  1. It's attempting to address a problem that you cited.
  2. Let's just assume his contract doesn't say anything about it. You're still left with the fact that he is helping the competition.
  3. What makes you think WAR doesn't do as good a job of this as possible?
  4. Nice! Very creative.
  5. Maybe the thinking on Nunez is to see if he can get it going real soon or if they have to DFA him.
  6. I think there is definitely a fine line between what some people call choke and what others call 'negative mental factors' or some such thing.
  7. Now that I would call a Yankee fluff piece.
  8. Mainly because I can't just let his nonsense stand. Partially just for kicks.
  9. I don't throw the term around lightly at all. Just check his posting history.
  10. Porcello's HR rate is fine. He's on the same HR pace as in 2016, his Cy Young season, and much better than last year. You're grasping at straws. But that's what trolls do.
  11. Price had a great stretch until Sunday night. moon is right, you are reacting to one or two-game samples.
  12. I wouldn't call Price a choker. But I think he does have some significant negative baggage in his head and that it might affect him. I think it might have affected him Sunday night. How can we really know one way or the other?
  13. Oh yeah, sure thing, Mr. Touchy-Feely. We all take this competition stuff too seriously, don't we? But meanwhile you're ready to rip Aaron Boone's head off because he didn't pinch-hit for Bird last night.
  14. Come on. If you're using 2018 tiny samples, Drury was .143 vs. lefties. And he doesn't 'kill lefties'. For his career he is .773 while Bird is .793, so Bird must really kill them. You don't have much of a case.
  15. I'm not crazy about it either.
  16. I like WAR OK, but anything beyond that and my eyes glaze over too.
  17. Boone looking at Biddle's crazy reverse splits, or trying to show some confidence in Bird? I think you might actually be the biggest manager-basher here, and that's saying something on a Red Sox board LOL
  18. In Damon's worst year with the Sox he had an fWAR of 2.4. JBJ is on pace for an fWAR of about 1.4. I believe that an 'average' fWAR for 150 games is about 2. If JBJ gets his offense going a bit he could make it to 2 or 2.5
  19. I love the bunt against the shift, 100% on that.
  20. No, cp, I wasn't directing that post at you, wasn't even thinking of you. Your beef about JBJ is more like 'Stop telling me about how unlucky he is.' I was basically agreeing with moon about all the suggestions fans have for how JBJ can fix himself. I guess it's also just one of my things that I get a big laugh out of folks at home who think they know better than the players/coaches/management how to do things.
  21. Um, Severino and Scherzer, 2 Cy Young front-runners, could they possibly have had anything to do with it? Holy crap guys.
  22. Texas also beats him up, for some reason.
  23. And in 2 of those 3 starts he gave up 5 runs (in each).
