    Taylor might be back up in a hurry. He pitched a long stint so he needs rest anyway.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Wake up somnolent bats!

    Kimmi thinks we didn't really need Sale. I think that remains to be seen.

    It seems to me that when a player comes through with a big hit, say a walk-off hit in a postseason game, most fans just say, 'Wow, what a clutch hit.' If it was a guy like Ortiz who did it multiple times they'd probably add 'That Papi is some clutch hitter!'

    A player is not in the same frame of mind every at-bat, that is for certain...there are many things that can change because us human beings are fairly complex organisms. Of course, being able to identify and measure the effects of these things is problematic to say the least.

    We're only 8 games in, it's a little early to see any patterns.

    I take no pleasure in Buch getting hurt, but we were fortunate we moved him.

    Lumping other posters into one big homogenous group is never a good idea in my opinion. We're all different to some extent.

    Absolutely, people will turn on DD in a heartbeat. That's the way it goes. People turned on Epstein and Francona. It's always 'what have you done for me lately'. It's a tough gig and these guys know it.

    A very pleasant night at the ballpark.

    Well, you should have left this part out. Some nasty pre-judging apparently aimed at everyone who's trying to stay positive about the team's future.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Leon and Vazquez might turn out to be a pretty nice tandem this year.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Well, that's the key to the whole thing. If they make smart moves over the next few years we should still be in good shape.

    Fine game for him tonight. Very encouraging indeed.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Good point.
  16. Bellhorn04
    It's all about the 3 C's.

    What's really important is that a pitcher has command in the clutch.

    Watch out for mvp. It's a little-known fact, but many accountants have very twisted senses of humor and it's often hard to tell if they're being serious or not.

    I don't know why they fired Dr. Bill Morgan. He was the only Sox medical guy who ever did anything really good that I know of.
  20. Bellhorn04
    I sort of get it now...command of a curveball is being able to make the sucker curve sharply. Whereas in this context control is essentially the same thing as 'aim'...it's all sort of made-up but I can see a difference at least.

    Dombrowski came into a great situation, there's no question about that. Theo also came into a very good position after the 2002 season, inheriting a team with a 100-62 Pythagorean record. He did a great job with it, of course.
  22. Bellhorn04
    I'm not sure I follow this. We usually recognize big moments as they're happening, as far as I can tell. We know the significance of the game and the at-bat within the game. If you're talking about things like Dave Henderson's home run in Game 6 against the Mets being devalued by the fact we blew the game, I would agree that happens but a lot of fans are still able to recognize that it was still a big clutch hit for him personally...
  23. Bellhorn04
    Personally I believe he should never be forgiven for starting his Red Sox career with 2 hitless games.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I'm fine with bringing up the series in which he stunk. I think the idea that any hitter is going to be clutch all the time is obviously ridiculous. I'm just looking at the preponderance of data, myself, that's usually how we judge players.
  25. Bellhorn04
    I don't think there's any hatred for DD. Sox fans are a tough crowd no matter who the GM is.
