    Asuaje is the only guy that could have really helped this team. He seems like a better version of Lin/Marrero/Holt. I'd still rather have an elite player than a bunch of pretty good ones.
  2. mvp 78
    No here is something that definitely needs it's own thread..

    Barnes could earn a spot over the next 10 days.
  5. mvp 78
    Can't say I've seen enough of Duda to be for or against him.

    @jcmccaffrey If the Red Sox win and the Angels lose tonight, the Red Sox officially clinch a playoff spot Should read clinch a spot in the play in game that is not the real playoffs.

    Sale Pomeranz Porcello ERod Kimbrel Kelly Smith Price Workman Maddox Reed Scott Bench will be Leon, Davis, Holt and Nunez. However, I believe Marrero or Lin should be on the roster in place of Holt for defensive purposes.

    I wasn't yelling at you. I'm just the crazy homeless guy down the street yelling at whoever walks by. I agree with your original post. My first post was sarcastic, hence the Trump joke.

    Moreland is at 8 DRS. Hosmer is at -5 DRS. No thanks. Might as well just hand JD Martinez a 1B glove.

    Carson has been really impressive. I'm not sure anyone knew what we would get out of him this year. Wade Miley who?
  11. mvp 78
    I agree. Which is another reason HOLT SHOULDN'T BE ON THE ROSTER.

    Should have just signed Koji. He's been great. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=9227&position=P Oh... Well, they could have just signed the best reliever on the market that season! Joakim Soria? http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=6941&position=P Ugh... Ok, maybe Darren O'Day? He had a 1.52 ERA in 2015! http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=3321&position=P Um.... Tyler Clippard? Ryan Madson? Bastardo? I guess bullpens are just LOL random? Well, it seems like trading for Kimbrel was the right thing to do.

    You're obfuscating the whole story by calling anything aside from one play "tangental."
  14. mvp 78
    "Can contribute." Of course. "Is the reason." Probably not. Usually it takes more than one play to lose a game. If the O's had scored 2 runs that inning, it would have also meant Barnes let up a dinger or put a lot more runners on. Would that have been Devers' fault too? Is it Devers' fault that hitters 3-5 went 0 for 13 and left runners on? Is it Devers' fault that Pedey hit into a clutch GDP? Devers and Benny were the only two Sox to get on base more than once. Is it Devers' fault the rest of the offense sleepwalked through the game? Bad plays contribute to losses. Bad plays can also be covered up by good plays. Barnes picked up Devers by getting the final out. Devers has picked up many others this season by having the highest OPS than any other Sox player that played last night.

    But he cost us Margot, Asuaje, Guerra and Logan Allen and had a big contract! Bad deal!
  16. mvp 78
    If Hembree is on the roster, 2 other guys must have gotten injured.
  17. mvp 78
    Even if he doesn't pick it, he can't let it get by him and allow the extra base. Devers does need more defensive work. From all I've heard, he's putting the time in. Moreland on the other hand doesn't give me much confidence that he can pick anything. If your 1B can't ever pick something in the dirt, you might as well just play Hanley there.
  18. mvp 78
    It's very rarely "just one play" that causes a loss. But what about Bill Buckner? IT WASN'T BILL BUCKNER'S FAULT DAMNIT. THERE WAS A BUNCH OF OTHER s***** STUFF THAT HAPPENED TOO.
  19. mvp 78
    If Price isn't on the PS roster, it's because his arm isn't healthy or they're admitting that he's just not that good anymore.
  20. mvp 78
    There are no good 1B anymore. Sad!
  21. mvp 78
    He thinks his arm can pitch. He thinks he's worth his contract. Farrell should put him in high leverage situations down the stretch and make him earn it.
  22. mvp 78
    That has nothing to do with baseball and is a bad argument.
  23. mvp 78
    I'm glad you see Devers at 3b.
  24. mvp 78
    That run didn't score. Even if Jones scored, the game wouldn't be over and it wouldn't have cost the team.
  25. mvp 78
    Jones is a puss who could only succeed for a small market nothing team that should be contracted. Vaz would have put him in the ground.
