Regularly using relievers as starters
mvp 78 replied to Maxbialystock's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
But Wade Davis tho! He should be in the HOF just because of those WS runs! -
Still too late for me. I'll be in bed by then.
-
To add to the corner IF conversation, Pedro Castellanos in Salem is on a pretty good tear in August.
-
Dalbec's fielding is supposed to be "above average". Chavis is average to below average. Would make sense that Dalbec stays at 3b and Chavis is at 1b next year. I'm interested in what an Ockimey/Travis platoon would look like too.

Andruw Jones was way better. It's not close.
-
I'd say that you don't know how to count weeks. Through June 15th, he was OPSing 569. 11 weeks.

Wade Davis 2014 Postseason: 12 Games, 14.1 Innings Keith Foulke 2004 Postseason: 11 Games, 14 Innings C'mon man... -
When they win tonight, they'll have 90 wins ON AUGUST 23RD. Let's continue on our ranting about how horrible everything is tho! Let's make this gamethread a real humdinger!
-
He’s going to finish the year strong.
-
Long term, I don’t think he’s a decent starter. Just need to get to Oct this year.
-
Sox will rebound too.

You said “Sure, we'd all like to have a CF who plays defense like Bradley and hits like Smith but those guys aren't "a dime a dozen'.” It’s clearly not the same thing as “a guy with JBJ’s WAR. I’m a jerk to you because you constantly whine and complain that nobody listens to you, but you can’t be bothered to listen to anyone else. It’s fine, you don’t have to worry about me responding to you anymore.
-
I never once said a guy with Mallex oWAR and JBJ dWAR is dime a dozen. Your arguments are just s***. You always bitch and moan about other posters not listening to the other side without ever actually listening yourself.
-
His WAR is about the same as Mallex Smith's over the past 2 years.
-
Pffft... It should obviously be called the Hartford Heroin and the logo would be a skinny New England douchebag itching himself.
-
You don't hold onto a guy like JBJ, because they are almost dime a dozen these days.

https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/red-sox/sale-suffering-bursitis-puts-team-first-recovery “He’s dealing with a little bit of bursitis in that shoulder, so best way to knock that out is rest, which is exactly what he’s doing,” Red Sox president and CEO Sam Kennedy said on WEEI’s Kirk and Callahan show on Wednesday morning. “And I know it’s hurting him to be on the bench. This guy is, for those of you who don’t know him or haven’t seen him, he’s the ultimate competitor. He’s pissed off that he’s not in the stating rotation right now.”

OPS in AA this year: Dalbec 1.019 Chavis .900 Dalbec has 50 less AB's than Chavis, but only one less XBH. The big concern is how much Dalbec k's, but if he can make contact at the higher level, maybe he has a better ceiling.
-
When the teams never interact except during the All Star Game and the WS, it greatly increases the aura around those games. Fans don't watch the WS as much anymore. This could help to change that. Make it a marquee event again.
-
That's why it's so much easier to just add a pitch clock.
-
You can't. The tv deals would crater (even though I think they will eventually anyway). You need to keep the ads, but increase the pace of play.
-
The worst.
-
Watching pitchers hit is embarrassing. Just get rid of it.
-
Interleague has nothing to do with pacing. It has everything to do with fixing baseball. When teams play each other all year, the All Star Game and the World Series lose some of their aura.

A million times this...
