  1. There are more people on this site saying it's a good deal than I've seen anywhere else. Even the SoxProspects guys think the deal was unnecessary.
  2. When Mayer goes down with a hamstring injury in August in WOO: fire Breslow, he never would have been injured if he was in Boston!
  3. No, you have it wrong. Solomon wanted it split right at the belly. The moms wanted it split right down the sternum. Solomon, being so wise, realized that the first half of the season is 81 games, not 95 and decided the matter was all too silly and just had the moms race an anthropomorphized manna to see who (or what) would win the baby.
  4. It's an arbitrary marker that makes no sense in terms of Devers's production when you look at the game logs.
  5. You wanted half a season. I gave you half a season. Split it down the middle like Solomon's baby. Not good enough?
  6. That doesn't even make any sense, Devon. You link to a half baked article and then want to call me CHB? Ok? I've been called worse on here!
  7. Ok, Devon.
  8. Well, if you want HALF of a season. 1st half of his PA's (300): 913 OPS 2nd half of is PA's (301): 829 OPS
  9. I know what you're up to Devon Platana and I'm sick of it. 😡
  10. September was really bad and he should have sat out. The beginning of the season was scary. He was struggling a little bit after the STL series, but his body language wasn't the concerning type we've seen like in September or March/early April. I think he's feeling better and believes he can get back to it.
  11. Why are you arbitrarily picking the ASB? It makes no sense. Use the incident that actually caused the decrease in production and when it forced him to miss three straight games at the end of AUG. You are saying "he's been bad since the ASB" but I have proven otherwise. I'm sure you could work a time period to get the OPS to be dead on if you wanted!
  12. Story: leads BOS in HR 2nd BOS in SB (0 CS) leads BOS in thin ice %
  13. 7/19-8/26: 359/522 8/30-9/20: 262/178 3/27-4/27: 350/396 Not seeing the similarities TBH
  14. 😶 I did some research and the Chicago Manual of Style changed how they treat this in 2010. Why would they do this and not let me know?
  15. Yuck! Red Sox are now 6-7 against teams above .500. SEA is the only AL team with a winning record against teams above .500. 148 runs for the Sox is 2nd in the AL.
  16. Because of his numbers in September after his shoulder was completely toast. He was fine for the entirety of July and early Aug.
  17. When he needed to take a break due to his shoulder injury? 7/19-8/5 1055 OPS 7/19-8/26(before 3 game injury break to rest shoulder) 881 OPS
  18. And I'm not even sure how many of the posts are even "outbursts." When I'm participating, I'm not imagining other posters getting worked up to the point where they are actually believe "Devers SUCKS" and are deeply emotional about it. More likely they are just annoyed he has struck out again and are hopeful that he can pull out of it in the next at bat and were just expressing frustration at that one point in time. Most posters like all the players and want them to do well. It's fine if they vent their frustrations during the game, because that's typical fan behavior. Lose? They stink! Win? They're great! Strike out? Bad! Home run? Good! That's just the nature of watching baseball. No reason to overanalyze the game threads, but people LOVE to do it.
  19. I don't think they'd have to unload that much to trade him. Just eat half the contract and you can find a taker most likely. His contract is bad, but there are way worse contracts in baseball. He may not even be top 10.
  20. Yeah, that's how it always works in the game threads. You don't have to take those posts literally. I probably posted DFA Sale at some point in the same way my grandpa would just get annoyed at the tv and yell "you bums." It's not that serious.
  21. Clarke just shouldn't be in Low A. His stuff is too overpowering for that level and I'm not sure he can learn anything there. Aita's last 3 starts weren't as dominant as the first one, we'll see what the rest of his season looks like. He should get to AAA without a problem considering his pitch mix and spin rate. I don't know if they can turn Drohan into a starter again, but if he can be a reliever that goes 2 innings like Whitlock it has a ton of value. I haven't actually watched him pitch yet, so all I have seen are clips and the stats.
  22. Newcomb pitched like a fill-in. Hard to get too excited over his performance when you look at his numbers and the stuff behind his numbers. If Gio can't get to that level, DFA.
  23. Grissom is a bad MIFer. That doesn't mean he can't play elsewhere. He's probably athletic enough for COF/1B maybe 3B. Just because a guy is terrible at SS doesn't mean he's a DH.
  24. That's not what those words mean.
