  1. Yes, have you seen the NESN broadcast this year?
  2. 2nd - 3 4th - 1!!! 5th - 1 6th - 1
  3. Duran (numbers typically bad across the board, but...) 2 outs, RISP - 1125 OPS, 4 RBI High Leverage - 808 OPS, 6 RBI
  4. Trevor Story Sox Ahead - 1154 OPS, 11 RBI Sox Behind - 456 OPS, 3 RBI Sox Tied - 225 OPS, 3 RBI Game within 1 Run - 286 OPS, 8 RBI Late and Close - 296 OPS, 1 RBI High Leverage - 321 OPS, 5 RBI Med Leverage - 231 OPS, 5 RBI Low Leverage - 834 OPS, 7 RBI
  5. Cheng is so valued, he didn't even get a PA last night in AAA because a LHP was starting.
  6. People that legitimately thought he'd start getting MVP votes in year 2 need to relax with their fandom. The GB issues have been going on since he was at Salem. I don't really care about his k rate since he also has a high bb rate.
  7. His 1 HR is due to high GB rate which I've mentioned a ton on here... His k% is less than what it was last year.
  8. Cheng is a LHB. They aren't going to call him up to replace Monasterio as Cora would never play him.
  9. Whether he's leading off or hitting 3rd, just put him somewhere and leave him there for a few weeks. The team already stinks, at least give him a chance to get hot. There are only a few bats here that can push this offense and he's one of them.
  10. Yeah, but it's still the same swing profile. I think his numbers will get better, but he's not going to provide the power that the Sox needed. Good defense and will reduce the over k% issues, but no pop at all. That's what I mean by "he's the same guy as last year."
  11. DD didn't care about the bottom of the 40 man or even fielding a AAA team TBH. I think the org is stronger now and don't really have to rely on guys like Jack Lopez if there's an injury. Bloom did a good job, but couldn't get the team over the finish line. I don't know if he was unable to do certain deals because of ownership or because he didn't have the experience. He doesn't seem to have a problem pulling the trigger in STL!
  12. Even if Romy is here, they maybe have one more win. It's just a poorly constructed team.
  13. I'm always on fire. You just typically are packing an extinguisher.
  14. It worked for Mookie.
  15. Red Sox Offense: 28th wRC+ 30th HR 26th R 30th ISO 30th SLG 27th SF 28th OPS 2nd GB% 3rd GIDP
  16. The reason his WAR numbers are so good in 2019 is because he had a good defensive season. He led AL 3B's in OAA and FRV. He didn't win a GG and wasn't one of the two runners up either.
  17. You think these people know shame?!?!? After all the things they've done since 2019!
  18. He sees a RHB and a LHP, he platoons. It's what he does numbers be damned. Done with him.
  19. IKF has also been kinda bad historically against LHP. And this year he's been laughably bad: 143 OPS!
  20. Merloni has good insights from time to time, but he also toes the company line a lot. He's better now than when he had to be a hot take machine on WEEI.
  21. It's not the overall spending that's the problem. The problem is that they set a market for each individual player. The player will go out and find a slightly higher contract elsewhere. Sox never stretch themselves to get the guys they want. All those "he's our #1 target" guys just slip through the cracks every offseason. It's embarrassing. Instead of spending $500M, just spend enough on the guys you really want to bring in.
  22. It's what happens when you put all your eggs in the pitching basket.
  23. Every team uses driveline now. I don't think that's the problem. It's the players. Marcelo never showed he was ready at AAA. Roman never showed he could do anything but hit GB's. Story has stunk since leaving COL. Durbin is the same guy he was last year.
