    Maybe?

    See... I knew...

    Just a disturbing screen name right there. Gross. Glad we got the good version.

    It may be more difficult, but 1. it helps lux tax space which we are all so concerned about now 2. clears up a potential log jam 3. helps establish the future core of this team

    Maybe they start off Casas in a platoon. Dalbec could also give days off to JD and Devers. I think there are enough AB's to go around. JD may have to even play LF at some point this year.
  6. mvp 78
    If Casas is hitting 2.000, they should bench Devers if they have to in order to get Casas in the lineup.

    I'm sorry. My joke was a little too "inside" for you. I was just riffing on the "or not" being an inside joke that we keep alive. Whenever a new poster comes around and starts bickering with A700, they are often accused of being a former poster (Dutchy) who has been banned multiple times for being a dickbag on the forum and filling various users' inboxes with porn and gore. This kind of went away after 2016's influx of BDC users as all the new Dutchy suspects may have melted down A700's circuits.

    If he just can't develop that 3rd pitch, you then call him up and slot him in the pen. That probably wouldn't be until later in the season though. It could make more sense to bring up Seabold instead of Houck if the Sox really need a starter.
  9. mvp 78
    He still has lots of value going forward. I don't see JD here long term so popping Casas in a part time role for part of a season is no big deal. They could even deal off JD instead of Dalbec.

    I too like to dabble in hyperbole.
  11. mvp 78
    In...... Or am I?
  12. mvp 78
    We are legion.
  13. mvp 78
    I don't think they "give up" on him. I think he gets a mix of playing time from 1B, 3B and DH.
  14. mvp 78
    Oh fine. Whatever you say Imperial59/Dutchy... We know who you really are.
  15. mvp 78
    That sounds like something Dutchy would say. I think we've finally figured you out!
  16. mvp 78
    Dalbec's bb rate has been 11-15%. WMD's was 4-8%. They really aren't the same hitter. Dalbec walks more and has much more power. WMD had good power. Dalbec has elite power.
  17. mvp 78
    And I've always said how much I liked Adam Dunn. Dalbec will stick around for a while. I just think his future isn't as starting 1B.
  18. mvp 78
    Disagree.
  19. mvp 78
    Or not.
  20. mvp 78
    Replace with pitch clock instead!
  21. mvp 78
    If Casas is OPSing 950 on July 1, seems like he'd help the team more than Dalbec. So yea, his job is in jeopardy depending on Casas' development.
  22. mvp 78
    As I said above "His OBP will be ok, but his batting average will be closer to Mendoza than many old school fans would like."
  23. mvp 78
    It remains to be seen what they do with Wander Franco. It certainly looks like they messed around with service time the year they brought up Snell. Adames probably should have been ready opening day in 2018 too. Archer in 2013?
  24. mvp 78
    A fair question is: Why not start the season with a 6 man rotation of ERod/Eovaldi/Richards/Perez/Pivetta/Houck? Minimizes injury risk?
  25. mvp 78
    Which negativity? That Houck is probably a bullpen arm? That's what scouts have been saying since he was drafted.
