  1. He has said all along that the bats should heat up when the weather warms up, but shouldn't the opposition's bats warm up as well? Waiting for the summer to have a good offense is a bad way to do it. I don't think Contreras is hitting too far above his weight class. He may dip a little, but I don't see him really tanking. He's still adjusting to being a fulltime 1b, so we don't really know how his offense is impacted for better or worse.
  2. Jack Winnay is still learning 3b, but may be taken off of it sooner than later. 28 G, 9 E, .866 % He was 1B/OF in College. I think having him play 3B was to find him more AB's and to fill an org need.
  3. Jack Winnay April 644 OPS, 1 HR May 1113 OPS, 7 HR
  4. Harrison was the main prospect coming out of the trade. It was Harrison and the unknown of Tibbs. The Sox needed to get more for the Raffy trade. They didn't get "nothing." They got "nothing" when they dealt Hamilton, Harrison and Drohan to the Brewers. Trading Tibbs a few weeks later for May was awful. I don't know why they pulled the plug on him so quick. The return on the Devers trade was a C- and as a Devers fan I wanted more. The return on the subsequent deals have been D-'s.
  5. Alex 78-84 Cora certainly does know a lot about baseball. He also seemed to wear out his welcome here. I think switching managers shouldn't be a very big deal. They got rid of Terry Francona and won a few more WS somehow.
  6. The first time I read about statistics ruining baseball was an article in Sport Magazine back in the late 80's early 90's.
  7. Hard to say what the outcome of any of his injuries are until we see him on the mound again.
  8. Tolle, maybe? I thought he'd end up there. Boy was I wrong!
  9. Yes, Rafaela WAS playing bad defense early on. It did lead to losses (there's a game where he lost a ball in the sun when the glasses were sitting on his hat)! He is playing much better now!
  10. TBF, Buchholz probably just did have a boo-boo and missed 90 days. He did get IL'd for napping while holding his baby.
  11. Comments from ownership or just people in general?
  12. Meidroth is the 3rd best 2b in the AL per fWAR. He already has 5 HR this season. Only 4 Sox have 5 or more dingers and Contreras is the only IFer.
