  1. Which is exactly why I wouldn't have that play memorized. It's not like an unassisted triple play or something.
  2. Exception proves the rule yada yada yada.
  3. This is the mark of a .500 team. This has been said all season long.
  4. No, you use your "eye test" only on highlights. It's not worth conversing with you over this.
  5. That's different than the difficulty of the play.
  6. No, because I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of every MLB game.
  7. Red Sox should move to Nashville and get in a worse division.
  8. Mediocre fielding play. That catch is made almost nightly in MLB.
  9. Eye test on highlights? Now that's a new low...
  10. He was built for the mid-80's Cardinals lineup in Busch Stadium. He would have won a batting title there.
  11. Giddy when? People got excited when he played well during the WBC. Before then, he was still a big unknown that we hadn't seen.
  12. And the broadcasts note that he does better with the quick throws rather than the ones he has time to think about.
  13. It's not that Raffy is the worst 3B in the league, it's just that his bat is great enough to keep him in the lineup everyday. The other bad fielding 3b's get sent back to AAA or moved to parttime roles at least. (Segura and JD Davis are all worse than Raffy this year per DRS. In 2021 when Devers was -13, Bohm and Dozier were as bad or worse since they played in far fewer innings.)
  14. Cubs tanked and then couldn't keep it going. Astros tanked and then turned into a monster. Dodgers never tanked but figured out how to become a monster. Rays did rays things and nobody can figure out how to replicate it.

  16. Interesting. He deserves a shot and is a good defender.
  17. He's better than Benintendi at least.
  18. Sox are a big market and should act like it. They should be able to pay guys they like.
  19. Not sure what baserunning has to do with defense?
  20. Damon's -0.6 dWAR in 04 is worse than Devers' this year and you want to move Devers to 1b. His -11 DRS was almost twice as bad as Masa's and people want to either trade or DH him.
  21. I don't think his range would be very good and he'd have trouble with the footwork turning a double play IMO.
  22. I agree that it's very weird that he put together a team with bad defense and a horrible rotation.
  23. In 04, Damon, Manny and Millar were all pretty bad defensively.
  24. I agree with #4 or at least that they attempt to try #4 and Bloom just says "well, we tried it, but we didn't get the right value" and he's still here on Opening Day.
  25. 2021 was a great year, but 2020 and the past two have taken their toll for sure.
