  1. This could be a sign of a rotation turn-around: Most recent start(s) IP H ER BB K Pivetta 6.2 0 0 2 8 5.0 6 3 3 6 (3 HRs in the 5th) ERod 6.0 7 3 1 7 (2 runs on infield hits) Nate last 2 starts combined 10.2 10 3 2 8 (2.53 ERA) 3 starts before June 9th implosion: 16.2 17 3 3 18 (1.62 ERA) (3.00 ERA in his last 6 games.) Martin Perez was at 3.09 on June 7th. He had 2 bad starts, then... 5.0 3 1 2 3 Richards: forget about it.
  2. We have to hope 700 keeps bashing Pivetta. Every time he bad mouths him, boom! Pivetta turns into our ace.
  3. No error by Vaz, and maybe we aren't complaining. The run tonight was unearned.
  4. I'd think Duran is ready, but I'm not an expert. I don't think we are imploding. I see 3 of our SP'ers starting to show signs of coming out of their 3-5 start funks. Sure, I hope they DFA Santana and call up Duran, tomorrow, but if they wait another day, week or month, I'll trust they have the right reasons. I'm also not sure how the Olympic commitment plays into the timing, but I sure wish they'd call him up. I won't criticize them, if they don't right away.
  5. Maybe the only way we can win this game is to get to the silly rules, extra innings.
  6. Especially to players new at using it, but yes, I agree.
  7. I guess that's the best Chavis magic we can expect.
  8. Or, giving into what they want.
  9. It's also 0-0 and we need runs. Marwin is anti-runs.
  10. We do during and after, and ultimately the after is the one that counts.
  11. Hiring Bloom was the first step. We should start seeing signs of a difference in the next year or so.
  12. Wouldn't "coddling" be letting Pivetta let up the go ahead HR, here?
  13. IMO Taking out Pivetta was the right move- no matter what happens next.
  14. Yes, in hindsight, it sure looks that way.
  15. Yes and that’s been very few games and years- not 5.5. That’s all I’m saying.
  16. Wow! We found our lead off hitter!
  17. Or a book store chain.
  18. He sucked in 2019 and played in 3 games in 2020. He pitched well before that. That’s not 5.5 years.
  19. If we end up being sellers, Barnes & Ottavino might fetch some nice returns.
  20. Well said. Hardly anyone thought much of Houck, then after 3 starts, he is a stud in the eyes of some.
  21. Looks like working out a kink in AAA was maybe needed. I hope we see him real soon.
  22. Or after the Allstate game.
  23. I’ll be so pumped when Duran gets the call. There’s a good chance he makes a nice impact. I agree on RPer is the likely trade goal.
  24. I don't think we go big splash or go over the tax line. I could be wrong. The big splash is Sale. The little splashes are a few from: Brasier, Houck, Bazardo, Valdez, Seabold, Duran and Cordero. To me, the trade will be to fill a specific need our system cannot cover and will involve a good but not great player wo is overpaid, so the prospect return will not need to be substantial- hopefully just players, Bloom does not see as being a part of the 40 man roster after rule 5 and FA additions (maybe Chavis?) There is also a chance we slide before the deadline and become sellers. This would actually make Bloom's job easier, but this team seems magical, to me, even after an 8-2 loss to the team chasing us.
