  1. You're a pretty good defense attorney.
  2. When you're as bad as Campbell has been, you're gonna become a whipping boy. Just ask Toro.
  3. Plus, rankings are one thing, but Breslow and his team chose these particular players because of their evaluations, and a lot depends on their judgements and on the ability of the organization to develop these guys.
  4. Maybe if it was phrased "the Red Sox could still win the trade"...
  5. You're entitled to your opinion. However. Calling Cora an idiot for not using Chapman 3 days in a row is absurd even by your standards. No one agrees with you. For some reason that fact doesn't penetrate your obtuseness. You've always been like this. I was there when you were calling Varitek Varipuke and Epstein Ineptstein and more clever ones like that. You were notorious under that old screen name and now you're getting that way again. I guess this is what you want.
  6. You know nothing about the impact of last night on Chapman's arm. You just don't understand the game. That combined with your negativity makes you irritating. SPLENDID SPLINTER is the farthest thing from a Pollyanna, the fact he can't take you any more says it all.
  7. Fred's negativity is a form of attention-seeking. He craves all this back and forth that it generates.
  8. Of course Chapman wouldn't have refused. Cora doesn't want to burn him out because if he does we're screwed. You calling for Cora to be fired for it is ridiculous yet not surprising to anyone who's familiar with you.
  9. There's no way to document it, but I think the attitude factor can't be dismissed.
  10. On the other hand, FanGraphs is showing Priester with a WAR of only 0.9. So he appears to have benefited from the ballpark and other random factors. A 0.9 WAR extrapolated to a full season is below average. Which makes it a pretty minor loss.
  11. Since the trade: Red Sox 31-20 Giants 18-33
  12. Priester pitches tonight so we'll have some fresh data.
  13. Why did you go with his last 4 starts? 3 of them were good. His last start was the bad one that hurt the numbers.
  14. With men on base he's hitting 294/322/515 = 837 OPS With RISP 289/317/511 = 828 OPS Bases empty 228/287/353 = 630 OPS
  15. You're talking about the 5 innings with Boston and the 4 innings with Worcester? There's no evidence to go on. This was basically a property flip.
  16. Maybe the first player ever to be DFAd right after a grand slam.
  17. Lowe had a grand slam and 2 walks his last game. 😀
  18. The only real difference is Lowe has some pedigree, some history of success at this level. Toro does not.
  19. And those were roids-free guns, presumably .
  20. I get it, but it's just too anecdotal IMHO. Plus the Red Sox average age is only a little below MLB average.
