  1. I think sometimes these huge free agent deals are the best things for a player's bank account but the worst things for their careers.
  2. Their rotation will tell the tale.
  3. It's a long, long season.
  4. There is not one sliver of good in Pablo's numbers. He has a bWAR of minus .9 in only 32 games. That extrapolates to a bWAR of minus 4.5 in 160 games, which I'm guessing might be a contender for the worst bWAR in history.
  5. You were advocating trading Pedroia at the start of the 2016 season, when he was 32 years, 8 months. At the start of the 2008 season Ortiz was 32 years, 5 months. 3 months difference.
  6. And the best part is, we're doing it with no fire! (Sorry.)
  7. Besides which, Barnes served his suspension, he's back and pitching pretty well, everybody moved on from it...it's old news.
  8. Just a bad signing. The Red Sox have enough money that they can handle it. Move on and be done with it. I expect he'll be released shortly.
  9. Trading Pedroia at the start of last year was not a good call. Another team would have gotten a 5.7 WAR player for a bargain price.
  10. And how many times have you written him off in the past? Last year you had Trade Pedroia in your sig line and he ended up with a 5.7 WAR. You'll be right eventually, of course.
  11. Is the season over already? Bummer.
  12. You are really on top of your posting game these days, Max.
  13. Their starter has a bit more of a major league pedigree than Velazquez. It was a debatable move, but I don't blame Farrell for not having a world of confidence in Velazquez.
  14. Farrell pulled Velazquez for Abad with Hosmer and Moustakas coming up. Hosmer had already homered. Abad didn't do his job but it seemed like the right move.
  15. That's about right and it's good enough for me.
  16. He'll do something pretty soon, but it just might be the promotion of Devers.
  17. There are separate stats for 'inherited runners' allowed to score.
  18. I think because Henry wanted to stay under the luxury tax threshold.
  19. If that's the way you see it that's fine. Personally I think that because a team is doing well as a whole doesn't mean every part of it is performing.
  20. This is a little surprising but it makes sense when you consider that it's not a home run park and home run rates have been soaring, probably because of a juiced ball mandated by Manfred.
  21. It's all relative to what other teams are doing. We're at 4.65 runs per game, which is major league average, but since we play in a hitter's park we're actually below average. That's reflected in our OPS+ of 95. I'd say we're underperforming by .5 runs per game below expectations.
  22. Just for the sake of discussion, how exactly is Showalter a micro manager?
  23. Our offense has been mediocre and our pitching has been excellent. Does that mean the offense has been doing its job? It was expected to be better than mediocre.
  24. No, the 2 years are 2017/2018.
