  1. I don't think this deal had much to do with the firing. We'll never know of course. But JH appeared to be behind this 100%, saying they didn't want to make the same mistake they made with Lester. As for the health of Sale's arm, DD isn't a doctor and he had to rely on the team's medical staff.
  2. Were there any good days/nights to do it though?
  3. Betts, Bogey and Devers have had very limited rest days this year. They are all among the leaders in games played.
  4. Eovaldi pitched 22.1 excellent innings in the 2018 postseason...look it up for Christ's sake.
  5. Settle down a bit, Jax. Eovaldi's injuries the last 2 seasons haven't been major. Just a wee bit of negative bias in your forecast.
  6. And if the toggle switch on Sale's arm goes back to awesome, they'd probably rather have him. They didn't just sign him up for $145 mill for funsies.
  7. It was his mo last year, too, but the results were a lot different.
  8. In retrospect, statements like this one and 'there are no offseason surgeries planned that I know of' tend to support the whole 'disconnect' theme in DD's departure...
  9. Larry isn't Babe, Slash, I can guarantee that. Babe is one of a kind.
  10. We've already tried that with Larry...
  11. But don't you think it had Larry's mitts all over it? I can't see Hoyer and Cherington deciding to make a blockbuster move like that shortly after the departure of Theo.
  12. On that deal, and the Kimbrel deal, it's almost like the other team said 'Can we have one more please, Dave?' and Dave said 'Yeah, yeah, just be quick about it, I don't have all day.'
  13. A better way to evaluate a guy like Porcello might be Quality Starts and Quality Start %.
  14. I thought it was Lucchino who made that move. And Theo later said he wouldn't have done it because he wanted to keep Hanley. But I could be wrong on both counts.
  15. jung, if you're going to criticize the Eovaldi signing, that's fine. But stop with the '7 innings' crap. Use actual facts. Eovaldi had a good half-season last year and then he pitched 22.1 excellent innings in the postseason - not just 7.
  16. You better watch your back, pal. I'll be correcting you every chance I get in retribution for this abuse.
  17. And then there's that other equine expression: 'You can't put the s**t back in the horse.'
  18. It wasn't just the bullpen this year. DD just seemed to be kind of asleep at the wheel. More evidence is the fact the biggest 'reinforcements' to our lineup late in the year have been Chris Owings and Gorkys Hernandez.
  19. Theo was on his famous hiatus when the team traded for Beckett and Lowell.
  20. Al Leiter (close as I can get)
  21. Care to re-phrase that?
  22. It's hard to know what the right thing to do is. The money and the risk are exorbitant. Speaking of which, Mike Trout is having a foot problem right now...
  23. Somehow I don't think anybody said that.
  24. Who signed Pujols for the Angels?
