  1. Is swinging once every 20 at bats enough to keep them honest?
  2. He was there for 2 years. You may have forgotten his 2016 season as it was replacement level value.
  3. Should Chavis be allowed to play 1b in cowboy boots then?
  4. And then you'd complain about a cliff a few months later.
  5. Marrero would be fine.
  6. If he hits 860 on the first pitch, maybe he should swing more at the middle middle pitches he lets go by?
  7. You don't have to explain your one note position any more. I think Dombrowski was more concerned with firing John Farrell that day and that's fine by me.
  8. Stanton for Bogey/Travis/Groome? Sign me up yesterday. I can't imagine that would be an actual trade though.
  9. When a player has a negative offensive WAR, I don't think fan advice would be any worse than their current approach!
  10. Yes, Alex Cora now and forever!
  11. Is anyone actually interested in cleaning house tho? The changes I've advocated are replacing Moreland with JD Martinez and maybe a few pen arms or a bench guy.
  12. I'm not even sure where your goalposts were. Good day.
  13. Yup, he's short and maybe not athletic enough to play 2b. If Beni was in LF, my guess is Chavis would be out there during AFL. 1b is the quickest route to the majors in this organization right now.
  14. Would you have a problem if Cashman did the same thing?
  15. In 2017 it was. How's that career number tho?
  16. How so? He said no surgeries were scheduled at that time and probably was more focused on firing John Farrell than thinking about AAAA Robby Scott. Hanley and ERod were probably not scheduled or 100% determined at that point.
  17. If he goes down 0-1, his OBP tanks tho?
  18. Does anyone have the direct quote? I can't seem to find it.
  19. Or maybe the surgeries weren't scheduled until after his comments? Maybe players were still under assessment? I'm not sure Robby Scott counts as someone that needs to be mentioned if a reporter asks about offseason surgeries. Silverman seems to think that Dombrowski was being honest and that the extent of the injuries weren't known at the time. @MikeSilvermanBB I don't think he misled.
  20. Maybe? Probably? But the only thing I'm arguing for is to swing at middle middle pitches, which should be put in play more often than not. I don't want guys automatically giving up on the first pitch.
  21. How is that #1 prospect's arm?
  22. Xander was awful swinging at the first pitch this year, but has a career 962 OPS when doing so. Why not swing more? He has a career swing rate of 7%, while Pedroia is at 5%. Something was definitely wrong with Bogey this year.
  23. I'm not a huge Bogey fan either. I think most people on here have a perspective that Bogey needs to fix his approach, which I agree with. People on here tend to be less critical of gritty Pedroia tho.
  24. If he was suited to 2b, they'd have him practicing over there. Unfortunately, they see Chavis as a 1b since that's where he is playing in the AFL.
  25. The fact that people are using DD's comment about surgeries as some litmus test for his capabilities is astounding to me. Of all the things that don't matter, that comment is at the top of the list.
