6 blown saves in 8;opportunities and close to a 20 ERA in his last 7 appearances with opponents hitting around .450. It’s time to give him and his trainer a one way ticket out of town.
I’d be happy to make a thread like that everyday if it meant a Red Sox win. I wasn’t going to ask you to make the thread if they lost. Losing the game hurts enough. Let’s keep winning! And let’s get a closer!
Unfortunately, I could believe what I was seeing. They squeaked this one out, but they need a hammer in the pen if they want to beat teams like Toronto and the Yankees.
Congratulations, Max. You will get your thread tomorrow.
This is an enjoyable competitive game with Pivetta battling a very tough lineup, but this will be his last inning and then the parade of pigs from the pen will wreck this game.
