Nick Pivetta Looks Strong Again Versus Mets
4 years agoBoston Red Sox hurler Nick Pivetta looked like an ace Wednesday as he silenced the New York Mets' bats over five innings. Just one single combined with three bases on balls was all Pivetta allowed. He has quietly become a weekly go-to starter in all fantasy formats since his move to Boston last season. He's had some issues with walks (16.5 BB%) but he's been difficult to hit all season and keeps the ball in the park (one homer allowed). This marks the fifth start where Pivetta has allowed two earned runs or fewer since joining the Red Sox staff. With scheduled starts against Detroit, Baltimore, and Oakland coming up, Pivetta should continue to limit runs for the foreseeable future.
