    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.
  2. 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.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Where does one find those numbers, Kimmi?
  4. Bellhorn04
    Kimmi, you have been very fair and consistent about Dombrowski.
  5. Bellhorn04
    harmony, you're morphing into the new board funny man before our eyes.

    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.

    Mookie's no dummy, but there is a real risk of getting injured that can't be totally dismissed.

    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.

    Eovaldi pitched well, so that's one positive thing (from another bone-crushing loss).
  10. Bellhorn04
    Good news.
  11. Bellhorn04
    The point is that Porcello is not a #4 pitcher just because he was on the same staff with 3 studs one year.

    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?

    The little man is getting ready to pound another nail into the coffin tonight. Will he get to do it?
  14. Bellhorn04
    What are you saying? We shouldn't correct each other? Good one.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Price? I hope you're ready for an incoming missile from harmony.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Not exactly a shocker on Price.
  17. Bellhorn04
    When the Red Sox gave Porcello that extension, there's little doubt that they overpaid a bit on the salary, but in return they got a relatively short 4 years. It's not all about the salary. The way I look at it, it was a 5 year contract for 95 million. He was already set to make 12.5 million for 2015. And the extension was announced before he had thrown a pitch for us in a real game.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Grammatical corrections are not good form.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Cleveland lost. A's playing Angels right now.
  20. Bellhorn04
    It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Yeah sure-in 2014, when they also had Verlander, Scherzer and Price. Porcello actually had a better season than Verlander in 2014. C'mon Larry, don't try to pull the wool over our eyes here.
  22. Bellhorn04
    To be totally fair, he did some good rebuilding work when he was with the Marlins.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Sorry to correct you again, but Eovaldi's 'loose bodies' were actually not discovered until after he made his 4th start of the season on April 17.
  24. Bellhorn04
    What do we really know about how badly other teams wanted him? If they had offered a lot, he might be gone already. I believe DD dangled him this past offseason, but obviously wasn't impressed with the offers.
  25. Bellhorn04
    What exactly is the point in hating on the guy on his way out the door anyway? Porcello may not have earned his full contract, but he was by no means a bust. And he came up pretty big in last year's playoff run, too. If you care about the flags, there's a value in that that can't even be quantified.
