  1. He did also sign Ockimey.
  2. He WAS a good defender. There is concern that his arm is no longer fit for SS. This is not "well Xander has a bad arm too" but rather "if you put Story at SS, he may be much more likely to wind up on the DL/IL."
  3. More XBH per game, but a lower OPS+. Change of scenery, plus injury concerns, plus home/away splits could turn this signing ugly.
  4. He's the opposite of Desperate Dave.
  5. TalkSox's love for Trivino can't be overstated. Simps.
  6. I'm more concerned about Story's home/away splits though. I wouldn't have signed him. It's more than a 50/50 chance that this contract doesn't work in the Sox's favor.
  7. Maybe people haven't talked about it on here, but I've seen various reports concerning his health question marks.
  8. Hosmer 2021 fWAR: 0.0. He's signed through 2025.
  9. Price will be high since every other team has called them as well.
  10. According to NJ Advance Media, several scouts around the league believe that Story is better suited to play second base due to his diminished arm strength. Story has dealt with several elbow strains over the last few seasons, which is why a shift to second could help reduce the wear-and-tear on his arm. If his throwing arm is toast, maybe him getting to a ball Xander wouldn't is irrelevant.
  11. Shaw and Robles? What is Bloom trying to do? Field a AAA team? Well, yes.
  12. Yes, it seems like they are putting a little faith in Duran. May have growing pains this year.
  13. Visiting teams in NYC don’t have to be vaxxed, just home teams.
  14. All LHP bullpen.
  15. I think ST 2021 was similar for him.
  16. From MLB.com: Statistician and writer Henry Chadwick gets credit for inventing ERA in the mid-to-late 19th century. His thinking was that win-loss record simply didn't go far enough in determining the mark of a good pitcher.
  17. I’ve seen it listed as mid 19th century.
  18. Its origins is mid 19th century.
  19. Two SoCal guys: Trout and Betts Southeast: Acuna Northeast: Judge Midwest: Robert
  20. Fine with me. He was a dog before being traded to the Braves last year.
  21. They punted 2 years ago. Then seemingly punted last offseason. It’s no longer punting if it happens again.
  22. US 65% Canada 81%
  23. @JonHeyman After losing out on Freddie Freeman, Red Sox are taking a look at Trevor Story. One catch: he would likely have to play 2B as 2-time WS champ Xander Bogaerts is the SS. Other possible options for Story: Cards, Twins, Astros, more.
