I feel bad for the guy. How frustrating would it be for a pitcher to suddenly not be able to throw the ball over the plate? Hopefully life after baseball is treating him well.
-
He's also pissed from reading Talksox.
-
Yes, it's an inflexible maxim of sports fans that if there's any way a finger of blame can be pointed, it will be pointed.
-
And Pedroia has a career OBP of .366, so it's hard to argue with that approach being successful, for him at least.
-
OK, that seems fair.
-
I know one thing, if we signed Cobb for this much it would definitely be called an 'overpay'. He got more than MLBTR predicted, which was 4/48.
-
We can rattle on all we want about Hanley's option (and we will), but I'm quite sure the Sox FO and Cora have already discussed this at some length and have a sensible plan in place.
-
That is a good attitude, yes.
-
JT? JT? Bluto: 'My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.' Otter: 'Better listen to him, Flounder, he's in pre-med.'
-
It's funny how we can list all the bad things that happened last year and talk like nothing that bad could happen this year.
-
You do have a flair for hyperbole.

96-66
-
Yes.
-
So much for Alex Cobb signing for peanuts, huh?
-
Seems to me like everybody wins, once you accept that sports fans are nuts and people are suckers.
-
Pitchers certainly need some time to ramp up.
-
What if we're fighting for the division with the Yanks?
-
Health of starting pitchers could easily dictate who wins.
-
Obviously the best case scenario would be for HanRam to have a good season but not reach the vesting option. I just don't think Alex Cora should be expected to manage the team with one eye on that number if HanRam is going well.
-
I am also of the mind that if Hanley is having an excellent season, you forget the option and let the chips fall where they may. In a small window, every year is huge, and you have to take your shot when it's there.

Sox to hire Alex Cora as manager
Bellhorn04 replied to jacksonianmarch's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Believe it or not, baseball has followed in the footsteps of golf with a lot of these new measurements. In golf they started tracking swing speed, ball speed and launch angle maybe 5 years ago. -
To me it's not a question of being scared. But if you're not taking the Yankees seriously as a tough opponent this year I think you're kidding yourself.
-
I think spring training stats mean a lot more for guys like Travis and Swihart than they do for proven players.
-
Jabie Jay was great in 2016, period. 2015 and 2017 his offense was suspect for sure.
-
Holt is a decent utility player. WTF do people expect.
