  1. Yes, one rather erratic Cy Young winner.
  2. Koufax was one of my early heroes. The 1965 World Series was the first one I really watched. Every game of that series was won by the home team until Game 7, when Koufax pitched a 3-hit shutout on 2 days rest, after a 4-hit shutout in Game 5. IIRC Koufax didn't start Game 1 of that Series because it fell on Yom Kippur.
  3. And Franklin was born and grew up in Boston, so he knew whereof he spoke.
  4. Why the heck would Happ do that? You think Pearce done him wrong when they were teammates, or you think Happ's a psycho?
  5. Cora could see that he didn't have his good stuff just as much as we could. But Porcello has had games in the past where he has looked bad early and then gotten better. Cora's options were all bad there. I understand what his thinking was. That's all I'm saying.
  6. MLPBA calculated it at 191.4 million.
  7. That and the fact he's a little short-staffed right now with Pomeranz, Wright and Johnson all on the shelf. I think Velazquez was slated to start Sunday's game but he had to pitch 2 innings last night.
  8. If it's good enough for Theo, it's good enough for me. He's the best or right up there, so why not use him as a model (says me).
  9. If I could have split my vote it would have been Cora/JDM. I voted Cora because I figure most people will vote for JDM.
  10. It's not my recollection that it was far out of line. I believe Scherzer had turned down a 6 year/144 million extension from the Tigers at the start of the year and there was some surprise about that, but he thought he could get more. Prior to signing for his 7 year/195 million deal (using the present value thing), Lester had signed for 6/155.
  11. Lester and Scherzer may be showing it doesn't always work that way.
  12. Strong possibility, obviously. The Dodgers might make a run at him, to make things interesting.
  13. Gibson's postseason log is a thing of beauty all right. 3 World Series - 9 games - 81 innings! (One of those was 8 innings and one was 10.)
  14. Who knows, maybe the Sox caught a big break hanging onto Swihart until he finally gets a chance to play.
  15. Mookie's numbers are Stayin' Sick: 352/440/683 - 1123
  16. 19 days to go. Cashman is going to do something major, I have little doubt of that.
  17. I think what happened last night was, we have Mookie Betts.
  18. I only watched part of the game but I was fortunate enough to see that at-bat.
  19. So does this make Schilling's postseason numbers more impressive?
  20. He probably would have been an easy sign for what we gave Price don't you think? Scherzer's deal with the Nats equates to $190-195 million in present dollars because of the deferred money.
  21. Postseason sample sizes and dispersion are hugely problematic, I won't argue that. Although some pitchers, the Big 3 from the Braves, Pettitte and Schilling for example, accumulated some relatively large ones.
  22. So why'd you ask me about me LOL Some ballplayers also have 20 year careers. I think the point is you can't really apply one general rule to everything.
  23. I think we can agree on that.
  24. In my job, absolutely. Physical stuff, maybe not exactly. But the differences are not large at all. Let's not make 9 years sound like forever.
