  1. I agree with Kimmi. It's good to have a veteran catcher on the team.
  2. mvp's post was pure mockery.
  3. That's what I always thought too.
  4. When you give up 5 hits and 4 walks in 6 innings you deserve to give up 3-4 runs. You usually will.
  5. No doubt, but it'd be someone we'd have to pay a lot more than $519 K so our payroll would be even more bloated.
  6. Certainly seems possible. And maybe it's a true 'win now' philosophy - they think Swihart might be our best option for left field for the 2016 season.
  7. Who in the Sox FO is whining?
  8. No one wants to trade any of them, but there seems to be consensus that to acquire a cost-controlled #1 pitcher we probably have to give up one of them.
  9. Quality Start % is more meaningful. Buch is only .333 in that department.
  10. I think the Quality Start stat still has validity. It's true that overall run scoring has gone down. But on the other hand innings pitched by starters also keep going down as it becomes more and more of a bullpen game. If the starter goes 6 innings and gives up 3 earned runs or less he is giving you a reasonable chance to win. You could tinker with it of course but what's the point. We already have the 'High Quality Start' which is 7 IP and 2 ER or less. And now we have the Bill James 'Game Score' as well.
  11. Before that 1-2-3 inning by Kimbrel opponents were hitting .103 against him this year.
  12. What is Ortiz trying to do, have the greatest season of his career?
  13. In that last start Buchholz gave up 3 ER in 6 IP so he gets a bare minimum Quality Start. But he gave up 9 baserunners for a 1.5 WHIP, which is right on his overall WHIP for the year. So it wasn't a good start, no. He has to do better and soon.
  14. That was nasty. Pitchers are such sitting ducks out there.
  15. Or the Giants, especially now that Cain seems to be healthy.
  16. First of all we know that the Red Sox wanted him. Secondly we don't know squat about what other teams have shown interest.
  17. In 34 plate appearances - about 8 full games. In the regular season he had a .684 OPS in 50 plate appearances. Both tiny samples.
  18. Anything can happen in a short series between 2 very good teams.
  19. Remy had a good day yesterday. First he was all over Uribe for not at least attempting the inning-ending double play - a mistake that led to 5 more Sox runs. Then he called for the grand slam by Mookie.
  20. Yardwork can be incredibly time-consuming.
  21. As in Betts or Bradley plus, right?
  22. Here are his last 4 months: Aug/15 1.163 Sept/15 .739 Apr/16 .807 May/16 1.300 That's 2 ridiculous months, 1 good month and 1 average month.
  23. Bradley is having a sick month.
  24. I played golf today. We'll never have a better day than today here all year.
