    I would agree that Betts and JDM are close enough that you could have an argument over who is the better hitter.
  2. Bellhorn04
    In demerits, yes.
  3. Bellhorn04
    5 merit points for you. 5 demerits for notin.
  4. Bellhorn04
    I'll never understand why fans get so worked up about the lineup. The manager can handle it.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Pretty cool that the guy got a ring.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Swihart and Johnson would be mere throw-ins in a deal for Wheeler.

    2018 Betts 346/438/640 JDM 330/402/629

    If we didn't have the offseason drama, how would we get through these 5 months?
  9. Bellhorn04
    The mute button is your friend.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Cora Shmora?
  11. Bellhorn04
    But Kimmi also says a) it doesn't make that much difference and putting the hitters where they are most comfortable may be even more important. And I'm sure she would agree Cora is the best judge of that. Checkmate, fellas.
  12. Bellhorn04
    He is a one year rental, and an expensive one at that.

    What you're saying makes perfect sense, but there seems to be some sort of unwritten code of honor in play here (with most players anyway). It was often asked why the Yankees didn't bunt on Schilling in the bloody sock game.
  14. Bellhorn04
    When it comes to the lineup, I'm in favor of whatever Cora's in favor of.
  15. Bellhorn04
    There really isn't much to say about Gorkys.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Why?
  17. Bellhorn04
    Cool with me then. At one time I thought there were some guidelines here about not having a proliferation of threads.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I would say the common-sense rule is, if you know it can't possibly generate more than a couple of posts, it's not a thread.
  19. Bellhorn04
    You also want your best hitter up as many times as possible, don't you? I sure do. That's the argument for having Betts up first. He's also a pretty damn good leadoff hitter who gets on base and has great speed and baserunning smarts. Also leadoff home runs are not such a bad thing, since teams that take a lead win a high percentage of the time. All that said, the studies that show that the #2 slot gives the optimum combination of coming up with men on base and coming up as many times as possible.

    Can we really make a thread out of this? LOL

    It is a pile of money. We're really seeing some inflated prices this offseason-Corbin, Eovaldi and now McCutchen. I guess that's a good thing as far as the baseball economy goes.
  22. Bellhorn04
    This would be like the Panda situation with us. Whoever signs Tulo only pays minimum and Toronto pays the rest of the $38 mil.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Sox payroll is already at about 240 million for tax purposes. And 2 high-quality free agent relievers will probably set you back around 20 million in total AAV. So the rumor is not implausible.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Clearing money for the bullpen is not implausible.
  25. Bellhorn04
    If I'm getting this right, Cashman has said the Yanks won't go to 300 million on Machado and are basically out on Harper. Can't trust the guy, of course, but he does like to talk, doesn't he?
