  1. I wouldn't start him against a FB heavy guy like Schlittler. I'd have to think about the other games.
  2. The math works out I guess!
  3. Letting Devers and Bregman go was dumb. The Adley trade has not worked out so far.
  4. The 2026 version? No. I guess this assumes the Sox have no injuries and all the other teams get their same number of injuries? Doesn't seem fair for a projection either.
  5. Hull has a higher GB rate than Roman did at age 21. Maybe they can work on it over the winter.
  6. That's what happened when they nabbed Roman in the 2nd round too. He seemed like the guy with the highest ceiling.
  7. @drewski6 Owen Hull with a nice shoutout here:
  8. Beat Schlittler and lose the series and I think I'm ok.
  9. With expanded playoffs, our expectations should be that the Sox are in the playoffs MORE OFTEN and at least getting past the WC round MORE OFTEN. They should be a top 10 (really top 5) payroll every year. They should be winning a lot. I don't think the expectation is WS or bust.
  10. If Contreras is healthy and plays like he did earlier in the season, they could get through the AL. I'd be happy with the 33% chance or whatever against the Dodgers. It's a HR park and our hitters did ok there this season.
  11. What a wonderful use of your time.
  12. I'm not saying they are toast. I just would feel a little more confident if the offense hadn't flatlined in September.
  13. The numbers against pitchers throwing a hundo are frighteningly low for hitters.
  14. Playoff teams don't typically have the streaks that this team has had. This has been an abnormal season. I've already said numerous times that it is impossible to predict what this team will do next. However, I don't want to hear "well the 2026 team won 15 straight and got back into it" for the rest of my life. It's not a realistic expectation. I think only 4 teams in history have been as far under .500 as the Sox have been and made the playoffs.
  15. Well, thank you for the tone policing! I'll mind my manners going forward.
  16. There are a few guys that gravitate towards Willson. Adley is a good leader, but hasn't been here long enough.
  17. Played 3 months of horrible baseball. They are back to showing that offense again. Is it a surprise that people are a little worried? If they showed a little sign of life here, maybe people would have a sense of relief.
  18. Holding out hope for another historic run from this group seems like an unsafe bet.
  19. The Cubs scored 160 more runs this season than the Sox. It's one of the most potent offenses in baseball. Unfortunately, they also have one of the most impotent pitching staffs in baseball. Probably won't work out for them this postseason. What's up with that last 3 game sample size though? Why are you always using such small samples, but going after other posters endlessly for whatever sample they use? 🤔
  20. It works for MIL in the playoffs every year. Why not us?
  21. Yanks have almost twice the amount of runs in September as the Sox. Even if the Yanks are limited, the Sox should be even more limited. It will really depend on guys coming back from the IL and producing (Contreras, Rafaela) which isn't a safe bet.
