    They're trying to find something that fixes some important calls without totally offending the purists. The test run indicated that it shouldn't be overly time-consuming. Let's see how it works.
  2. Bellhorn04
    If it ended after last night the Sox, Tigers and Guardians are in and the Stros are out.
  3. Bellhorn04
    So they need to win 3 more games than us.
  4. Bellhorn04
    The question is why you keep calling the 2025 team FLOPS when they haven't flopped yet. And there's no possible intelligent answer to that question.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I see no similarity between the umpiring profession and the medical profession. We don't need more umpires. And the umpires we have are generally good. But calling balls and strikes 100% accurately is impossible and this gives everyone a chance to fix a few calls every game.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Excellent news.

    And they traded Devers in the middle of June, so they had a lot of time in which they knew they were down a big bat. They might have been held up by the simple question of whether they were actually a legit playoff contender or not.
  8. Bellhorn04
    All I can really say is I do think the front office is out of kicking the can down the road mode.
  9. Bellhorn04
    It would be great but I don't know how much pressure it would remove. Depends on what other teams do of course.
  10. Bellhorn04
    I understand trading Devers, but like you say, trading him and doing nothing to replace his offense is the questionable part.
  11. Bellhorn04
    It's just very unusual for a team with playoff aspirations to trade a starting pitcher early in the season for prospects. I can't remember very many instances of it. I don't really remember a trade like this ever, in fact.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Agreed. But man, Priester is 13-2 with a 3.25 ERA and will pitch about 160 innings. This is not a feather in Brez's cap. And Sox fans are getting tired of the Longview stuff.
  13. Bellhorn04
    No, more like I'm afraid you may be right.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Major ouch on that last paragraph.
  15. Bellhorn04
    If the Sox miss the playoffs again Breslow may not be around to see any benefits of the trade. It was a very risky thing for him to do IMHO.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Not sure about counting Mayer, he's still an unknown quantity. The loss of the other two at the same time is huge. I think if there's a criticism it's that he subtracted a big bat and didn't do anything to replace that bat.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Don't let him drag you into his negative rabbit hole!
  18. Bellhorn04
    I'm right behind you, I'll be 70 in January.

    They probably have as good a chance of making it to the Series as any team in the AL.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Grissom is a goner. Hamster I'm not sure about, he manages to stick around and he has flashes of being a decent player. He has a 3.5 bWAR in less than a full season's play. His back of the card offensive numbers stink, that is for sure.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Now who would do that? 😉
  22. Bellhorn04
    Craig needs a sign on his wall that reads: "DO NOT TRADE STARTING PITCHERS EVER AGAIN."
  23. Bellhorn04
    A lot of people wanted a first base bat to replace Toro for quite a while. The fact is they lost a huge bat in Devers and did next to nothing about it.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, note to Craig: don't ever f'ing trade away a starting pitcher again, it's not your strong point!
  25. Bellhorn04
    Hate to say it but if the Sox miss the playoffs Craig is going to take a ton of heat for not doing more for the offense after trading Devers. We ended up in a position of counting on Anthony a bit too much and then we got a bad break.
