  1. Dewey should be in. At his peak, Jim Rice was one of the top 2-3 players in the game. Evans never reached those heights, but was solid for a long time.
  2. Ozzie Smith: bWAR 76.9, WAA 42, 15 ASG Vizquel: bWAR 45.6, WAA 5.3, 3 ASG Yeah, Smith is in. Those two are NOT comparable.
  3. Nomar, Rollins, Tejada, Tony Fernandez all belong in the HOF before Vizquel.
  4. DH is an easy hole to fill.
  5. If you are unloading him, it's not to win now.
  6. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/a-walk-off-letdown/ Ron Kulpa has actually already conceded that he should have called Conforto out on strikes.
  7. Jones and Rolen should get in. Vizquel should not.
  8. Devers always starts off slow defensively and offensively. Just need to get through April and he'll turn it around.
  9. JD is a big reason they are getting the #4 pick in the draft this season and a big reason they are now in first damn place. Legend.
  10. I'm just not seeing much value in Marwin. He can play a bunch of positions, but not very well. He's a switch hitter, but not all that great.
  11. @TomCaron Rodriguez' velo is down here in the early going. Has only topped 93 mph on four of his 25 pitches. Not throwing his four-seamer very often. Something to keep an eye on as he works his way back after 18 months away from regular-season games.
  12. PeteAbe Marwin Gonzalez had one game at shortstop since 2018 before starting there today. Scouts who followed the Sox in spring training wondered if they had a legit backup shortstop. The answer is Xander should play 161 games this year.
  13. aka Hasn't really pitched in 12 months, probably should have sent him to extended spring training. Seems like he's getting much more of the plate than he usually does.
  14. If he throws another 26 pitches next inning, he won't be lasting long at all.
  15. Devers sucks at 3b so hard. https://twitter.com/redsoxstats/status/1380241241451941888
  16. ERod doesn't seem to be ready for prime time.
  17. Have they mentioned a pitch count for ERod? Probably doesn't go past 80?
  18. If Arroyo can only play 2b and 3b, is he any more valuable than Chavis?
  19. Gameday doesn't believe ball 3 was close to being a ball.
  20. As of 4/8: Franchy - 833 OPS, 4 Hits, 2 XBH, 0 BB, 5 K Beni - 451 OPS, 4 hits, 0 XBH, 2 BB, 5 K (nearly 2x as many PA as Franchy)
  21. I still contend that the biggest problem is umpires missing the outside part of the plate. To me, that's an equipment issue. If they had the equipment from back in the 80's, they could stand directly behind the catcher and see the outside of the plate. Currently, they set up to the side (do to their reduced equipment) and can't see the outside part of the plate.
  22. And this guy: @UmpireAuditor Ted Barrett ended the night with 23 missed calls. In the two games he's covered this season, he's missed a total of 46 calls, the most in the league.
  23. Just fire this guy: @UmpireAuditor Yesterday, Umpire Angel Hernandez was responsible for the worst called game of the season so far. He missed 24 calls with a correct call percentage of only 83.2%.
