  1. I'm not sure Bloom goes over the money with Cora or even needs to.
  2. 3 games into a season, I'm not ready to dump Cora or Bloom just yet. They would need to have a 2020 redux for me to jump off the ship this year. Even a mediocre 2019 follow up would be annoying, but not shake my trust.
  3. Why would Cora approve a raise?
  4. He signed for 2/8M. He's being paid 3.5 in cash in 22 and 23 with a 1M buyout in 24. He has a club option for 4M in 24. I don't know what Max is getting at. His luxury tax salary is 4M, so 4M paid at 3.5 instead of 3.5M paid at 3?
  5. https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/pirates/2022/04/10/pirates-ticket-sales-revenue-player-investment-mlb-payroll-special-report/stories/202204100006 Maybe George Will can have a soliloquy about the ever expanding pockets of the Pirates owner.
  6. https://twitter.com/redsoxstats/status/1513514290325725190 Crawford from last night. His stuff is really playing up in the pen. He could be an impact arm going forward.
  7. I think they have a lot of older starters and the expectation is that one or two of them don't make it across the line. When that happens, they'll have a stretched out Whitlock ready to takeover. I don't think they see him as a bulk reliever type. They extended him because he will be given the opportunity to start. Right now, it's still early in the season and they are trying to see where everyone shakes out. There's always a lot of moving parts on a pitching squad this early in the season.
  8. I mean, why wouldn't there be consideration? They are stretching him out for multiple innings. They have him in a piggy back role with Hill. They have said that they see him as a starter.
  9. https://twitter.com/redsoxstats/status/1513504317025701898 Diekman from last night.
  10. In a short stint, he could overpower guys and not have to be too accurate. If Joe Kelly can find success in the pen with his wildness, I think Houck would be just fine.
  11. Just move the decimal over one place and it's a one to one deal. That's just one digit. No biggy.
  12. We've discussed before that he just has terrible career AUG numbers. For some reason, he falls apart every August.
  13. I've heard possible IL stint.
  14. We sorely miss VA at times like this.
  15. I mean, just look at his MLB numbers from the 2nd half last year. He seems to be a AAAA guy.
  16. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.fcgi?id=colege01&year=Career&t=p Prior to today: 14 regular season games against the Sox: 15 HR, 132 tOPS+, 764 OPS Postseason vs Sox: 2G, 8 IP, 7 ER
  17. I see. Got it. I agree with that then.
  18. The numbers back up that he does poorly against the Sox.
  19. @nyyankeesstats Anthony Rizzo just reached base via hit by pitch for the 179th time in his career. That passes Andres Galarraga and moves him into 9th place for most HBP by a player in the Modern Era (Since 1900). Or he just stands over the plate.
  20. XandEr not earning that 30M per.
  21. What little league has a RFer that would get to that ball and get it to the C before Stanton scores?
  22. Gall0 and DalbeK competing to see who can get to 300 k's first this year.
  23. Story might want to wait for a strike at some point.
