    Jeep's are expensive and tend to retain their value. It's a Jeep thing. You wouldn't understand.
  2. mvp 78
    He's trying to pull everything and his topped % is over 66% I think. If he goes the other way, he'll see more success. He's making contact, it's just bad contact right now. We'll see if he can adjust.
  3. mvp 78
    How much do you think Jeep's are? A new Grand Wagoneer is about 100K. You can spend over 80K on a Wrangler.
  4. mvp 78
    Yeah, people aren't robots. The game isn't played on a spreadsheet. That's the argument, right?

    It's Reese McGuire's fault that Sale sucks now though! CERA, CERA Whatever made you want to change your mind? CERA, CERA So easy to look at, so hard to define.

    That's why the last sentence of my post stated: And it doesn't seem like the Sox have some scouting or development advantage over other organizations. The strategy doesn't make sense if their scouting or development isn't functioning properly.
  7. mvp 78
    He hasn't brought any new scouts in. There have been no organizational changes under Bloom.
  8. mvp 78
    He didn't bring the Tampa playbook with him. He heard all of the criticisms about Tampa North and decided he shouldn't do that.
  9. mvp 78
    We could have just extended Xander!
  10. mvp 78
    Av Exit Velo is bottom 7th percentile! He's also bottom third in sprint speed! Seems great for leadoff!
  11. mvp 78
    He needs time to acclimate. Pushing him to leadoff would make him press more IMO. Him batting 6th for now is fine especially since his xwOBA is the bottom 29th percentile.
  12. mvp 78
    I'm sure player's manager Alex Cora would completely disagree with this assessment.
  13. mvp 78
    That's what happens when your arm no longer works the same way.
  14. mvp 78
    Sonny Gray is a RHP so I would assume McGuire.
  15. mvp 78
    @redsoxstats Chris Sale Day again. His fastball and sinker have been two of the worst pitches in baseball, his fastball literally the worst pitch in baseball (min. 50 pitches) with a .785 wOBA allowed. If his command resurfaces, we'll see if it's a cure-all.

    They are a middle market team. They are the Minnesota Twins.
  17. mvp 78
    Yeah, but we're free to talk about all things Red Sox on here. Feel free to talk about Brennan Bernardino if you'd like!
  18. mvp 78
    Until Masa actually starts putting good wood on the ball, he can be lower in the lineup. It's just ugly right now. He's just pressing too much and not going the other way. Having him hit leadoff would make it worse.
  19. mvp 78
    xBA top 4% K% top 4% Whiff% top 3% OAA top 5% Highest BB% of his career I just hope he recognizes that this is the best fit for him as a player.
  20. mvp 78
    This is just the bad "they are playing a kids game" argument.
  21. mvp 78
    I've seen little indication that his creativeness can work in our favor either. I think his plan is simply: 1. sign veterans to short contracts to fill whatever holes are in the lineup while staying under the CBT 2. wait for the prospects to get to BOS The problem with the first part is that the short contract guys typically are the lesser FA's and are older and more likely to break down or perform poorly. The problem with the second part is that prospects get injured, don't develop or take too long to develop. And it doesn't seem like the Sox have some scouting or development advantage over other organizations.
  22. mvp 78
    Verdugo has been killing it there, I wouldn't move him. He's also expressed a desire to NOT hit first.
  23. mvp 78
    It's not Bloom's mess?
  24. mvp 78
    It was his first start of the year with bad weather and he had no Spring Training because he was shut down due to an arm issue. If there's any time to give him a pass it'd be this game. Sheesh.
  25. mvp 78
    That's why the Rays are always a solid team. They just play good baseball day in and day out. Why Bloom has built this team in this manner? I have no clue. We've all talked about the concerns defensively and the low ceiling the rotation could have. This is Bloom's mess to figure out.
