    What was the analytics on the Whitlock sliding catch? I only saw the highlights. Is he a 2.0 dWAR guy as a pitcher? The next Greg Maddux?
  2. mvp 78
    Plays decent defense and has lots of pop. I've enjoyed the Adam Duvall experience. Too bad he got injured.

    Hmmm, that doesn't sound right! I could have sworn that my favorite childhood player won the MVP in 1978. Huh! I know for sure it wasn't the Cobra Dave Parker.

    Those familiar with TalkSox lore know the reason for the ‘78 moniker: I’m a huge Willie Stargell fan.

    https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-trends-inside-the-decline-in-errors-plus-bobby-witt-jr-breaks-out-and-christian-yelich-returns-to-form/#:~:text=There%20were%201.77%20errors%20per,rate%20in%20history%20this%20season. There were 1.77 errors per game in 1970. That number gradually dropped to 1.71 in 1980, 1.51 in 1990, 1.42 in 2000, and 1.25 in 2010. Clearly though, that decline has accelerated in recent years, and MLB is on pace to post its lowest error rate in history this season. It's all bookkeeping that has no real impact on the action on the field. It is a rather significant shift in a short period of time though. 2019: 1.19 errors per game (between the two teams) 2020: 1.17 2021: 1.08 2022: 1.06 2023: 1.01

    We may see a couple more, but I don't think anything substantial.
  7. mvp 78
    I don't know where it came from, but I've read it elsewhere that official scorers are more likely to call more plays a hit and less errors (see: Harper's inside the park job that should have had an error called).
  8. mvp 78
    Not the suggestion at all.
  9. mvp 78
    The Bush Push was a legitimate play. Rudy was a pedo. All golden domers go straight to hell. Even Boston College fans can agree with that.
  10. mvp 78
    I see an FAQ but no key? Halp?
  11. mvp 78
    I'm a Jets, Trojans, Canadians fan. My #1's are far different from yours.

    Kristian Campbell called up to GRE. Had a 1082 OPS in FCL. Skipping SAL as he's a college grad.
  13. mvp 78
    And yet it happens everyday on here in one form or another.
  14. mvp 78
    Agreed 1,000,000%. I'm really into the PPA right now because it's just a more modern game. Johns and Waters are just at the top of their game right now. Why follow baseball at all at this point? Boring game!
  15. mvp 78
    I didn't even start following the Red Sox until they hired Chaim Bloom so...
  16. mvp 78
    2007 was Mike Lowell, 0.9 dWAR, 5.0 bWAR, 150 GS at 3B.
  17. mvp 78
    And now there's just over a month left. It's less and less likely at this point.
  18. mvp 78
    Needs a sports psychologist.
  19. mvp 78
    You would not know this as you only saw the highlights.
  20. mvp 78
    If you are just chasing one team down, it's doable. The problem is that the Sox have to pass 2 teams and haven't shown the ability all year to do so. It's very unlikely. Less than 10% chance.
  21. mvp 78
    I don't remember those plays? Were highlights shown?
  22. mvp 78
    Wow indeed.
  23. mvp 78
    At some point, it's not the coaching's fault, but the players. Right? Duran followed coaching direction and improved his poor defense to be mediocre. Why can't Raffy? Can Casas?
  24. mvp 78
    Disagree. 2/3's of TalkSox voters had the Sox under .500. They seem to be wrong.
  25. mvp 78
    No, it's simple game theory. The new money ball for owners. If you can't win in a certain division, just swap for an easier division!
