While they may not be lights out, they can hover right around the quality start benchmark of 3 ER / 6 IP, even against good teams. And right our offense is on fire, so we don't need 1 ER / 7 IP aces. My concern is who closes in a tight game.
Look I like in Philly and Pivetta did nothing here which is why the Phillies gave up on him. I say the Stros scorch him for 7 runs tonight and he's chased after the 3rd
Don't get me wrong E-rod and Evoldi are ok, but they are all a number 4 or 5 starter on most clubs. They are doing fine now but sooner or later they will implode. None of those starters are top of line guys. Period. But none of that matters right now. The Astros bats gave up. I don't know. It's almost like they are throwing this series. Maybe Altuve and Correa bet on the Sox

I'm glad I spent the evening watching Poltergeist with my daughter instead.

Sox need the last game at Fenway. That would make for an exciting end to a good series.
RE: The Baseball Thread!!! - divmenow - 10-20-2021
Framber!! What a performance
RE: The Baseball Thread!!! - ken-do-nim - 10-20-2021
The Sox offense I was gloating about just went cold the last two games, period.
I'm just hoping game 6 is at least close!
RE: The Baseball Thread!!! - fenders53 - 10-20-2021
Allowing 9 runs a game is problematic as well. This series is over.

Congrats. I hope the Astros win!
And I believe we will have many more playoff series ahead of us in the coming years.
