  1. 31% k rate in AAA isn't great... FWIW, Duran is starting to catch up to him OPS wise. Duran is at 1.015 with Cordero cooling down to 1.111. What I would do is call up Cordero and give him 2 weeks to see if he can rebound at all. If he can't, just DFA him off the 40 man roster. At that point, I'd call up Duran.
  2. Ball wasn't taken so high because of his dominant arm. He was taken high because of his athleticism and the Sox felt they could develop him into something. Leiter and Rocker already have the arms to move through the system barring injury.
  3. Fractured rib. He may be out for a while.
  4. Oswalt went on a LOA due to tornados near his home in MS. Somewhere along the way, he hurt his back and after coming back from his leave he was never the same pitcher.
  5. What's the issue with years of service if guys like Guerra/Allen/Asuaje aren't providing meaningful contributions to an MLB organization?
  6. @redsoxstats A very positive Duran indicator is he's been able to get his strikeouts under control while still hitting for power. First 10 games: 45 plate appearances 31% strikeout .333 Isolated Power Next 22 games: 110 plate appearances 20% strikeouts .347 Isolated Power
  7. I think the way the rule was enforced against Max the other night was embarrassing for the league.
  8. I've heard that this year there is a significant gap in talent from AAA to MLB. Maybe due to excessive injuries post COVID?
  9. It has been 0 Days since our last haunting
  10. Javy Guerra - 60 Day IL elbow Logan Allen - ERA/FIP above 9 Margot - 5.8 fWAR since the trade Asuaje - 641 career MLB OPS, has bounced around between KBO and AAA past few years Kimbrel - 6.4 fWAR for BOS Red Sox got the better of the deal. Maybe it was a little bit of an overpay, but it definitely didn't come back to bite them.
  11. He was getting hotter, but going 0-8 with a BB and 7 K really puts a damper on that. It's just not a pretty picture right now.
  12. I wonder if there has been a significant change in the baseball since the last time Pedro pitched.
  13. @IanCundall Solid start for Red Sox RHP Josh Winckowski in Portland. Final line: 5IP, 7H (1HR), 3ER, 0BB, 9K. FB was 92-94 T96. Best pitch was SL at 82-86. 7/9 strikeouts were with SL. Showed advanced feel & confidence, throwing it in any count, to both RHH/LHH. Also showed a firm CH 87-91. https://twitter.com/redsoxstats/status/1408059641607593991
  14. @SoxNotes Congratulations to Adam Ottavino, who reached 10 years of MLB service time today. In 495 career outings, he has recorded a 3.49 ERA with 10.46 strikeouts per 9.0 innings. Last 27 games: 1.78 ERA, .151 opponent AVG, 1.11 WHIP, 10.66 SO/9.0 IP
  15. Per sportrac: Paid $8.5M cash ($10M lux tax due to $1.5M buyout for 2022). Club option for $10M in 2022.
  16. I've read that it was originally scored correctly as was immediately shown on MLB.com. However, some are pointing to a manual change just prior to the league week ending. Was Yahoo hacked? Was it an inside job by someone who needed that score adjusted? IDK, but I'm leaning towards this not being an innocent mistake.
  17. Yes, I'm glad that Angel Hernandez is chairing the Yahoo Fantasy Board of Directors.
  18. I'm fine with whatever. I'm annoyed by it, but this is all just for fun. If I miss out on the playoffs by half of a game, I can put more blame on some of the dumber decisions I've made.
  19. More focus on NFTs and crypto than really fixing the game.
  20. Seems like a better fix.
  21. I believe he had a MiLB deal with an escalation clause concerning health.
  22. He’s been on the IL for years.
