4/4 @ Orioles

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Are these umpires blind? That was second really obvious call they missed, and that one is inexcusable. It wasn’t even bang bang lol

 

Looks like an eye test isn't necessary when umps are hired.

I wonder if many of them can even qualify for a driver's license.

Some of the drivers in my city. I’m sure they could lmao.

[moonslav59]

Trade JD!

 

That trade value keeps -a- risin'!

Robo Umps!

[moonslav59]

Nice to not have to face Means twice in these first 6 games vs the O's.

[TylerD]

It’s funny looking at the standings and seeing the Yankees in last place lmao

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX have scored 49 runs, so far, on April 4th. That has to be a record for one day.

[moonslav59]

Oh, the wonders of short sample sizes.

 

Just like that...

 

Verdugo's OPS is at .757 (6th inning)

 

Kike's up to .689 after starting off very low.

 

Devers .876 as he's off towards a monster year.

 

Cordero is up to .874. Bogey .799.

 

Marwin, Dalbec & Arroyo are still lagging behind, but there's time for them to bust out.

Agreed.

 

How you feeling about Pivetta? Looks like he has control issues at times but at the end of the day two solid starts on the stat sheet. Not sure I trust him against a high power offense like the Yankees though. Time will tell

[moonslav59]

Hmmm.....

[a700hitter]

That trade value keeps -a- risin'!

With this hot start, I could see teams adding an A Ball catcher to the mix of questionable prospects and 50% salary relief.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Is Josh warming in the pen? Never mind, the lead is now 6.

[moonslav59]

Agreed.

I've been high on Pivetta since we traded for him.

 

Yes, the control has always been his downfall. He's always been rated as having very good stuff.

[TylerD]

Horrible bullpen management. Not even having anyone warm up. Insane.

Ya I’m in agreement

[d-money]

6 run game. Don’t know what to make of this rotation. Still early.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cora is dying to get 6 from this thrower.

[a700hitter]

Pivetta is a 5 ERA guy. With a potent offense behind him, he could hold down the 5 slot with decent results.

The top guys need to pitch well.

Have ourselves a cheaper Rick Porcello

piggies are tired from yesterday. They need some rest and a fresh can of garbage to recover.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Pivetta has the 3rd highest ERA of active pitchers in MLB who have signicant innings pitched.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Of course, starting pitching will be the big ? on this team.. Regards, Captain Obvious.

Hahaha true.

 

Pivetta went 6 with 7 strikes outs. Gave up 4 runs. All in all not a bad day

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hahaha true.

4 runs given up always looks better when the SOX score 10.

[TylerD]

Valid point. If we did this in the first series we would have lost lol

[Joolz]

Hahaha true.

Not a bad day at all. Hi, Tyler!

Hey Joolz!!!!!!!!

5 ERA guys are difficult to find in MLB.
