Dombrowski seems to have a pretty solid history with trades.
-
Of course, the Red Sox didn't even have to trade any prospects to have a TOTR starter or two going into 2015.
-
Yes, but Ben had Pedroia.
-
As Earl Weaver once said about his Orioles, David Ortiz has crawled out of more coffins than Bela Lugosi.

Here's a good analysis on Ben's downfall by Dave Cameron. http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/just-a-bit-outside/story/boston-red-sox-general-manager-ben-cherington-downfall-hanley-ramirez-081915

I thought you were a fan of Dick O'Connell.
-
It could work out. But I sure hope the pre-season projections don't have us as the favorite again.
-
I'd be satisfied if they moved one of Hanley or Panda. I don't think anybody who thinks about it wants them to move Miley. I think most people realize it's not a realistic option to move Porcello.
-
We can talk plans and philosophies all day, but what really killed the 2015 season was simply bad moves - or moves that failed spectacularly.
-
That's yet to be seen. We do have some promising players, no question. But we're still a very bad team as presently constituted - especially the pitching staff.
-
I think they should move one of Hanley or Panda, whoever can be moved for the least cost.
-
Holt has actually gotten red hot again, with 14 hits in his last 6 games. Good to see.
-
Who would you have preferred?
-
Nice game for E-Rod.
-
Wow...the shakeup has arrived.
-
Donaldson is having a sensational year.
-
For a team with as much money and other assets as the Red Sox to put up back-to-back doormat seasons is historically enigmatic. It's hard not to think there is something deeply wrong somewhere in the organization.

2016 Red Sox Hot Stove Discussion Thread

No such luck, I'm afraid. Scott Lauber @ScottLauber Lovullo intends to play Betts, Hanley pretty much every day, which means JBJ/Castillo will rotate thru lineup, mostly in RF They are determined to mismanage the season from beginning to end. -
Baseball-Reference and FanGraphs. Those are the 2 sources of WAR numbers and most of the baseball stats out there.
-
I just checked the 2014 WAR's for our 2015 opening day rotation. Per B-R Total WAR +1.7 Average WAR +.34 Per FG Total WAR +6.4 Average WAR +1.28 So the 2014 WAR's were also pretty bad. The B-R ones were horrible in fact.
-
Ah, so FIP only measures the 'three true outcomes', right?
-
Spieth was classy. As they said on the telecast, both of these guys make excellent role models for kids.
-
Great day for golf. Jason Day wins the PGA for his first major. Canadian Brooke Henderson wins by 8 strokes for her first LPGA win.

Right on cue, there was a scorer's decision in the Jays-Yankees game that showed some of the vagaries of errors, earned runs and unearned runs. With two outs in the third and nobody on, Tulowitzki hit a routine fly ball to Beltran, but Beltran lost it in the sun and didn't catch it. It was originally scored an error. Donaldson then singled and Bautista homered. The Jays' 3 runs were unearned. But later the scorer changed the call to a hit, and the 3 runs became earned. Is that something that would be factored into the pitcher's FIP?
-
That could be, and it may also depend on which position is involved. It seems to me that most errors committed by the left side of the infield are either obvious boots or bad throws. Also it seems that where there is doubt, such as on a bad hop or an extremely hard hit ball, scorers will tend strongly toward calling those hits.
