As I've said before, it's a natural bias. You hope that we're getting and keeping the right ones and trading the right ones. You did open the DD can of worms, though. Actually, that can pretty much stays open. Because some people keep saying over and over that he decimated the farm. But as of right now, only one player he traded has registered a season with an fWAR higher than 2.1.

Age does become a factor though.
-
Correct, but it is a somewhat different argument, if you really want to get into it.

Excellent. We have something new to argue about already!
-
Of course they didn't.
-
You're right, except we got these guys for virtually nothing. And Pivetta did have a couple of good games!
-
Those projections seem pretty reasonable.

When did he become Strange-Gordon?

Yes, it's Pedey Respect.

fWAR Lester 2018 2.0 2019 2.8 2020 0.3 Perez 2018 -0.1 2019 1.9 2020 0.4 If he's better, it isn't by much.
-
As it turns out, Perez's option was actually for $6.85 million instead of $6.25 million, because of some escalators for innings that he hit - on a pro-rated basis, of course.
-
Harm, there will be a fairly long list of possibilities when all is said and done. Charlie Morton, Jon Lester, Rick Porcello have been mentioned. And as others have said, Perez could still be signed as a free agent.
-
Great job, in fact.
-
"Already danced once" - what does that mean in this context? Cora would still be Red Sox manager if not for his suspension, which of course had nothing to do with his management of the Red Sox.
-
"Integrative baseball performance" sounds like it came out of a random word generator. It looks even longer next to his short little real name.
-
I don't have the answer, but Bloom has shown himself to be a patient and meticulous fellow, as in the Mookie trade. -
To me it says there's still a huge amount of certainty about COVID-19, which there is.
-
But as you've suggested, there's not much point in us signing players to only one-year deals. And some other teams will feel the same.
-
Some players will be more than happy to accept multi-year deals, I think.
-
I don't understand any of it either LOL
-
There is really no doubt who is the single individual most responsible for Mookie Betts's departure. It's Mookie Betts. He's too darn good at baseball. If he was only, say, 10% less good, we would have been able to re-sign him. (Just trying for a little humor.)
-
Sorry if it sounded that way, but I didn't mean to hold you to it. I was just looking for clarification.

Moneyball and the mechanization and computerization of MLB
Bellhorn04 replied to Maxbialystock's topic in Other Baseball
Say it's the ninth inning and you have a one-run lead. You have 5 pitchers available in the bullpen, one of whom is your closer - let's say he's been pitching nearly as well as 2013 Koji - and the other 4 are mediocre. What is the countereffect of using your closer, as logic would dictate? -

And yet analytics seems to dictate frequent pitching changes. It's no wonder this stuff gets confusing.
