  1. Why should he give up the money, though, when he was obviously injured right on the field? This is no phantom injury or Cespedes-like idiot off-field injury.
  2. So that's the likely outcome here.
  3. Does the team have to declare him physically unable to play for him to collect his money without retiring? Any idea how that works?
  4. The question is becoming, what is the right thing for Pedey to do if in fact he just can't play any more. The right thing is not to give up the money. He deserves the money. He got injured on the battlefield.
  5. My avatar is just a little joke about the Cliff. I see that the Game Threaders consensus is now that Cora got lucky last year. No surprise. Game Threaders are a miserable lot when the team is going bad.
  6. Bob, you're a real barrel of laughs when you get it going.
  7. They're playing a doubleheader.
  8. Yanks are playing again tonight.
  9. Leon catching. Interesting.
  10. And Kevin Pillar is also just as offensively challenged as JBJ. The other man's grass is always greener...
  11. Betts isn't a free agent until after 2020.
  12. Liking a guy at 32 is a little different from liking a guy at 42.
  13. Koji was fantastic, not trying to knock him at all. But I hold 2004 Foulke and 2007 Papelbon in equally high regard. They all got the job done in their own way.
  14. Not spending on the bullpen provides evidence to me that they decided it was a place to save money. I don't think anyone disagrees with that. But you're the one saying that not spending on the bullpen while spending 6.25 million on Pearce is the most questionable allocation of money you've ever seen. BTW Henry did spend a pile this offseason, when you factor in the extensions for Sale and Bogaerts, plus Eovaldi. If anything he reaffirmed clearly that he's more than willing to have the highest payroll and to pay millions in tax.
  15. I can't see 2013 in his post.
  16. Now you're moving the posts. The 2019 bullpen hasn't even been that bad. It's certainly not why we're scuffling.
  17. Oh yes, you've been totally quiet about it cp. Not a single sarcastic remark.
  18. You can criticize the inaction on the bullpen, sure, but that's really it. 'As questionable as I’ve ever seen' is just wild hyperbole. It was just a few offseasons ago we splurged on Sandoval, Hanley and Castillo.
  19. It seems I am the devil's advocate in this thread. But there's no comparison between Koji and Rivera. Rivera did it year after year for 2 damn decades.
  20. He did have some very good to excellent seasons. But 2013 was a freak.
  21. The FOM is in great form.
  22. That's true, but his age 38 season was better than his age 34-37 seasons, too.
  23. I agree with Dojji that 2013 Koji was lightning in a bottle. He was superhuman that year, but he could not do that consistently, nor could anyone.
  24. He'll be back. No matter what his arb cost, it has to be an attractive discount from FA cost.
