  1. Rafaela is staying around the .700 mark for the season. Isn't that basically what we hoped for from him? They just have to somehow persuade him that taking a walk isn't evil.
  2. Agreed on all points. But Henry and the front office have clearly demonstrated over the last 5 years that they don't care much about what we expect. Henry took it to the next level by criticizing, even mocking our expectations.
  3. Based on the plausible theory that if Clemens was with her, he was probably WITH her. If his intentions were pure he would have stayed far away from her at that age. Plus of course the fact that he's an inveterate liar.
  4. It took a while, but the subject matter of this thread has finally been corrupted in true Talksox fashion! 😃
  5. After pitching great up until July, Burnes just had a horrible August. Have to see if he turns it around in September.
  6. Estimated current franchise market values per Forbes: Dodgers 4.8 billion Red Sox 4.5 billion Yes, the Dodgers are very rich, but the Red Sox ain't exactly struggling.
  7. Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it, Mr. Henry.
  8. If you lose a game 19-18, and 2 of the runs you gave up were unearned, whose fault was the loss? These things are never that simple!
  9. Based on what? He was second in MVP voting last year. Whaddya want?
  10. Errors: Red Sox 98 Historically bad White Sox 80 MLB average 70 Unearned runs allowed Red Sox 85 Historically bad White Sox 61 MLB average 49
  11. Fielding % is not a valuable stat on its own, but it's not totally useless. The Red Sox have the most errors in MLB, the worst fielding percentage, and by far the most unearned runs allowed. A lot of fielding misplays do occur on balls hit right at the fielder or on bad throws, right? Those have nothing to do with range. Of course the fact that fielding % doesn't take any range factors into account means that other numbers have to be looked at as well.
  12. My guess would be that making fun of appearances gets a pass unless another poster or posters register a legit objection to it. It's never really been an issue here.
  13. JP Sears could be on the show too.
  14. Including yesterday's completed suspended game, the Sox have held their opponents to less than 4 runs 5 times in the last 38 games.
  15. As you might say, there's a better chance of them signing you and me than signing both Burnes and Fried.
  16. But not immediately before it. They had given us some more flickers of hope by going 4-3 against Baltimore and Houston on the road. Then the road warriors turned back into home patsies.
  17. It's a full-on implosion of the pitching staff. Starters wearing down, having shorter starts, a lot of terrible performances by relievers who have to be pulled, you reach a point that all you can do is grab another warm body and send them to the mound. It ain't pretty to watch, that's for sure.
  18. He seems to have tried to rehab it, and I guess he succeeded with some. I don't spend much mental energy thinking about him, honestly. Hell of a pitcher, hell of a liar. Just not a good guy. Respect to moon for not letting us forget about what he did to that girl.
  19. I'm picturing Sam Kennedy working on new explanations for failure, reassurances about the future, and admonishments to us entitled, whiny fans.
  20. The similarities between (or among) the 2022, 2023 and 2024 Sox seasons are pretty insane. Including the offseasons that preceded them and the trade deadlines. It's like being on a hamster wheel.
  21. "The way things are going, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of Jansen getting hurt before the game and missing his chance at history." - Eeyore.
  22. Well, all we can do is speculate, moon, so we might as well leave it there.
  23. The epic pitching meltdown of '24 marches on.
