  1. No, not based on 4 bad innings. Based on age and decline.
  2. And they aren’t seeing it in Milwaukee either.
  3. Maybe he has aged out of what he had been previously. I think his contract extension will be a sunk cost. I am still baffled that Bloom extended him in season.
  4. Bernie Williams on the Yankees was like that. He didn’t have the quick acceleration to steal bases, but he went 1st to 3rd and 1st to home as well as anyone.
  5. You were pretty much dead on accurate that his early season performance was not sustainable. Everything in his extensive body of work plus his age pointed in that direction.
  6. They could recoup the money they lost on all those Panda hats that they had to shred.
  7. You start off with “no” and proceed to contradict yourself. Most of his saves were 1 inning or less and only 1 was 2 innings or more.
  8. Houck has been likened to Sale by some people and Sale was able to pitch successfully out of the pen as a closer, so I see no harm putting Houck there temporarily.
  9. 40% — I have a comfortable margin. Whew!
  10. I need to keep my record for accuracy above 50% so I am better than a replacement poster.
  11. Wasn’t Sale a closer initially?
  12. I like the 2 inning save idea.
  13. Don’t ask me. I was an early adopter on that opinion.
  14. Robles stinks and he is a complete idiot. He is always confused by the signs (which is funny because he only has 2 pitches), often doesn’t know the count, and is clueless about whether a teammate is ready for a pickoff throw.
  15. Can we get some charts for the doubters?
  16. So Robles will be the closer? Oye!
  17. What the hell was that!
  18. I turned the game off after Renfroe’s 2nd HR figuring that the game was in the bag. And now it is 11-9 with men on 1st and 2nd for the Twins with no one out and the head pig , Robles on the hill. WTF!
  19. Has Houck earned another start?
  20. It’s like my Dad used to say when we asked for anything, “we don’t have the money”. Apparently. The billionaires who own the Red Sox are as poor as my Dad.
  21. I think MVP was tongue in cheek, but Notin thinks he was doing accurate fact checking. Just my opinion.
  22. Schwarber in LF. First Base is not going to happen.
  23. it looks like Sale’s game was merely a pause after the hapless Rangers spanked us 10-1 at Fenway on Sunday night.
  24. This let out whatever air remained in my hope balloon. Thoroughly deflating game.
  25. This is getting ugly.
