  1. Some times the other guy is going to beat you. The question is whether it's OK to not just beat the other guy but "show him up" as the old parlance puts it. The Bautista bat flip seems to me to be a bit of a precedent-setter on this. Texas players obviously took serious exception to it.
  2. He might be. But the Red Sox have been burned on so many big dollar contracts in the last decade.
  3. I'm pretty neutral about it. But a lot of people seemed to think Bautista had it coming.
  4. I predict JBJ gets at least $15 million total.
  5. Just thinking of Jose Bautista and Rougned Odor...
  6. The Padres' power really went off last night. I do have to wonder about the celebratory antics and whether some opposing players are going to take serious offense to it.
  7. FanGraphs says he's worth more than that. But it says the same thing about Kevin Pillar. It's just not the player profile that's getting paid right now.
  8. Exactly. 1 in 262,144. And how many postseason games have there been in MLB history? Maybe 2,500-3,000?
  9. It's a rhetorical question, because none of us have any idea.
  10. To be fair, the Red Sox are not the only team to have a small number of African American players in 2020.
  11. You don't give up easy.
  12. One is more than one?
  13. It'll always be a bit of a head-scratcher, especially in a penny-pinching year.
  14. But how could Kennedy possibly know what the operating losses of other teams were? It makes more sense he was talking about lost revenue.
  15. "The other man's grass is always greener" syndrome sure seems to apply some times.
  16. The Fungibles.
  17. This comment has nothing to do with whether we should try to re-sign JBJ, only with the pay system itself. JBJ's arbitration salary for 2020 was $11 million. But the consensus seems to be he's only worth about half that. Have we reached a point where some guys will make more money in their last year of arbitration than they could make as free agents?
  18. Cole is in Beast Mode, so that first game should be epic.
  19. So we're getting our dream matchup next round. Should be intense.
  20. Congrats on the win.
  21. Curious indeed. Maybe BTV, like the rest of us, has the occasional glitch in its calculations?
  22. The odds against 18 heads in a row are astronomical. To be exact, the chances of flipping 18 heads in a row are 1 in 262,144.
  23. The Red Sox lost 13 postseason games in a row from 1986 to 1995.
  24. The Curse of Big Papi?
