  1. To Rick Porcello: It's so simple, fellow When ya keep the ball low The wins will follow
  2. JDM could also be FA if he opts out.
  3. Pete Abe sez only 'Still no Betts'. That means no one knows.
  4. Where the heck did you get these numbers? They must be someone else's. For one thing Holt only has 286 innings at SS.
  5. Yes, I think Francona was talking about Crawford and maybe A-Gon.
  6. I think you have to be pretty patient with a guy who now has an .899 OPS in spite of the issues with lefties.
  7. It can't really be an A with the sanctions and the $73 million tossed on Castillo. B or B+.
  8. The numbers suggest Holt is pretty close to average on defense overall.
  9. B-R has an additional split which is kind of interesting. It shows the hitter's numbers for games started by a LH or RH pitcher. Meaning that it also includes any PA's against relievers of the other handedness in that game. In games started by a lefty this year Beni has an OPS of .756 - not great but not horrible. One could argue that this just means you don't bring him into those games unless there's an RH reliever. But it's not always such a simple matter to pinch hit as you please during a game.
  10. Maybe. It would also make the 'coffee boy' comments ring a little truer. If Ben was being used like that he should have said something-borrowed Theo's gorilla suit or whatever. Not just skulked away.
  11. I think Beni will hit lefties OK as the sample gets longer.
  12. I don't think that's answer enough for Red Sox media and fans. They would insist on a little further explanation. Belichick might be able to get away with it.
  13. My 21-year old daughter is a big basketball fan and she has been convinced for years that some NBA games are fixed. So that's pretty sad.
  14. Let's assume the truth is that the vesting option played a major role in the move. Do you think the Sox should have said so?
  15. There are some positive signs with the bat. I think he's going to be okay.
  16. I get what you guys are saying, but the Rockets 3-point shooting doomed them as well. 7 for 44 overall, and an incredibly bad 1 for 21 in the second half. That is some epic bricklaying for one of the best teams in the NBA.
  17. Forget it. Cliff is a permanent ban walking.
  18. You'll find out on Larry's death bed, if then. The Sox FO has followed the practice of Omerta since Henry's group bought the team.
  19. Cliff is Pike, 110% guaranteed. I think he even used a name similar to this one before.
  20. But if it wasn't for the vesting option they probably would have hung onto him a while longer. The vesting option ends up hurting Hanley too. It's a lose-lose.
  21. I don't really have a problem with the baseball system and all the guaranteed money, in spite of how much of it the Sox have had to eat. You pays your money and you takes your chances. If you make a bad choice or an unlucky one, it hurts you.
  22. Yeah, but you're on record that we'll be lucky to win 86 games, so you've got no credibility anyway.
  23. The vesting option is clearly a non-guaranteed, contingent benefit.
