If not for the GS he would have been alright but no master of his own control that's for sure ... at least they came back to win it!
Anyone try to talk Ortiz out of retiring?!?!?!

www.bostonherald.com/sports/red_sox/clubhouse_insider/2016/07/clay_buchholz_knows_time_with_red_sox_may_be_short Credit: AP Clay Buchholz knows he’s the odd man out with the Red Sox. He also knew Tuesday afternoon how many days it had been since he’s faced hitters — 17. And he knows he might be traded. At this point, it's possible he might want to be. Asked what he would choose between starting for another team and relieving for the Sox, Buchholz made clear the opportunity he wants most is not available in Boston — not now. “I consider myself a starting pitcher. That’s what I’ve done,” Buchholz said. “I don’t feel like I’m to the point in my career where I’ve declined to the point where I can’t get guys out on a regular basis being a starter. Buchholz sees the writing on the wall. “Like I’ve said 100 times before, this is the only place that I’ve ever been,” Buchholz said when asked if he’d benefit from a change of scenery. “I wouldn’t really know what to expect being somewhere else. “But I also know that ... I’m not stupid. I know all the stuff that’s going on right now (in trade season). If it comes to that, then I’ll cross that bridge whenever I have to get to it. And, first and foremost I have to pitch better whenever I’m called on. “It makes it a little bit tougher not knowing when you’re gonna pitch. In my case, I think today’s the 17th day that I haven’t faced hitters. That’s a long time.”

He's baaaaaaaaaaaccccck ......  AP PhotoAt least that’s the takeaway from the Red Sox’ 4-3 loss to the Tigers yesterday, a game in which Buchholz deserved the win. He pitched six innings, allowing just one run and no walks. His return to the rotation — this was his second start since July 2 — remains up in the air, but he was the bright spot on one long day for the Red Sox. After giving up on a five-hour, weather-related wait at the Baltimore airport Wednesday, when he tried to get out of town in order to get a good night’s sleep ahead of yesterday’s matinee, Buchholz returned to Camden Yards to fly with the team. He got to the team hotel in Detroit with his teammates at 4 in the morning. “I went to bed at 5 and woke up at 9:15,” said Buchholz, who looked and sounded spry shortly after the loss. “I felt fine. This has happened before. (Today) I’ll probably feel not good at all. That’s part of it. You’ve got to take some of that with being a baseball player. Travel is not always going to go exactly as planned. As far as the weather and ESPN games, there’s not very many ESPN games that get postponed. There was that. The guys came out and played a good game today. It was just a matter of a couple of hits and a couple of pitches as the deciding factor.” Buchholz had only one tough stretch, in the second inning, when the Tigers strung two singles together before a sacrifice fly brought in their run. He cruised after the second inning, allowing just two more singles. As someone who was starting to become a reliable reliever, Buchholz stuck with what was working. “I felt good. I went just out of the stretch for the whole start, less moving parts and some things I’ve been working on. I feel like that keeps me over the rubber a little bit longer and enables me to command a little bit better,” Buchholz said. “I still spun out of a few and lost a changeup that hit Miguel Cabrera). Overall, I felt like I minimized damage.” Manager John Farrell certainly left the door open for Buchholz to stay in the rotation. “He’s making a strong case for it. He was very good,” Farrell said. “I thought that was the most consistent quality of strikes he’s thrown in any given outing all year, particularly in the starting role. He held his velocity well, he had a very good curveball, good cutter, didn’t really need his changeup all that much, put the ball on the ground, got a couple of key strikeouts. It was very strong outing by Clay today.”
