  1. Need about 200 AB's before they are moved up (reduces the SSS factor and allows clubs to see him for a second series). He's at 158 right now. I think a call up in early June makes sense.
  2. @redsoxstats 114.4 mph on that Devers home run, the Red Sox hardest hit ball since last August.
  3. @PeteAbe 3rd most runs (12), 2nd most hits (16) of the season for the Red Sox today.
  4. How about that bum Matt Barnes? He's been horrible this year, right SCM? https://www.fangraphs.com/statsd.aspx?playerid=12863&position=P&gds=&gde=
  5. I just don't see them straight up benching JBJ long term. They don't have decent options on the bench unless they really like JD in the OF. No matter what, JBJ's still going to start a ton of games and be given the opportunity to turn it around. He does still have an option remaining if they want to give him a breather for a few weeks to work on his swing.
  6. Lineups out for today's game. @guerinaustin #RedSox at Toronto: Benintendi LF, Betts RF, Moreland 1B, Bogaerts SS, Devers 3B, Chavis 2B, Pearce DH, Bradley CF, León C, Price P
  7. It's not my turn. It's SPLENDIDSPLINTER's.
  8. You're just mad because you're a POLLYANNA.
  9. Sure CHRISTopher Sale shares letters with CV, but Leon spelled backwards is NOEL. That's a bigger importance IMO.
  10. He was f***ing glorious.
  11. Options Remaining: 1 (2013, 2014) SoxProspects shows him having one. That's surprising.
  12. Leon is not a weak spot.
  13. Sox will need to pick between the two of them IMO. I think they go with Pedroia as they don't want to the potential public backlash (even though I think Holt does much more for the community and is a good "clubhouse guy"). Worst case scenario is they DFA Holt to keep Pedroia on the roster, another team claims Holt and Pedroia's injury is so severe that he has to hit the IL for good. Personally, I'd just nudge Pedroia out the door as I don't believe he has any value left.
  14. It was an ok year, I guess.
  15. It's ok to like players from another team. That's something that has always been around and isn't just because of the internet. When I was younger, there were larger than life characters like Michael Jordan and Bo Jackson. I don't care that you like Correa and Jeter, just leave it out of the gamethreads where people are overly emotional.
  16. Holt is being sacrificed at the altar of Pedroia. We'll see if it'll work for this year.
  17. I thought notin was referring to 98 with the "6 outs" comment.
  18. You do realize that everything I post is lighthearted too, right? The last time I took this place seriously was when we were raided by BDC and we had to cull the bad accounts.
  19. He started off slow last year too. He really started to hit his stride the end of last May. He's fine. I don't think it's a problem yet. It's weird that his noticeably slower this year though. That does really impact his long term value unless he can boost the power numbers. The k rate is at a career high right now too.
  20. Well, it was my game thread, so I don't care what Max thinks about it. Just in the future, don't cheer for the other team if it's my thread. I know you were upset enough about a baby's mojo the other day, so I thought you took it a little seriously. Oh well.
  21. Gordon wasn't a strictly 1 inning guy like Kimbrel either. They had some ok arms in that pen though that could have pitched in the 8th (Swindell, Corsi, Lowe). Lowe had pitched 1 2/3's clean that day and looked pretty good from what I remember.
  22. He was no Jim Corsi, that's for sure.
  23. https://www.baseball-reference.com/awards/awards_1963.shtml#all_AL_MVP_voting Monster was pretty good in the early 60's, but it was a different game back then.
  24. For one year, Uehara was the greatest closer this team has ever had. Foulke has 2004, but Uehara's 2013 eclipses that easily. Gordon had a good run in 98 and they should have tried to keep him around. He was definitely great for the Yankees for a few years. We could have used him in 2003.
