  1. Because it's kinda ridiculous to say "I don't care what the Advanced Stats say, he sucks" when the Advanced Stats agree with your position. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  2. Doesn't mean you couldn't find a cheaper alternative that would provide similar production and better leadership.
  3. If he needs some creative accounting about why he should get more money, I'm his man! But as Abraham Lincoln once said "ball don't lie."
  4. But Advanced Stats don't say that? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  5. Bogey has been fine this year. He's playing to what I expect out of him. He's not a superstar, he's just a solid major leaguer. The best part is that he probably won't cost $20/yr going forward.
  6. Hard to imagine Pedey getting 4/56 contract on the open market after having a negative offensive WAR season at 34. Wow, such discount!
  7. Advanced stats don't like Benintendi's defense either. Do I still have to blow you?
  8. Rodriguez vs Garcia
  9. Owens has one more option year. He'll stick around.
  10. Driving in more runs keeps us in more games, even if the pitching isn't "ticking." I think a lot of people would be more confident in this team if the rotation included 2015 Price, rather than the broken down version. ERod (health), Porcello (pitch location) and Fister are huge question marks.
  11. Nope. He just throws a really heavy sinker.
  12. I thought the Sox were in "win now" mode?
  13. Hanley trying to stretch everything into a double is dumb as his speed isn't a strength. However, if X, Mookie, JBJ and Benny are given the green light to run crazy, I'm ok with it.
  14. I think my issue is more with the constant mental lapses than a guy getting thrown out by 3 feet. They noted on the telecast last night that Amaro is in charge of baserunning practice and procedures. I think they can do better at 1b next year.
  15. If Cozart is cheap, it would make a little sense. You'd have a glove first guy at SS and would hope the increased defense offsets the drop in offensive production. He's basically Stephen Drew. If the Sox could get some value out of X in a trade (some minor league arms), it could be a smart move.
  16. There's good aggressiveness and then there's dumb "we don't know how to run the bases" aggressiveness. Was JBJ's blunder due to aggressiveness or due to bad coaching? How about Benny not being able to tag at 2nd on the fly to RF? Boggs called him out on it and was right to do so. That wasn't aggressive? It seems more like "haphazard" running of the bases rather than aggressive running of the bases.
  17. Who would be the replacement? Lin? Marrero?
  18. Someone light the YZ beacon!
  19. Hanley has a lengthy injury history. I bet Travis and Chavis both get a good opportunity next year.
  20. No game tomorrow. WTF, schedule makers?
  21. Ho hum, another win...
  22. Is there a 7 run rule for passed balls?
