  1. You'll like Brannon if you believe Bobby Dalbec still deserves a shot.
  2. I'd be happier with Gasper if I felt he could play a little 2b and LF too.
  3. I like him. He doesn't get along with Duran, reportedly.
  4. He really doesn't like him.
  5. Yes, Manny pulled the ball more than Tatis does and hit more flyballs.
  6. It's also all about the process to Breslow as well. He may keep doing the same thing over and over because he believes his process is right.
  7. Arias is not a middle of the order bat. He'll start off in the bottom 3.
  8. Would he learn to pull the ball?

    DH

    Sox were 11th in OBP and were only 23rd in runs. OBP is fickle when looking at runs. SLG may be a better indicator as part of its calc uses OBP.
  10. I agree. I was just trying to show that this isn't some brand new thing.

    DH

    This problem goes back to the initial signing of Masa. Good player, bad fit for DH. Until he's off the roster, they won't have the stomach to sign another fulltime DH.
  12. I'm sure there are worse GM's out there. He has been a mixed bag. Some trades have been bad, some good. That really seems par for the course. The issue is that he did a wholesale turnover of the 40 man roster so what we see now has his fingerprints all over it. Every player on the roster is because of a move, or lack thereof, that Breslow made.
  13. I agree that Crochet shouldn't have been on the roster. The roster decisions were "unique" for sure. The injuries piled up at the end and the team didn't have an answer for how to put a full squad on the field that could actually compete. 26 started off like crap and ended like it too. They would have been better off not going 32-5 and selling off at the deadline with the looming lockout. This offseason is going to be a weird one and not easy for Breslow to navigate with a lot of decisions for him to make.
  14. Schilling was an analytical geek FWIW.
  15. They said they didn't want to go to Crochet unless it was a clean inning. Maybe they should have gone to Whitlock, the second best RP out there? He was garbage that game too.
  16. They traded for a prospect who Braves scouts were saying "yeah, maybe he can play 2b, but he's not a SS." I think they could have found someone a little bit better TBH.
  17. Those guys did keep the team afloat for a lot of the summer.
  18. I don't think anyone is untradeable. Tolle would be the hardest to give up though.
  19. They assembled, developed, drafted what became the WS teams because of their analytics. That you are arguing it is pretty silly in retrospect.
  20. Why do you think they went after Kevin Millar and prevented him from going to Japan? His good looks?
  21. He was great. Fans complained before the year that he wasn't good enough to be a #2. I argued otherwise.
  22. That's clearly the decision Breslow made prior to the series even starting. Not sure why Tracy is getting flack for it? Here's how Kevin Cash handled EVERY Blake Snell postseason start in TB:
  23. Were you able to read my second sentence or no?
