  1. Sox are 20th in wRC+. Casas, Rafael, Valdez, Abreu, Dalbec are all under 50 wRC+.
  2. For me, it just showed how much more value Kirby has than Bello. Kirby is a 3/4 fWAR guy. Bello has topped out at 1.6. Kirby already is what we project Bello to be at his ceiling.
  3. Angels just got to play the NL A's who just went 0-7 at home.
  4. PER BTV SPECIAL OF THE DAY Bello Mayer Kirby
  5. And since you are the Buzzarding Police, you will be able to buzzard without restraint AND enforce whatever buzzarding rules you want to against other posters to fit your needs. It's a win/win for you.
  6. You tell me. You're the buzzarding police.
  7. Duran has been fantastic. Rafaela has done Rafaela things in the field. O'Neillll has been great. The Catchers have hit well. The rest of the offense has been slow to get going (Casas, Devers and Story haven't pulled their weight in the middle of the lineup). Bello isn't there yet. I think a lot of people put further projection on him, but I don't think he's going to be a #1. The HR rate should cool down a little though. Jansen is just walking too many people. Joely shouldn't be on the team. The rest of the bullpen receives no complaints from me. Campbell doesn't deserve the one ER (lowest bullpen FIP & xFIP and run was allowed by Joely).
  8. This is a different argument than you running down Kirby just because you didn't know who he was.
  9. Prior to the last start, Sox were one of the better hitting teams against Kirby. He’s a great pitcher. If you don’t think so then you don’t know ball.
  10. A sweep is a sweep. 5-2 after the first 7 is fine by me!
  11. Sox playing this one like a getaway day............
  12. I think they are going to keep giving Abreu AB's because it's only the 2nd series of the year. No real reason to freak out yet. If he's OPS'ing 500 on Memorial Day, then you send him down. For now, the sample sizes are too small to worry.
  13. Dodgers are ranked like 25th, so I don't think it's that big of a factor. The bigger factor: Tatis 164 wRC+ Profar 120 wRC+ Merrill 98 wRC+ Tatis is performing really well and the other two starters aren't underperforming all that much. It's an overall solid grouping. Even if they were discounted by 2 games, they'd be in the top 10. For example, Soto leads the Yanks with 0.5 fWAR, but gets dragged down by -0.4 fWAR from Verdugo and Judge.
  14. @alexspeier Last year, Trevor Story was 0-for-7 against 98+ mph pitches and couldn’t catch up to elite fastballs. For that reason, Tuesday - when he had hits off 98 and 101 mph heaters - represented a potentially significant sign for the Red Sox.
  15. Then we should ignore you because of your poor judgement?
  16. Bell with the reach around. Very thoughtful.
  17. Tied for 5th in fWAR for OF.
  18. My tumbluh!
  19. Duran LF Devers 3B Story SS Casas 1B Yoshida DH Rafaela CF Valdez 2B McGuire C Abreu RF
  20. How is saving a run the same as hitting a single?
