Cora deserves that run for sticking with Pivetta after a walk and four straight 100 MPH balls the third time through the order Yeah another bad game this week for Cora. Yikes.

Could you ask for anyone better to face for an immaculate inning than Dalbec?
EDIT: And he bounces in the 8th pitch...

RISP 1-7 Boston.
RISP 4-9 TB.
Difference in the game, more or less.

Apparently Cora, Chaim and brain trust feel that Robles just needs to find something, else why do they keep running him out there? I agree with others on this board, can't they find someone from Worcester that can match or better what Robles is giving them?

I agree with others on this board, can't they find someone from Worcester that can match or better what Robles is giving them? I think it's just rocking everyone's world that a pitcher who throws 96-98 can possibly be this terrible. But if you have no idea where the ball is going and no good secondaries...

The killer is going to be we DFA him, and the Rays pick him up and he's lights out in September like he was for us last year.

The funny thing is Robles has actually gotten a bit lucky this year. Coming into tonight he had a 5.70 ERA and 6.20 xERA. .352 wOBA, .396 xwOBA.
Edit: Other gems from his Savant page:
* 1st percentile avg exit velo * 1st percentile chase rate * 3rd percentile xwOBA/xERA * 14th percentile BB% * 25th percentile K%
Fire him into the sun. Or the (O)ort Cloud, as it were.

Tonight is worth it if it gets Robles off the team At least Phillips Valdez gives you length for the time being, Robles gives you a one inning adventure. Never a good adventure.

Robles is hurt. Wouldn't be crazy to give him another break and see if he can make the playoff bullpen. There's a bunch of easy 40 man cuts

Why would Cora be using him instead of doing a Barnes? I mean, he was good at the start of the year, then stunk and went on the IL with a back problem and has stunk since he came back. I wouldn't expect him to be on the active roster much longer one way or another

Tonight is worth it if it gets Robles off the team Bloom has consistently shown he’s slow to DFA and usually they only do it when they run out of room on the 40. And the next move will certainly be Barnes to the 60 to kick the can down the road. So maybe Taylor is ready tomorrow and they do it for Sale next week? I’m just not sure we’ll see the Kelly for Robles swap everybody wants to see based on how Bloom has run it the last few years

When will our lord and savior Franchy Cordero get to hit against a righty? Rays are the analytics champs. Franchy must be respected.
