been around that long? I don’t remember it last season.

I think they changed it mid-fall, so after baseball season

Huock (If he keeps it up)

E Rod

Eovaldi

Sale

 

That’s a nice looking rotation if I do say so myself.

I like it too, but I doubt Sale is ready for the start of the season

I bet Bloom bring in another starter or two.
