  1. Beni is taller than Betts. Betts is not 5'6". (per MLB)
  2. I feel like if you can manage it, an Andrew Benintendi extension makes a whole lot of sense right now. He’s coming off a career-worst season that was ended early with injury, so this is the lowest his value likely will ever be. I don’t know what’s wrong with him, but I also believe he will be better. Eventually. Get him signed, long-term and relatively cheaply while it’s still possible, and avoid the uncertainty in future arbitration salaries and buy out a few of his free agency years. Sox management probably have the best idea at what is going on with Beni this season. If they sign him to an extension, it means they really think this year was a fluke. Once Pedroia is off the books, they could hide a bad contract if Beni goes south anyway. It also is a fine balance between years and AAV. They shouldn't go crazy like an 8 year deal.
  3. You guys are thirsty for some catapult action, eh?
  4. I can only speak for Dec 2008 and onward. Anything else needs a Rosetta Stone.
  5. Get the catapult out at that point for Grady. Theo should've just launched him out of Yankee Stadium.
  6. You guys are really trolling me today.
  7. You don't think TalkSox posters couldn't collectively hoodwink an MLB GM?!?!?
  8. It worked well for Eduardo Rodriguez. He had the best season of his career.
  9. Maybe that's why Bloom let Graterol go back to the Dodgers? Didn't like his early release point?
  10. And his September splits are good too, so it's not like he's wearing down at the end of every season like clockwork.
  11. They only played 60 games, so the pitchers should be ready to go on 2/1/21.
  12. But that's like saying "Beckett couldn't pitch a whole season because of his annual blister issues that caused him to skip a day or two."
  13. Yes, that's basically putting up my "Dojji" signal.
  14. Let's check in on old friend Che Hsuan Lin! https://twitter.com/ElevenSportsTW/status/1317079636111548417 @ElevenSportsTW 2020/10/16...........MAGIC.................#LinCheHsuan #林哲瑄 Play a Magic play!!! @FubonGuardians #CPBL
  15. When was the last time he pitched 80% of the season? I think we already answered that.
  16. Don't you bring that evil back to this board...
  17. https://www.mlb.com/rays/news/rays-pitchers-unique-arm-angles Wonder if Bloom will try to mimic this approach that has lead the Rays to the 3rd best bullpen in MLB?
  18. K rate, WHIP, BB rate are all close to his regular season levels. The only change is an increase in HR/FB % and his LOB %. Still a little flukey? IDK.
  19. They traded the wrong guy for Kimbrel.
  20. c-h-o-k-e-r
  21. He's earned over $11M so far. I bet he takes his time looking for something else to do.
  22. Even if his contract is too high, it's a better value to keep him on staff (where you have a HUGE need) than to dump his contract for a poor performing offensive player and some lottery tickets. You only trade Eovaldi if you don't want to contend next year.
  23. It's all coming to plan. Re-sign Mitch and Pillar.
  24. If he's nontendered, he goes elsewhere.
  25. Eovaldi isn't a bad contract IMO.
