    Sox have failed to close out the past few series. Time for the brooms to come out.

    Slaten activated Moran optioned to AAA refsnyder activated Lowe to the paternity list

    Ceddanne’s bb rate is like half the league average.

    It may change once a postseason birth is more secure.

    Houck won't be able to pitch until '27.

    @Brock Beauchamp Noticing that the site is running very slow for me today. Had a few "page unresponsive" errors. Seems to have to do with the ads not loading quickly. There has also been an ad that will pop up on the bottom of the screen that I'll have to click out in order to click on anything in the site. Anyone else noticing this or is it just me? This is just a TalkSox issue for me.

    Rafaela saying "I was trying to be patient" would be the biggest lie of all time.
  8. mvp 78
    That's not the argument moon made though. He just said most wins since 2021. Not a huge bar to clear IMO.
  9. mvp 78
    Impossible to do.
  10. mvp 78
    Enns has a reverse split this season. vs RHB 665 vs LHB 1004 He had a reverse split in AAA too.
  11. mvp 78
    It depends on the position. Story gets almost as many combined putouts and assists per year as plate appearances. Duran gets about a third of the amount.
  12. mvp 78
    Rafaela: 3/27-6/27: 702 OPS 6/28-7/18: 1214 OPS 7/19-current: 491 OPS Cut up the numbers however you want. Aside from a three week stretch before the ASB, his numbers have been as expected or worse.

    They have contributed at times, but you don't want those players to be on the field 75% of the time. They are role players for a reason.
  14. mvp 78
    COL puts a dreadful product on the field and they average 29,779 every game. Tampa doesn't draw no matter how good they are. Angels average over 32k!
  15. mvp 78
    So this team should be better than .500 then? Great! Saying it's the best team since 2021 isn't exactly strong praise.
  16. mvp 78
    In a discussion to get Duran a day off, seems to make sense to do it against a lefty regardless if Refsnyder is back.
  17. mvp 78
    The greatest team in Sox history had a starting lineup that had 4 BELOW AVERAGE hitters in it (catcher, Moreland, Nunez, JBJ) and they still won a boat load of games.
  18. mvp 78
    The Big Three: Mayer, Anthony, Campbell (Red Sox basically trademarked this group with that moniker) If Bregman hadn't been injured, Mayer would not have been called up when he was. He was pushed too early IMO. He's still carrying high whiff and chase rates (especially against offspeed) with a horrible split against LHP.
  19. mvp 78
    Masa instead of Duran maybe? Duran has been awful vs LHP this year.
  20. mvp 78
    It's not the PR and padding of stats, but that promoting of YOUNG prospects to a level higher than normal makes the prospect models go crazy. 🤪 There's a 19 year old in AA? HUBBA HUBBA!
  21. mvp 78
    From 15-20, JBJ had a 101 OPS+. I'd rather him have a JBJ/Kiermaier track than a Kevin Pillar track. When he provides defensive value, there will always be a spot for him. Not every player needs to be an All Star to start on this team.
  22. mvp 78
    I don't know if I agree with that. Players like Romy, Hamilton, Wong don't have career numbers that are much better than Rafaela. Rafaela succeeds in ways those players can't even though he infuriates me by swinging at very first pitch and can't lay off sliders 3 feet outside. The problem isn't that the players are struggling, but that the Sox have had to rely heavily on parttime players to play fulltime roles. They were lucky to get great performances out of Romy and Rafaela when they were going hot. Just don't expect that to be the norm!
  23. mvp 78
    Sox fan erasure??? I would never.
  24. mvp 78
    Just to be a little doom and gloom. I like the focus on arms in the org. However, there has been a huge uptick in TJS and other injuries just this season. This is probably due to the pressure of adding velo by the org. We've also seen two of the three highly prized prospects get pushed too quickly to MLB and not have a great first run. The offensive talent behind the big three is really mediocre to poor. Is this really a sustainable model? If not, they better win one in the next 3-4 years.
  25. mvp 78
    It's the equivalent of clapping for Tinkerbell.
