Pivetta vs Ober Ober is better than Jax, last night's starter. 2.81 ERA over his last 5 starts, 24K and 4BB. Twins best shot at not getting swept.
-
I hate to say it, but he can't be worse than Barnes right now. I think Barnes should be given a rest and only thrown out there in low leverage situations.
-
Because of last year's shortened season, there's been an assumption that more pitchers would break down this year (seems to have happened) and that some would run out of gas early (maybe happening with Barnes). Just because you don't think he should be tired, doesn't mean he's NOT tired.
-
Shaw shoulda just retired, right guys?
-
Also, I believe Duran will have to go down for 10 days. Not sure if he's eligible to return on September 1.
-
Yes, if A = 3. Now, if that's the case, Barnes could have to face 54 A players at some point. Then he'd have to get 18 outs to get through 1 inning.
-
Interesting when noting that moon stated Barnes needed to get 6 outs!
-
Dalbec hits better than Duran right now. Fields better than him too. Seems like they are going to keep Schwarber in LF for the most part going forward.

Duran optioned back to AAA.
-
Just missed it. @RedSox The #RedSox today recalled RHP Tanner Houck from Triple-A Worcester. To make room for Houck on the active roster, the club optioned OF Jarren Duran to Worcester.
-
Sox haven't posted lineup yet. No word on corresponding move for having Houck start.
-
Nope, that's an A^4 lineup. Texas was running a 2A^2 lineup. Basically, they were combining two AA squads and forming a lineup to defeat the Red Sox.
-
Running him out for a multiple inning stint is fine. I agree, Richards can't be thrown out there in the 9th.
-
Speier is reporting today that Barnes' issues are due to locating his fastball. Barnes has said that he's leaving it out over the middle too much.

-
https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/07/red-sox-to-acquire-kyle-schwarber-from-nationals.html he’s still a couple weeks away from returning
-
I would have just simply started Shaw. He would have hit his grand slam earlier in the game and we could have run the Robles squad out there.
-
A couple of days at most. He was going to be out at least 10 days regardless from what I remember. Maybe he missed an extra 3 games? Maybe? He also skipped any rehab games.
-
He was fine in July which is also part of the 2nd half.
-
No, scouts say he's too stiff now and less athletic. He's not good at 3b.
-
The picking machine part was straight out of the book. It's one of the more memorable moments that also include Beane breaking s*** in the clubhouse and drafting Jeremy Brown.
-
The set back was a brand new injury?
-
I'm not worried about Barnes going forward. He's the same pitcher he has always been. He's the modern version of Bob Stanley.

How will the regular season end for the 2021 Boston Red Sox

Twins are on the struggle bus now too. Sox need to put the Twins down.
