    I think the original premise was faulty. R - 9th OBP - 8th SLG - 7th OPS - 8th

    Their pace should look better after this current 10 game stretch against KC/DET/WSH. The two HOU series later this month are far more important and a better barometer of where this team actually is. Hard to get too excited right now? They should be beating up a team with a .316 win %.

    Do you think they played good baseball this series?

    Instead of just owning the ballpark, he wants to own all the land around it similar to the new Braves stadium. It's no longer "build a baseball stadium and it'll revitalize downtown," it's "give lots of money so that a billionaire can own a massive development."

    The jet stream effect is real though. I just don't think it is an issue for all players, mainly LHB.

    Rafaela HOME 913 OPS AWAY 1107 OPS Story also had a higher away OPS.
  7. mvp 78
    So the issue is more about the quirkiness of having a certain amount of hitters over an arbitrary OPS line rather than actual production. I see. I guess that's what having a black hole at 2B and SS does for runs scored.

    They are 6th in SLG.

    I am glad that a pair of Vans will now be located at the HOF due to Lorenzen.

    Name out of a hat lineup: 1. Reyes SS 2. Devers 3B 3. Duvall CF 4. Casas 1B 5. Story DH 6. Verdugo RF 7. Duran LF 8. Urías 2B 9. McGuire C

    So if their OPS is high, why aren't they scoring runs?

    It was Tuesday night per the Gameday, bottom of the 5th. Sinker down and in-Change up and away-Sinker up and away. Why hitters don't protect the plate with 2 strikes (and a runner on!) anymore, I'll never understand.
  13. mvp 78
    It was not last night that he took 3 straight strikes. I just checked the game feed. In his two k's, he only took 2 pitches for strikes, with 3 swinging strikes and one foul.
  14. mvp 78
    I don't think we get that version this season.
  15. mvp 78
    Kutter being better than Houck or Whitlock is really only by a razor thin margin. He was much better pitching out of the pen.
  16. mvp 78
    People that were watching the games said he was basically feasting on mistake pitches. Maybe he can start getting some of those?

    He wasn't allowed to spend any additional time in AAA per IL rules.
  19. mvp 78
    Has the player/agent thing come up before or no?
  20. mvp 78
    They should have given him a relief contract then!
  21. mvp 78
    0-8, 8 gdp!!!
  22. mvp 78
    Disagree. People were very mad that Vaz was traded and that the Sox didn't make real trades at the deadline last season.
  23. mvp 78
    Nope.
  24. mvp 78
    As long as it's not boring.
  25. mvp 78
    He really struggled with the heat (specifically 4 seamers) last season too more so than sliders. Per Statcast, he had a +5 RunValue against sliders and wasn't really missing a lot of chase pitches. My guess is that he continues to miss fastballs, which is a shame because he used to be a good fastball hitter. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/visuals/swing-take?playerId=596115&playerSet=hitters&year=2022
