    Well, it's not much of an article, but to be fair to Jackson, it was mostly a recap of what another blogger said, and Jackson said this: If there's one thing that's for certain, it's that the Red Sox have to ignore the Sale piece of all this. Looking back, there's no guarantee the lefty would have stayed healthy and been a Cy Young contender last year if he'd stayed in Boston, and at any rate, the Red Sox should only be looking forward.

    They really need to add TJ stats to Baseball-Reference now.

    Lucas Btfsplk.

    I don't think it was all a media creation. There was some bad messaging all around, and Devers contributed to it.

    One thing I always chuckle at when watching my DVD's of the 2004 postseason is Tim McCarver making a big deal of my man Bellhorn being an unlikely choice as a #2 hitter.

    We need Kimmi here. I believe the idea of having your "best" hitter up second is that you benefit from a combo package of their higher PA's, RBI opportunities and their OBP setting up the hitters behind them.

    A healthy rotation is pretty much an oxymoron now. The Dodgers seem to have the right approach-by starting with about a dozen guys, there's a good chance of having 3 healthy ones in the playoffs. Admittedly it's an approach that gets a bit pricey...

    I won't get too excited about our offense until I see Devers healthy and hitting. To me his health is still a question mark.

    As of this moment candidates for 4 and 5 are Giolito, Fitts, Priester and Criswell. Pretty Cap'n Obvious, really. And Giolito's hammy issue just as Obviously makes him a tad questionable.

    But that will probably include Crochet and Buehler, so I don't think that's exactly what you mean.

    Nice comeback win for the Sox last night! 😉 Mayer with the clutch two-out game tying hit, and now OPSing 1.071! Criswell with 3 scoreless and 4 Ks to notch the win!

    Big fan of figures of speech, huh? Looks like the original version of this saying was "the proof of the pudding is in the eating".
  13. Bellhorn04
    Man, the Sale trade and the Giolito signing were cursed transactions.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Which group of "these guys" is Giolito part of?
  15. Bellhorn04
    My suggested offers to Crochet were largely rejected by Talksox intelligentsia as being too much.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Right, good catch.

    Cora showing a sense of humor using Cooper Adams and Austin Adams back to back today.

    I saw Kingman hit one out of Wrigley that went across the street, bounced in a driveway and hit the side of a house. The owner came out to retrieve the ball. I think it was on a Game of the Week. Kingman could launch them.

    Hopefully it's not a transition to IL.

    I think it's possible his health is in fact a question mark. They shut him down in September and he's still not 100%.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Throwing a baseball at high speed and spin rates is different from any other sports movement, I have to think, in the amount of damage it causes on a widespread level.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Is he talking specifically about the '25 Sox?
  23. Bellhorn04
    There's just no comparison between throwing a baseball in the high 90's and shooting a basketball. Steph Curry could probably shoot basketballs 500 times a day every day.
  24. Bellhorn04
    The only other factor I can think of is that pitchers didn't throw nearly as hard back then, so maybe that resulted in more "meatball" pitches that were easier to launch.
  25. Bellhorn04
    There are really only two possible explanations: 1) Distances of past long balls were overstated. 2) The baseball is deader now. What else could there be?
