Pivetta gets a pass; he's been solid most of the season. Added pressure on Pivetta tonight because there's a rookie pitching tomorrow, so that probably didn't make his job much easier.
The Cora rest days used to be one player at a time. Lately he's been 'resting' two players at a time. Is this how a manager gives his team the best shot at winning?
But then I'm not a baseball genius like manager Cora.
Story is strictly a guess hitter. If he guesses curves or change-ups correctly, he usually makes good contact. When he guesses fastball correctly, he usually can't catch up to it.
Kutter was the star today. He had a great feel for all his pitches and had the Rays completely off balance. Schrieber continues to be amazing. Great win!
