    No McAdam's first time either. They all need their clicks now.

    He's probably not 5th starter material in a perfect world, but he's probably going to get his shot at some point. I don't believe his contract includes an opt out.

    What we are talking about are your projections which include the Sox doing worse defensively. Then you follow up with a post that says "but last year's DRS blah blah blah" which is most certainly NOT the current year projections from your initial post. Those are two completely different topics IMO. I believe in ranking defense after it happens. The projections are just for fun.

    Sean Newcomb: 3 GS, 4 G, 9.2 IP, 5 H, 3 BB, 10 K, 0.833 WHIP, 0.94 ERA 🫠

    Much ado about nothing, I guess! I'm shocked that Devers isn't absolutely stewing over 3B!!!! 😎

    Not according the FanGraphs and the projections that harmony keeps posting without regard for what they actually mean!

    And again, when you dig into the PROJECTIONS, you see that Wilyer had higher DRS last season than Riley Greene (DET first team I looked at), but is projected to have half the Fld in '25... The projection for Duran also shows a dramatic defensive regression for Jarren Duran. If you are going to talk about the PROJECTIONS that you posted and why the Sox are ranked low, talking about the '24 numbers is kind of useless unless you're disregarding your earlier post.

    So good so good so good!!!

    Yes, because of their poor fielding. When we are discussing LINEUP, it is purely offensive potential and ignores defense.

    That's a pretty high pacing for Casas. If he played a full 162 game season in '23, he would have only reached 616 PA's. Last year, his PA's prorate to 625 over 162.

    I know, that's why I posted the seldom used version which was part of the reason the unabomber was even found.

    I chose the word "significant" intentionally. I opted to not use "high."

    McCarver yelling "that ball wasn't even close" when Clemens throws up and in on Manny the previous season. Those knuckleheads were so anti-Red Sox that I'm glad they had front row seats to see the Sox beat their Cards in the WS.

    Sorry, too many ding-a-lings ran her off!

    If Bregman and Devers were swapped in the order it wouldn't bother me in the least. Maybe they think Devers provides better protection to Duran? IDK.
  19. mvp 78
    The theory (I don't feel like binging the articles) is that the #3 hitter comes up the most amount of times with 2 outs and no runner on than any other person in the order making it a less valuable position. You should want your best hitters hitting 1, 2, 4 and 5 I believe. 2 will also have more PA's in the year than the #4 hitter. If we believe Duran will be right in front of Devers at 1 and have a decent OBP, having Devers right after him isn't a bad idea. I'd want my best hitters getting as many PA's in the season as possible.

    From FanGraphs today: One way to tell the difference between a baseball fan who has a life and a true sicko is whether they have strong opinions on players who sign minor league contracts and attend spring training on a non-roster invite. So congratulations to all of us sickos who have opinions on Michael Fulmer, Robert Stock, et al.

    Fitts and Priester have the inside track and may not give it up.

    The highlights were certainly fun to see.
