    4 games isn’t a big difference, A. Also, teams with great closers/setup men typically outperform their Pythag. You hold and close the leads you have

    Rumor out of the entire DR is that all of the 16 yr olds out of the DR have been exposed to PEDs. Your idea isn’t novel

    Do you even read the crap you post? They’re third in baseball in plus minus.

    To this point, the Sox are lucky to be playing this poorly yet facing bad competition. That stops after the break. The end of July and early August is a gauntlet Dodgers 3 Jays 4 @ O’s 3 @ TB 3 NYY 4 TB 3 @NYY 4 (in 3 days) That’s 14 consecutive games vs the teams in front of you. Teams who can pitch and hit. That run is a killshot with how the Sox have been playing. If DD is to add, he needs to do it before that run

    The pen usage is a little bit deceiving since we have 8 games started with an opener between injuries to CC, Paxton and German. Each of those openers was followed by a “bulk” guy who was technically the starter going 3-5 innings each time.

    Jhon Diaz is getting a lot of Ozzie Albies comps. Smaller stature guy with great hit ability and surprising power for his size. They have added 14 players in total. I’m intrigued by Enger Castellanos as their third best prospect. He’s a big time power guy

    The Sox went heavy in Venezuela again. Here is the BA quote

    Goodnight ladies and gents. Work in the am.

    Why was Goodrum charging that ball. Sit back and throw the slow Leon out
  10. jacksonianmarch
    throw the f***ing pitch!
  11. jacksonianmarch
    If Marco can play 2b and SS, I agree. They probably don't want to overwork the kid due to his injury history, but he can play
  12. jacksonianmarch
    I like this Marco Hernandez kid/I expect to hate him in short order. He can play
  13. jacksonianmarch
    Why does he keep pulling Holt for Nunez? I get the lefty righty thing, but Nunez cannot hit anyone
  14. jacksonianmarch
    Have you seen the team from Baltimore?
  15. jacksonianmarch
    Now THAT is a breaking ball. Brewer has a good one. He has nothing else, though
  16. jacksonianmarch
    They have one more game before a 3 day rest. They can handle it

    The comeback is on Cora. No way the sox should have stuck with Porcello beyond 5. He knew he was on borrowed time.
  18. jacksonianmarch
    Because Cora wasn't watching the same game we all were. I absolutely would have pulled him after 5. He would have been out after 3 against a good team

    Another hanger, 7-5
  20. jacksonianmarch
    Gardenhire asleep at the wheel not pinch hitting
  21. jacksonianmarch
    You have to pull him here.
  22. jacksonianmarch
    Goodrum got another hanger.
  23. jacksonianmarch
    Another hanger. Wow.

    He is not walking a lot of batters compared to the league, but he is walking the most he ever has at 2.87BB/9IP. His K rate has fallen dramatically as well down to 7.28K/9IP which is the lowest he's had since 2013. The interesting thing there is that with K's way, way up over the last 2-3 years, a drop down that far really shows a big drop in swing and miss stuff and the numbers show it. His swinging strike percentage was never elite, but it is down to the lowest he's had since 2014. He has not been good this year

    The HOF vote is typically a vote against peers. I know the counting stats usually need to be there, but we have gotten into worth and value far more to where I doubt lack of wins will keep an elite guy out. I am not worried about the state of the game in terms of competitiveness. It is cyclical. The NL has only 1 team more than 7 games out of the playoff spot. Only 3 teams more than 4 games out. Of those 3 teams, 2 are still trying to win (SF and NYM). The AL right now is in a down cycle with juggernauts and slugs. 5 teams more than 13 games out of a PO spot with the Angels and White sox slipping in the 5.5-6.5 games out range. But the WC race is really competitive with 5 teams within 3 games of each other and only 2 spots available
