    Was the original trade Verdugo and Graterol? I thought the Sox balked at Graterol due to an injury and got Downs and Wong instead. Would Graterol have made the trade better? Graterol pitched well last year, but has been bad this year.

    Well actually, let me tell you why I won't have a nice day...

    How often do teams go wire to wire? I think we need to hope they can tread water and pick up steam once Schwarber is ready next week. If the losing streak continues, it may be a big issue though.

    The end of 2011 was a nightmare, but there was a shitload of bickering during 2012 between PG, Fred, SCM, you, UN? and a whole bunch of posters. That takes the cake IMO. Though my favorite day on here will always be posters freaking out over Theo's trip to go get AGon and Theo getting on the plane without a contract. The on again off again contract rumors were hilarious to follow because it was a roller coaster on here. I was stuck at the mall that day shopping for baby stuff and just remember how entertaining the board was.

    Mookie 2020 season and Qualifying Offer vs Verdugo for 5 seasons, plus Wong, plus Downs Last year, Mookie was a 3 fWAR player. In the past two seasons, Verdugo is already at an accumulated 2.9 fWAR and he has 3 more years to go. Would you rather a comp pick or Wong and Downs? I think the deal already seems very fair for the Sox. The Sox weren't going to re-sign him and all they were going to get after 2020 was a comp pick.

    Yes, we're talking about the WC play in game winners only. My assumption is that there is a slight disadvantage. So far, the scant evidence we have points to that. I believe this new playoff format isn't compatible to what we saw to the older system where the Sox were treated equally to the other postseason teams aside from homefield advantage.
  7. mvp 78
    That's the only data we can go on. You can't just say everything is a crapshoot and not be able to have any sort of backup for it. Right now, it appears that WC teams are less likely than division winners to make the WS.

    You would have loved it here in 2012.

    I'm not allowed to disagree at home so............. I get it out of my system here.
  10. mvp 78
    For sure.

    IDK, this season seems more like a Choose Your Own Adventure book. Call up Jarren Duran? turn to page 83 Do nothing at the deadline? turn to page 94 Trade for a 1b? turn to page 102 Send Casas to the Olympics? turn to page 76

    If it really was a crapshoot, we'd see more WC teams advancing further into the playoffs IMO.

    I don't know how you could say this. Did you see the attendance for the 2020 season? Despicable!
  14. mvp 78
    5-7 since calling up Duran.
  15. mvp 78
    No.

  17. mvp 78
    I disagree.
  18. mvp 78
    That's only because I stopped posting after the 3rd inning.
  19. mvp 78
    Jacko is a good poster. The only reason people thinks he's a troll is because he has a Yankees avatar.

    Unsure
  22. mvp 78

  23. mvp 78
    Schwarber took groundballs at 1b?!?!?
  24. mvp 78
    Holy s***! 1-2-3 first inning for Richards
