  1. dWAR currently has him at 0.0 for the season.
  2. Even more especially when it's the second time in 10 days that scrub beat you.
  3. I think JBJ is a perfect example of why WAR is a valuable thing. If you only looked at the back of his baseball card, you'd wonder why he's been our everyday CFer so long.
  4. It's no different than popping up and having the fielder drop the ball. A defensive mistake allows the player to reach base.
  5. That's a fair point, but the fact is that our offense is .01 runs per game from being the highest scoring offense in MLB. The offense is fine. The pitching is brutal.
  6. The 2019 offense is now averaging more runs than the 2018 offense. The pitching has been brutal. That's the simple explanation.
  7. No, man. The earlier bunt was to move a runner from first to second. Here the runner was already at second. Your WTF confirmation bias is really getting the better of you.
  8. For defensive ratings that mean anything you only have two choices - WAR analytical stuff or eyeball stuff. As flawed as WAR stuff may be, the idea that eyeball stuff is better is kind of a joke IMHO
  9. The rocket ball and the right field porch are an exciting combination LOL
  10. Splinter, who was the last Sox manager you actually liked? It was Don Zimmer, wasn't it?
  11. We have fans who would trade their parents, their siblings and their children 'for the right return'.
  12. We've also seen plenty of occasions with a runner at third and one out that the sac fly wasn't executed. It's by no means automatic.
  13. Hector is still cheap and still has options. And he pitched OK last year. But he's certainly not far from being a goner.
  14. When you go on a game thread and predict a player is going to have a good game, and he does, you always get some congrats for it. If he goes 0 for 4, of course, you just look like a regular stooge. But what the hell. I'll predict 2 hits for Beni tonight.
  15. He did finish 4th, 5th and 6th in the Fielding Bible rankings the last 3 seasons.
  16. LOL I'm sure they have lots of people.
  17. Wright has a bruised right foot, he got hit by a line drive by Muncy.
  18. You're just guessing about Wright. Velazquez pitched 3 days in a row and wouldn't be available for a couple of days so he got shuttled. And you just said Nunez should have been gone weeks ago.
  19. Can't expect a big boost, but I daresay a 10-8 record from our 5 slot has been incredibly lucky and bound for regression.
  20. He will likely be Alex's bench coach at some point.
  21. Most times when a reliever pitches 2 innings, they get 2 days off. 3 innings is probably 3 days off. That's part of the issue.
  22. If you don't mind me throwing around some really rough numbers here... I would say that the 10 game difference between us and the Yanks is about 50% on the rotation and 50% on the pen. Dombrowski probably isn't surprised we're trailing the Yanks, but he probably figured we'd be within a few games of them at this point, and that he could add at the deadline.
  23. On that point, you can probably fault Dombrowski for over-relying on this rotation to eat innings, with Sale's array of issues, Eovaldi's injury record, Price's age, and a lack of depth options.
  24. Johnny Neuron!
  25. That really is rinky-dink.
