  1. Nope. Still disagreeing with you. I already admitted that I failed to look up if there were teams who did it later. What I'm arguing about here is semantics. I don't think you're an expert on that subject.
  2. It actually wasn't a save opportunity.
  3. I don't disagree about the W's and L's. But to me the things that stand above all others are: 1. World Series championships. 2. Playoff appearances. The Red Sox are the most successful team of the 21st century. A disappointing 2019 doesn't change that.
  4. His ERA in the 2018 postseason was 3.52. He had a hold and a win against the Yankees in the ALDS. I think that falls under coming through when we needed him the most.
  5. What a disaster. Good think we didn't do that, at least.
  6. You need to take into account the CONTEXT of my statement. I was clearly only talking about WHAT HAPPENED IN 1973, starting with the fact that runs increased by .52. I think we need a third opinion to break the deadlock. I nominate Kimmi.
  7. C'mon, it's a minor fudging of facts. He was signed in December/18, I realize that. The real issue is that we didn't have anybody better than these two whiffle bats to bolster our lineup late in the season. That's been kind of overlooked because of all the pitching woes.
  8. Gorkys and Owings have to be the worst pair of late-season 'additions' to a team's offense in history.
  9. 2 good starts in a row. If he'd re-sign for one year for 5-6 million you'd have to do it. But if he ends the season well someone will give him more than that, hefty ERA and all.
  10. Greatest set of back-ups in baseball history. Yanks are having one of the weirdest successful seasons of the ages.
  11. Yep. But now they're fattening up the win total of the division.
  12. The AL West was gifted with the Houston Astros.
  13. Uncle Charlie Morton is having quite a season.
  14. For a long time the Rays have gotten more bang for their buck than we have. On the other hand, we have the most titles of any team this century. I'll still take that.
  15. The Red Sox have a 16-15 record against the mighty AL West.
  16. Our games against the Orioles and Blue Jays are offset by our games against the Yankees and Rays.
  17. Certainly true, but with the raises in arb salaries, if your farm system produces a superstar like Mookie Betts, you're still going to be paying him a hefty salary in his last couple of years before free agency.
  18. I think you're right.
  19. The other rub is that the guys under contract get paid the same even when they stink or don't play at all. There are a lot of rubs.
  20. It almost seems like bWAR for pitchers is more Old School than New School!
  21. Good question. I have no idea what his role was before.
  22. Frank Wren and Eddie Bane have also been canned now. Somewhat surprisingly, Tony LaRussa is being kept around for another year.
