  1. My childhood was Ned Martin with Bob Montgomery. DO and Remy was a top notch pairing though.
  2. I remember going to a Brockton Rox game and being very surprised at how cheap it was. I don't really remember Pawtucket being a super discount for food.
  3. I tried to stay away from the top of the prospect list. Rafaela has tantalizing tools. If he can learn a better approach, we'll see an improvement on some of his metrics like exit velocity. He shows a lot of power when he makes good contact, but he makes a lot of weak contact by chasing bad pitches just because he knows he can reach them. Mata just isn't a guy who has been able to stay healthy ever. I wonder if they keep him in the rotation or just push him to the pen. Yorke really needs a bounce back here. If he starts off hot and can put 2022 behind him, he'll be a bonafide top 100 guy again. Right now, his prospect standing has slipped. He also needs to stay healthy. Is Blaze's issue healthy? He played 120 last year. The concern for him was being able to hit velo. Bleis is young. He was even young for the complex league. Scouts were drooling over him when they watched him last season. He only had 2 k's his last 8 games.
  4. Grady wasn't a good manager. He had a good team and just sat back and let things happen around him. He was very slow to react.
  5. 2021: Whitlock Baddoo 2020: Megill 2019: Jordan Romano, but returned 2018: Nestor Cortes Jr, but returned 2017: Torrens Santander 2016: Ji-man Choi 2015: Odubel Herrera Delino Deshields Jr 2014: Kahnle 2013: Fields Pressly Inciarte, but returned 2012: Marwin Gonzalez 2011: nothing 2010: nothing 2009: Everth Cabrera O'Day Nova, but returned 2008: Evan Meek RA Dickey 2007: Soria Josh Hamilton Alfredo Simon 2006: Uggla 2005: Victorino 2004: Jose Bautista Jason Grilli 2003: Javier Lopez Victorino
  6. Oh no! Not that! Pete also had to walk back his initial tweets about how much of an embarrassment it was for Song to be headed to Phillies camp.
  7. Maybe that's just market rate and not a mark up?
  8. $53 for the Marlins. The cheapest was $36 for bleachers. The low A Mets are $10-12. We'll wait and get to see basically the same product with much better seats.
  9. You have a link for that?
  10. This is Alfaro's 2nd start, both at DH and he'll be playing 1B in the WBC. Seems likely that he will probably not be a C on the Opening Day roster.
  11. Joe Musgrove fractured his toe in the weight room.
  12. Tyler Glasnow will miss Opening Day. Gavin Lux was carted off the field yesterday. He will be out indefinitely.
  13. Guys I'm excited to follow this season: Roman Anthony - potential breakout candidate. Luis Perales - will he be able to go a full season? Hickey/Brannon/Scott - can one or two of the Catcher show that they can stick there long term? Cutter Coffey - athletic, defensive 3B with plus power, but will probably be down in FCL most of the year. Can Sox get him to his ceiling?
  14. Deeply unlikable person, but yes.
  15. And the price point of the tickets made it less likely I was going to take the kids on a school night. We'll just wait for the local Low A team to start their season.
  16. I'd go with lackluster before a tired Pedro.
  17. Are you as upset about Rick Reuschel not being in? He has a better case than Tiant.
  18. Grich 69.1 fWAR, 2008 G Lou 68.1 fWAR, 2390 G Grich was better. Lou just held on for an extra season. It's close enough where it's just personal preference. I tend to look at Jaffe's HOF JAWS list on bref and go through that as a reference point, FYI.
  19. I was trying to decide about buying tickets for tonight's game. Red Sox lineup versus the Marlins: 1. Allen LF 2. Casas 1B 3. Dalbec 3B 4. Tapia CF 5. Refsnyder RF 6. Alfaro DH 7. Wong C 8. Sogard 2B 9. Hamilton SS Kluber P Pass!
  20. Just because someone has done it a few times doesn't mean you should do it with the season on the line.
  21. Evans is a bigger omission than Tiant. The biggest omissions in baseball would be Grich and Dahlen.
  22. Then wouldn't the same argument work for the 9th inning? Why make the demarcation as "just one more inning, but not two"?
  23. It’s just a bad opinion. He only had 3 CG the whole year. That wasn’t going to be the 4th.
  24. DD would have just traded away Alvarez anyway.
