This is ridiculous.
Pinto sucks

Andrew Vaughn hit by pitch. Eloy Jiménez to 3rd. Gavin Sheets to 2nd.
Pinto trying to blow a 9 run lead, now has the tying run at the plate.
Alvarado coming into try to save this game.
Pinto should be packing for a trip off the roster.
I really hate giving the Sox life in this series.
Well when Walker comes back, we know who will be leaving.
Or do they swap Pinto for Mercado or Castillo now???? Walker is pitching a rehab start tomorrow, so no need to activate him until Thursday or Friday
This is our 3rd reliever with a 5 run game this year (he may give up 8). A large percentage of the runs our bullpen has given up are in 3 pitchers going about 1 inning.

Thank god. I think Iâve seen enough of Pinto.

One pitch and Alvarado gets the save.
Wheeler gets his first win.
Good offense and great pitching for 8 innings. Pinto likely will be gone. His 11.17 ERA is not impressive. Maybe they can get him through waivers and back to AAA.
It is really hard to imagine he gets claimed. . I donât think T-Ball teams are allowed to claim pitchers in MLB

Swap him for Mercado before first pitch tomorrow.

That's too many pitches as his limit!
