    One of the main reasons I like Holt is that I'm very fond of cheap controlled assets that are productive...they are what is making this team a success in spite of some bloated contracts that are producing little or nothing.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Nothing. But they invested 13 million in Young to hit lefties. My belief is we're already at least average in left and we should be above average if Young hits lefties like he should. And offense is not our area of need. If we're going to upgrade it should be about pitching.

    Gotta like the Sox having an Irish pitcher with an acronym of SOS.

    Owens posted a 2.11 WHIP in his 3 starts so he didn't exactly set the bar sky-high.

    OPS is as much as the average fan can handle. Once the stats start looking like chemistry equations, I'm outa there.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Just to be clear, a .725 is about exactly average for a left fielder these days.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Yes, I get that, but it's not exactly an extensive history either...
  8. Bellhorn04
    Right, but the point here was about closers performing worse in tie situations.
  9. Bellhorn04
    We certainly have more grounds for confidence that Price will be fine. But a couple more 6 or 7 run outings and we'll all have good reason to worry.

    I'm surprised you don't find 100 points of OPS over a career significant. How much would it take to be a significant difference?

    Maybe a mental thing, but not really a psychological thing. I was talking about things that affect a player involuntarily, that they can't control. Like Lester's thing about not being able to throw to first base. That's psychological. Trying is something you control.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Not really. I think it's considered to be more of a psychological thing.
  14. Bellhorn04
    What's wrong with Holt?
  15. Bellhorn04
    Yes, hopefully they were joke boos. Like the fake cheers players get sometimes when they finally do something right.
  16. Bellhorn04
    It's been argued that it should be something like 60% OBP and 40% SLG. I've wondered why they don't give the average of the two instead of adding them together. It seems weird that a seemingly big number like .550 is a HORRIBLE OPS.

    JBJ is en fuego again.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I'd just as soon have some more tonight.

    Inferences are often well founded, but they are far from infallible. Many an innocent man has been put to death.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Except when an ump does him wrong.
  21. Bellhorn04
    He's swinging the bat incredibly well. I don't know about this retirement thing.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Betts, Bogaerts, Bradley, Shaw, and Vazquez are looking pretty good to me right now.
  23. Bellhorn04
    I don't know man. Some people might infer from your posting barrages that you are a nutjob. But we know that's not the case.
  24. Bellhorn04
    De Aza is off to a crappy start too. I think we're fine with Holt and Young. If you can win a World Series with a platoon of Nava and Gomes, I think the one we have now is good enough.

    One of my favorite Ortiz moments came in the 2004 ALCS, not in Game 4 or 5 but in the first inning of Game 7. With Damon on 2nd and 1 out, Manny singled, but Damon got thrown out at the plate. It was one of those 'oh no, here we go' moments for Sox fans, and the Yankee fans were whooping it up in the stands. Up steps Ortiz and on the first pitch he smokes one into the right field seats and quickly wipes the smile off all the Yankee fans' faces.
