July 31: Red Sox @ Mariners

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Very good job tonight by Pivetta. Hard to win with 1 run on your side. And it wasn't even an earned run.

[Jasonbay44]

Yes, on bereavement leave, and the AS break not too long ago, too.

 

I wonder if the death in his family hit him hard.

 

Definitely could be a mental thing.

[d-money]

Hit by pitch.

[Jasonbay44]

Great effort by Pivetta. Hopefully dipshit Jacques doesn’t allow any runs to score and keeps the comeback possible

[Duran Is The Man]

good gawd. hit the first f***ing batter.

[d-money]

Jacques really trying hard to make this difficult.

[illinoisredsox]

Yes, on bereavement leave, and the AS break not too long ago, too.

 

I wonder if the death in his family hit him hard.

 

Bereavement leave was in late June. He’s really struggled since then though, so it is a theory.

[illinoisredsox]

good gawd. hit the first f***ing batter.

 

Just setting up the DP?

[d-money]

F U jacques.

[Jasonbay44]

Jacques continues to be garbage. Hopefully they leave him Seattle

[Duran Is The Man]

what a shitshow this clown is.

[Duran Is The Man]

no wonder the Pirates dumped this loser.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It's ovah! Before tomorrow night's game we'll know what moves Bloom has or hasn't made. I wouldn't be surprised if he sells some players.

[Maxbialystock]

Pivetta was great. His manager, not so great.

[illinoisredsox]

Jacques and the Sox offense may well have made Bloom’s decision for him.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Jacques continues to be garbage. Hopefully they leave him Seattle

 

That would be littering, which is against the law.

[illinoisredsox]

Pivetta was great. His manager, not so great.

 

Sox offense has had a lot more to do with this. They hit a little and it’s a different bullpen game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Let's see if Wong gets treated like a ghost runner.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Let's see if Wong gets treated like a ghost runner.

 

Nope, he made it to 3rd.

[illinoisredsox]

Turner did not look good tonight. Seemed late on everything.

[moonslav59]

We need to demote Jacques, now.

 

Bring up Walter, until the next IL guy is ready.

 

Llovera, too.

 

Maybe we trade for someone that forces a demotion.

[moonslav59]

Turner did not look good tonight. Seemed late on everything.

 

Trade the bum!

[Jasonbay44]

Hopefully Turner isn’t injured

[moonslav59]

Bad timing on a 3 game losing streak.

[illinoisredsox]

Have to admit, after the first inning, the M’s flashed some really good leather.

[Jasonbay44]

That was a hell of a play by JP Crawford

[illinoisredsox]

Sox with 10 LOB, Seattle had 2

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

1-3. There is a numerical run scoring pattern. 3-2-3-2. I'm guessing SOX get 3 runs tomorrow. Hopefully, it's enough.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX finish July 15-8. Starting Aug.1st the SOX will play 31 games in 33 days. Ouch!

[redsoxrules]

I guess nobody wanted to be on here admitting Pivetta can pitch from a starting role.

 

He was always able to. The problem with him his consistency. Even the past couple of years he had hot stretches like he's currently on but then looked like dog s*** the remainder of the year. I'm not sold on him until he can do this for the entire year
