Nick Pivetta Solid Into Sixth Saturday
3 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Nick Pivetta was at the top of his game against the New York Yankees Saturday as he gave up one run on three hits and no walks in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out seven batters and took a no-decision in the 5-3 loss. Pivetta does not have a quality start since August 13, and has been an inconsistent fantasy option all year. This outing reflects the upside Pivetta offers, but with a 4.52 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, and 166 strikeouts in 149 1/3 innings, that upside isn't worth the risk.
