  1. I'd rather bring in a reliever with empty bases than continue to try to sneak one more out from a starter's arm.
  2. How did Samaniego look? He hasn't pitched above AA before but some believe he'll be up in BOS soon.
  3. It's a lineup I presented before. How about with Masa as DH? Anthony Masa Contreras Abreu Story Duran Durbin Mayer Wong
  4. In this analogy, is that leading you towards being anti-Cora or heading away from being anti-Cora?
  5. Rafaela is better as a bottom of the order guy. Durbin maybe could be a #2 at some point as he didn't k much last year, but has zero power. Duran k's about as much as Story and I don't think you want Anthony and Duran going back to back. The only big RHB is Contreras. In order to protect Anthony and not have anyone pitch around him: Duran Durbin Anthony Contreras Abreu Story Mayer Narvaez Rafaela
  6. Why wait until a 3-2 count to go? https://www.mlb.com/reds/video/tony-santillan-foul-to-willson-contreras-o18ghb
  7. Their record would be the same, but they would look worse to your boy Pythagoras.
  8. And now there will be a bunch of frustrating low scoring games where the Sox can't plate runners and lose.
  9. Yeah, I think we were already well aware that Suarez could hit a 92 mph middle/middle 4 seamer 450'. It's up to the pitcher to not throw that dumb pitch.
  10. I would have just benched him for not knowing how to properly use the ABS system.
  11. They didn't settle. They found guys that fit their fair market! 😎
  12. The k problem is why I don't like Story at #2. I don't have a problem with Roman at #1, but he needs someone better behind him.
  13. Neto was a pipe dream. If they traded Abreu for Paredes, the Sox would have done even worse this series. We don't know the downstream effects are of trading for Marte. No Ranger? No Early (included in trade)?
  14. He's useless on the bench; a slow, slap hitter who doesn't field well.
  15. But Yoshida is one of the greatest OFers in the world? He started for Japan! Why don't we want him on this team?
  16. Ah, but they'll get blown out later on in the season, so it'll all work out. That's how we know Pythagoras W/L works!!!
  17. Overreactions are just what people do. Like you said "every year." My overreaction: I will say that I'm a little annoyed that the Sox didn't seem to have a plan in how to handle ABS and still look clueless in extras. Narvaez's sacrifice bunt was done on his own and not called by the coaching staff. Huh? Jarren Duran getting caught on 1b. This team just plays dumb baseball and they can't do that if they are going to be in a lot of low scoring games. The further away we get from 2018, the less faith I have in the coaching.
  18. Ward: 3 G 3 SB
  19. This was the risk of going with a pitching and defensive first lineup. Runs would be at a premium and the Sox may lose a lot of close games.
  20. He's never thrown more than 120 IP in a year before. Having him throw 100 pitches in March is a recipe for disaster for Early if you want him pitching down the stretch.
  21. On Weissert, if you have Suarez down 0-2, why put a ball on a tee for him? Weissert has a sweeper and Suarez loves to k. Just throw something out of the zone and get him to chase!
  22. Let's see what these guys look at on Memorial Day.
