  1. There's been handwringing about his k rate, but I'm not sure it's that much different than what Wong's was in AAA (27.9% in 21, 22.5% in 22). He has a much better bb rate than Wong did in AAA too.
  2. Gio thought he could pitch in Sept. Whitlock is more likely to be not ready for April. If going by odds: Gio: 85% Opening Day (barring other injury) Whitlock: 50% Opening Day, likely is just put on 15 day IL once or twice to start the season
  3. I think the innings limit would be managed by him just not going long in games down the stretch if they are out of it. Is a 6 man rotation on the table?
  4. Sure, they can have Bleis and Winckowski for him.
  5. I mean, that's the foundation of what we do here.
  6. Not sure I'd want Zavala ahead of Narvaez on the depth chart.
  7. 7th/8th inning guy EVENTUALLY. I think they are going to really ease him back in.
  8. Williamson was the closer in the playoffs
  9. It went Fox to Lyon to Kim
  10. Grandal is a really good framer, but can't throw anyone out.
  11. How many pitchers can they reasonably stretch out in the spring? Right now, there are 12 starters and near starters if you include Fulmer. As I've said before, the depth isn't my concern, it's the TOP of the rotation. They have enough 4/5's to get them through the next 3-4 years IMO.
  12. Regardless, he should never be a starter again.
  13. We apparently expect banners every year, but deserve more last place finishes than ever before! 🙃
  14. I'm being fair and balanced in my reporting. Just straight facts. Others might avoid using certain things that would make their arguments worse, not me.
  15. Horrible nicknames you got there. Back to the drawing board. Can't even comment on the rest of the post because of it.
  16. Compared to other orgs, they do. I know you want an All Star at every position, but that's not going to happen.
  17. He missed a whole season because of his elbow, but if his elbow didn't blow out, his oblique and hips wouldn't have held up either.
  18. Number of times he pitched in back to back games: 1. Number of times he pitched twice in three days: 13. He had a lot of rest for a guy with 46 appearances. 15 appearances 1 inning or less. 41 appearances 2 innings or less. Only 5 times did he pitch over 2 innings. He was 12th in reliever innings that year.
  19. Love it. A lot of the newer parks tried to create their own quirks and it just comes off as phony. There is just something inherently authentic about Fenway and all the weirdness that can happen. One of my favorite moments will be late era Bill Buckner hitting an inside the park HR to RF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VV8eJszQVo Us real freaks want to know what happens in this triangle though.
  20. Should have been traded.
  21. And the trade would be very expensive. I don't think they could extend him either. Pass.
  22. Wong isn't much more than a 100 game guy. They needs an upgrade over these types IMO.
