Pivetta is no longer a starter per Cora. @alexspeier Cora said Pivetta wasn’t a consideration to start/open. The Sox love how he’s throwing out of the bullpen and feel they need at least 2 multi-inning options at any point, with Winckowski and Pivetta in that role.
-
They aren't still using openers are they?
-
Best I can do is counting some cars with a reject from the Pawn Stars series. Sorry...
-
Time for a new GM. I think that deal just OD'd on the "Moneyball" hype and didn't really get the right take aways from it.
-
Seems like a skill issue?
-
When the Rays used openers, they used mediocre middle relievers all the time.
-
How about since Fischer bought the A's in 05? A's: 7 (number of series wins: 1, championships: 0) Sox: 9 (number of series wins: 11, championships: 3)
-
And then they get to play outside in 100 degree heat in the desert at a AAA stadium. Fun!
-
It's a shame the Astros get extra series against OAK then.
-
Openers have always been middle relievers. Garza's numbers prior to yesterday were fine.
-
He's been better in the bullpen for a reason. Scouts have said his stuff would tick up in short stints and it has.
-
@alexspeier Alex Cora said Brandon Walter's outing reminded him of Ryan Yarbrough's ability to manipulate the ball and work to the edges.
-
He ate innings and saved the pen a little. Can't complain.
-
@Hunter_Noll Corey Rosier has been promoted to Triple-A according to the MiLB transactions page.
-
Game is over. Hamilton should try to steal 2b, 3b and home.
-
Damn, they should DFA him. Without his binky he's horrible.
-
I don't see them yanking around Yorke at this point. His glove puts him at 2B only and that would limit Valdez' playing time. Lugo is hitting 637 in AA as he hasn't been able to hit the velo at AA. Moving him up to AAA wouldn't help him at all (career low OBP of 253). No chance is Lugo promoted unless they are done with him as a prospect.
-
@SPChrisHatfield The WooSox now have 11 position players, with Enmanuel Valdez and Nick Sogard dinged up as well. They'll need some help there. Might be a good time for the Ceddanne Rafaela move that was probably coming soon anyway. Could see Tyler McDonough going too as short-term depth.
-
Why? They are a "last place team" and going to be "sellers" at the deadline. Just play out the string with what you have.
-
Twins are a first place team. Sox are a last place team! Sox are doing a great job keeping up with them this series!!!!
-
It was just a few years ago that MLB and Selig was talking about CONTRACTION!
-
Hamilton is starting at SS right now.
-
June has been Walter's best month so far at AAA: 17K, 4 BB He still doesn't look like the pitcher they wanted him to be though. Not every 6 ERA guy can get promoted and pitch well like Murphy did.
-
@jcmccaffrey Red Sox announce they acquired RHP Tayler Scott from the Dodgers, in exchange for cash considerations. To make room for Scott on the 40-man roster, the club transferred RHP John Schreiber to the 60-Day IL. Schreiber landed on the IL May 16 so he’s eligible to return July 15
-
He's the Juggernaut.
