  1. This is literally what i said: Can you point me in the direction of the mention of ERA or CERA?
  2. Cherry picking with the blown save thing. The point is that the amount of injuries the Red Sox sustained directly affected their early-season performance. That is not debatable. Innacurate statistic heavily influenced by umpire performance. It doesn't take a whole lot of statistical analysis to see that Red Sox pitchers fare worse with Salty than with other catchers. Not everything can be accurately measured statistically (yet) so don't waste your time with incomplete stats. As for his offense, he's currently above average, but he's actually hitting over his head if you take career norms into account. It's not a big sample, but it's indicative of performance. Also, while his BABIP is not heavily inflated, his LD% is, and regression in that department is a big problem for low-contact guys like him, specially with an unsustainable 21% of his fly balls leaving the yard. Expect regression.
  3. Do you honestly think the blowout against the Yankees happens with a healthy Bailey? And don't you think the BP would have been better overall with Aceves in his super-all role? Sure, it may be impossible to determine, but it's not a stretch (in fact, it's perfectly logical) to think that a better composed bullpen saves this team a lot of early grief. Using Aceves' BS as basis for the argument is cherry-picking. The composition of the BP changes completely if Bailey is healthy to begin the season. Besides, that's only one side of the coin: What about the rest of the walking wounded?
  4. TTP (Total Team Player)
  5. This. He's a big part of the pitching staff's problem.
  6. Bro, what i'm saying is that compared to the rest of the AL which is supposed to be down, the Red Sox still look awful injury-wise. You're the one who needs to keep the post in context.
  7. Yeah simple math seems to be a forgotten science.
  8. Blah blah blah Red Sox suck, blah blah blah they have no heart, blah blah blah punt the season, blah blah blah inept FO. 2.5 out of first before May ends and with half the team on the DL. How good can this team be if it gets fully healthy?
  9. But doesn't this team play average baseball and suck?
  10. While the fabulous Michael Pineda and Jose Campos enjoy the vacation known as the DL, Jesus Montero continues to mash and play average D at catcher (when allowed) while playing in a stadium where RH power goes to die.
  11. Shoppach should never, ever, ever be in the batter's box against a RHP.
  12. Valentine is abusing Aceves.
  13. Hey Dojji, i'll be happy if Nava keeps proving me wrong.
  14. Well the Red Sox have quite a problem now with Middlebrooks, Youkilis AND Gonzalez hitting well.
  15. Brennan, what the f*** does that even mean? Also, please go away and don't even talk to me. You are the most annoying poster on this site, and i don't want to waste my precious time talking to you.
  16. You didn't, because according to you, he has no "talent", even though he can throw an upper 90's fastball.
  17. The fix is on....
  18. It's like if Sweeney doesn't even exist.
