July 15th Red Sox at Yankees

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Gallo is actually a worse hitter than JBJ.

[FredLynn]

More of the same shite from Martinez.

I just don’t see this team making the playoffs. They just aren’t good enough. It’s entirely possible they could be a last place team.

[redsoxrules]

Gallo is actually a worse hitter than JBJ.

 

No he isn't. Only in terms of batting AVG.

He's also a 0.3 WAR for the season unlike a negative WAR for JBJ

Verdugo has been quite a disappointment this year. He actually has a negative WAR on the season

I'd say the two highest paid everyday players have been a disappointment this year. Btw, you sure love your WAR.

[redsoxrules]

We got Verdugo to replace Betts. It's just as bad

I forgot about Story. So I should have posted 2 of the 3 highest paid everyday players.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

JBJ is being paid $800,000.00 more per season than Devers. Of course, that is subject to change.

[FredLynn]

I take back everything I said about Dalbec.

Not

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Looks like Chapman isn't all the way back.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That JBJ is getting 12 mil/year and Gallo is getting 10 mil/year is utterly ridiculous.

[FredLynn]

That JBJ is getting 12 mil/year and Gallo is getting 10 mil/year is utterly ridiculous.

 

That Bradley is still playing baseball is utterly ridiculous.

[redsoxrules]

Chapman blows, all the Sox hitters need to do is stay patient and they will get walks. Downs just swung at ball 4

Jeter Deion Downs. Derek Jeter; Deion Sanders; Downs on strikes. Edited July 16, 2022 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

Can the bullpen hold down thisb1 run lead?

[FredLynn]

Can the bullpen hold down thisb1 run lead?

 

Not a chance

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The #13 isn't unlucky when it's worn by a terrible hitter.

[iortiz]

Downs caught that ball like a football player does lol

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX could trade JBJ for Gallo and save 2 million dollars.

[Tedballgame]

I wonder how baseball owners and GMs valued players for 100 years without WAR?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX could trade JBJ for Gallo and save 2 million dollars.

 

Speaking of 2 million dollars, that's what the Yankems are paying Carpenter.

[FredLynn]

The SOX could trade JBJ for Gallo and save 2 million dollars.

 

We could release him and save the rest of it

If only baseball contracts weren’t guaranteed

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The terrible Reds played both the Rays and Yankems just prior to the SOX and the Reds took 5 out of 6.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That was a 'gut punch' to both Aaron's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No baseball announcer whines better or more often than Mary Kay.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great job by both Schreiber and Whitlock.

[Jasonbay44]

Let Whitlock finish this

[redsoxrules]

And this is why Whitlock needs to stay in the pen. Dude goes on the DL for this long and comes back and shuts the door on the heart of the Yankees lineup to conserve the 1 run lead.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Let Whitlock finish this

 

 

Houck is the closer who should be well-rested.
