    Probably so. But it sounds like no easy task.
  2. Bellhorn04
    We could spend all day on these topics.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Yes +1

    I'm picturing a bunch of crickets in little pinstripe jerseys.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I don't really see the parallel. Cherington was chastisted for 3 main things IMO: 1) Last place finishes. 2) Pablo/Hanley/Castillo. 3) The 2015 pitching staff.

    I read some of the actual quotes from LeVangie, who apparently was the driving force behind it. My impression was that they were genuinely concerned about the effects of the postseason run and the extra innings pitched in relief etc. LeVangie called it 'cautionary'. I don't think it was some grand scheme to have them stronger later in the season.

    They've been known to change their minds, of course. And I think Bogey signed for less than they would have expected. So there's probably still some hope of keeping Mookie. But it sure won't be easy.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Same here.
  9. Bellhorn04
    What some folks may have forgotten is that the Sox publicly stated that it was unrealistic to think they could keep all of Mookie, Sale and Bogaerts long term. Then they extended Sale and Bogaerts...

    Some of these numbers would lead you to believe we're 'late inning chokers' this year. But we're 9-5 in extra inning games. As some would say, you can find a stat to support any position.
  11. Bellhorn04
    I think it's all way overplayed. No one's going to convince me that Sale, Price & Porcello would have had fine seasons if they didn't get babied early. It's just a convenient explanation.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Where does one find those numbers, Kimmi?
  13. Bellhorn04
    Kimmi, you have been very fair and consistent about Dombrowski.
  14. Bellhorn04
    harmony, you're morphing into the new board funny man before our eyes.
  15. Bellhorn04
    fWAR treats Porcello much better than bWAR, you're right about that. If we want to debate fWAR vs. bWAR for pitchers, that's a whole other thread, and it would just turn into an Old School-New School fiasco.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Mookie's no dummy, but there is a real risk of getting injured that can't be totally dismissed.
  17. Bellhorn04
    They don't have to wait until after the season starts any more, as we saw with Sale's extension. They obviously made a change (and a sensible one) in the current CBA on this. Though none of the doofus baseball writers saw fit to explain this to us. Nor did they explain about the change with present-valuing deferred money for AAV purposes as we saw with Sale's deal.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Eovaldi pitched well, so that's one positive thing (from another bone-crushing loss).
  19. Bellhorn04
    Good news.
  20. Bellhorn04
    The point is that Porcello is not a #4 pitcher just because he was on the same staff with 3 studs one year.
  21. Bellhorn04
    How 'bout 'A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.' Which automatically triggers the 'Hmmm, not when it comes to sex' response. Didn't the originator of the expression get that?
  22. Bellhorn04
    The little man is getting ready to pound another nail into the coffin tonight. Will he get to do it?
  23. Bellhorn04
    What are you saying? We shouldn't correct each other? Good one.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Price? I hope you're ready for an incoming missile from harmony.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Not exactly a shocker on Price.
