  1. JBJ's WAR is 0.2, so that must be coming from Beni's games in CF.
  2. I'm pretty sure DD will at least inquire about Jed Lowrie.
  3. A pretty high percentage of hits are on mistakes, aren't they? Or as they are now called in postgame interviews, pitches that 'grabbed a little bit too much plate'.
  4. Yes and no. The career W-L records of Ryan and Blyleven more than anything highlight that they pitched great for some very bad teams. Ryan's 1987 season (8-16, 2.76 ERA) is probably the all-time howler when it comes to W-L.
  5. It was Scott's first MLB game this year, but he has MLB experience and excellent numbers against lefties (.522 OPS). And he was pitching very well at Pawtucket.
  6. Scott was brought in to face the #9 hitter and then 2 lefty hitters. Cora said 'these are the situations he's here for' or similar words. Scott did a lousy job, obviously. Maybe you could chalk it up as a managerial mistake, but there was some reasoning behind it.
  7. Sale got better than average run support in 2017. This is good old buzzard luck/randomness at its finest. But it does get a little frustrating, that's for sure.
  8. This post makes no sense. Sale had a no-decision whoever Cora brought in.
  9. Of all people, Dave D. is the last one who would do this. One of the big knocks on his Detroit years and the lack of playoff success was his bullpens.
  10. Yes, they were probably all lying.
  11. 3 periods. Like notin finishes just about every one of his posts...
  12. I read some of those comments from other baseball people expressing surprise about the move. What struck me, though, was that none of them made any mention of the vesting option. It was hard to tell if they were even aware of it. And if they were aware of it, why wouldn't that factor into how they viewed the move?
  13. I still have to do my baseball philosophy thread. I'm just not sure what sort of reactions it will get LOL
  14. I think he means because no GM has signed him yet.
  15. I don't think there's any reason to look back. We'll never know what he would have done had he stayed with us but I'm skeptical it would have been good. I suspect he's quite a bit more relaxed where he is now. There's not the same kind of pressure because he's a virtual freebie for the Giants and whatever he gives them is like a bonus. We're paying the bill.
  16. How about 2017 from the time we cut Pablo?
  17. Sanchez is not far off being a sophomore himself, with about 175 MLB games played entering this season.
  18. Well, it helps if you're a big believer in randomness.
  19. I do believe you're right.
  20. It's the kind of s*** that happens in this game. If you expect everything to live up to expectations you're not really paying attention to how MLB goes.
