Nick Pivetta Improves To 6-0
4 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Nick Pivetta was credited with another win Wednesday, bringing his record for the year to 6-0. Since being acquired from the Phillies, Boston has won ten of Pivetta's 11 starts for the club. In this contest against Atlanta, Pivetta allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks in six innings of work. He struck out nine batters. Pivetta now has a 3.86 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 59 strikeouts in 53 2/3 innings. He's becoming a much more reliable fantasy asset, and is worth keeping around on rosters as long as his walks stay down and his strikeouts stay up.
