The right -hander of San Diego Padres, Nick Pivetta, is impatient to stay on the mound because he appreciates the best season of his career. As the playoffs approaches, he says he has no interest in taking leave.

When asked by the San Diego Union-Tribune to be resting for a week while JP Sears fills his place in the rotation for a start, Pivetta clarified his feelings.
“It’s good; it’s okay,” said Pivetta. “Obviously, when organizations think of players in this way … It’s great and I’m grateful for the break. … But when I’m in my mode – I’m feeling so good at the moment – I’m in this head space where I just want to continue. I’m going to take a break during the off -season. It’s (Bieping), especially for the city, it’s big.”
Pivetta saved these words with performance. In 29 departures this season, he has a 13-5 sheet with an MPM of 2.73 and 180 stick withdrawals. It also ends on career summits, needing 8 2/3 additional rounds to establish a personal record and nine stick withdrawals to exceed its total career of 188.
The paadres are in good position to make the playoffs, sitting four games in front of the New York dishes for the last joker point with 11 games to play. But they also follow the Los Angeles Dodgers by only two games in the West National League, leaving little margin for the error.

This emergency helps to explain the Pivetta thrust to stay on the mound. It should start this evening against the food and is planned for at least two other outings before the end of the regular season. If everything goes well, he could not only help San Diego in the division race, but also improve his own career notes.
