Thread: 9/30 SOX @ O's 7:05PM

  1. #1

    9/30 SOX @ O's 7:05PM

    N.Pivetta(RH) 9-7 4.52ERA vs A.Wells(LH) 1-3 7.61ERA


    Hopefully, the SOX offense won't make this 7+ ERA clown resemble Sandy Koufax tonight.

    Go SOX!

    Let's hope Pivetta shows the same calm intensity he showed his last start.

    When exactly do you mean?

    I believe Pivetta brings intensity to every start. I just hope he has good stuff tonight.
    'Calm intensity'? OK, I'll go with that. It does sound like an oxymoron though.

    He seems to look very calm most of the time. After the third out, he sometimes does a strong fist pump, but for the most part his body language seems calm, to me. His facial expressions show concentration and focus, to me.

    Either way, we need the good Pivetta, tonight.

    As much as each of those Yankee games were huge, and they were basically 2 game swings, I feel like this game is just as big.

    4 games left. SEA a half back. The Jays one back. The Yanks one up. It doesn't get much tighter than this!

    GO SOX!!!!

    No Dalbec vs the lefty.

    I won't scratch my head on this one. People thought I had dandruff, yesterday.

    I like what Cora has done all year.

    Plawecki for 2 straight starts. I'm not going to claim this is CERA related, but here are the 2020-2021 numbers:

    Pivetta with Plawecki:

    2.59 ERA (49 IP) 200 PAs Against (.630 OPS)

    Pivetta with Vazquez:

    5.12 ERA (111IP) 480 PAs Against (.767 OPS)

    Cora da Man!

    Pivetta tomorrow night. He's been great with Plawecki: 43.2 IP, 2.68 ERA, 3.67 FIP, .628 OPS

    Run it back again

    Can't ignore the numbers for Plawecki. Eovaldi and Pivetta are much better with him behind the plate

    I’m not big on Schwaber as you know especially playing D, but Bobby D has regressed back to the bad Bobby D. Personally I would have gone back to last nights winning lineup, but we’ll see.

    Dalbec does seem like he's back to his old ways, but that was a pretty quick benching. I'm not complaining or scratching my head, mind you- just pointing out the flip side of a tough choice by Cora.
