    Did anyone ever tell you you really know how to keep a conversation going?
  2. Bellhorn04
    It all has to be looked at in the context of having shoulder injury issues last year.
  3. Bellhorn04
    It's not really anything official. Some people mean first 81 games/second 81 games when they talk about halves. And they're not wrong. 81 is in fact half of 162.
  4. Bellhorn04
    Sure, people use pre and post ASB but it doesn't necessarily make sense, because it's not actual halves.

    Sept/24 OPS .496 2025 OPS .747 Don't have to be a Polly to think things are looking up now.
  6. Bellhorn04
    bWAR 0.9 on pace for about 4. Can't expect much better, realistically speaking. Defense is still there, still has pop, obviously plenty o' swing and miss.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Devers's numbers are looking much healthier now. His bWAR is at 0.5. Not bad considering how he started.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Better off, no argument. It's not really going to disturb me if they hold onto him. It's just jabbering material.
  9. Bellhorn04
    IF healthy I think he can absolutely pitch like a #2.
  10. Bellhorn04
    In his last 4 starts he's pitched 24.1 innings with a .589 OPSa. He's pretty damn good when he's healthy.

    34 RBI in 23 games - unusual!
  12. Bellhorn04
    Bello's Run Support Rabbit Paw continues to be in great working order!

    It's a survivable bad contract, I agree on that. His presence might be useful, but let's face it - the only way it is is if Devers goes down to injury, which nobody wants... So if Yoshida is going to have an MLB career of any sort, the Red Sox would be doing him a favor by trading him to a team in need of a DH. But of course they're not really in the business of doing favors. They'd have to recoup some dough in the process...

    Started the year in horrific slump. Broke out of it for a few games. Went into another slump. Broke out of it for a few games. Hopefully he's back for good now. It does look like the horrific start was mostly about rust.
  15. Bellhorn04
    We're facing Logan Allen the 2nd.
  16. Bellhorn04
    The Sox made their blockbuster trade for Crochet and they followed through with the extension. I don't believe Anthony and Mayer are going anywhere, except to Boston.
  17. Bellhorn04
    It doesn't really matter what they told him. The fact is he was always a DH in waiting. We all love him but he got paid about twice as much as he should have.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Lazy post by me - I knew I was leaving someone important out. I love Whitlock.
  19. Bellhorn04
    It's not all gloom and doom. Some stuff has been going right. Crochet, Buehler, Chapman, Slaten, Bregman, Campbell, Abreu, Duran starting to heat up etc. If they have reasonable health luck they really should make the playoffs.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Now you have to be joking. They won the ring in 2018 in spite of those bad contracts. But those contracts also impacted the team's payroll freakout after the 2018 ring. Dombrowski took a lot of heat for the sky-high payrolls in 2018-2019, but the reality was that a lot of the bad contracts were ones he inherited.
  21. Bellhorn04
    No, it's 100% an issue because Yoshida, making 18 million a year, is only suited to DH and Devers has taken that spot from him. So we have an 18 million backup DH that we don't really want to ever see because it would mean Devers is injured.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Some would say we have a present and insoluble DH logjam with Devers and Yoshida.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Man, the numbers really bear this out. Sox offense: Innings 1-3 61 runs .847 OPS 4-6 34 runs .636 OPS 7-9 36 runs .679 OPS
  24. Bellhorn04
    I absolutely agree that DH should be manned full-time by a good hitter, not used to rest guys. The Red Sox problem is having a surplus of guys-Devers, Yoshida and Casas-whose best position is DH.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Both are fielding demotions. DH is the more radical version.
