    desperate dave!

    Your outlook is much more linear than mine. I believe there's much too much chaos to think linear all the time. And we look like a team that might be getting hot at the right time. That said, I do believe the Phils feel more urgency because of their massive payroll and key players getting older etc.
  3. Bellhorn04
    That idea has probably been discussed in the Sox offices.
  4. Bellhorn04
    And Campbell will probably get a shot at first pretty soon.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Boy, you really made your second post in 2.5 months count! 🤣
  6. Bellhorn04
    I think we all would like a starting pitcher.
  7. Bellhorn04
    They're actually not that far apart, excluding the 'urgency' factor. Philly is 3 games ahead of us in the overall standings. We have a better run differential.
  8. Bellhorn04
    They went 17-7 in July with a run differential of +51. Maybe Cora is doing something right.

    Max must have been thinking of Site Manager Brandon Glick.
  10. Bellhorn04
    He's been better than that, moon. He has a higher fWAR than any Sox reliever except Chapman.
  11. Bellhorn04
    We're averaging 4.88 runs right now so there's something wrong with your numbers. We're 4th in MLB in runs per game, I'm pretty sure that's the highest we've been. You'd also have to look at the pitching we've been facing to analyze it properly. You're not making much of a case.
  12. Bellhorn04
    20% is fair.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Well, some people did consider trading Devers a white flag, I realize that. The difference is we have a bunch of hitters who are doing well and have made up for the loss of Devers. Bregman, Duran, Rafaela, Abreu, Anthony, Story, Narvaez, Ref & Romy. We do not have a bunch of guys who can make up for losing Chapman. This is pretty obvious stuff.
  14. Bellhorn04
    We may not be clearly better but we are very competitive with those other AL teams. I think you're pretty close to conceding that we have a decent chance at the pennant.
  15. Bellhorn04
    And we could easily eliminate them too. You are way overrating these other AL teams.
  16. Bellhorn04
    How about that 5 for 3 trade I mentioned? I'd like to hear your response to that. Forget about the closer thing. Chapman is a great reliever. And Cora has been using him prior to the 9th when the situation warrants it.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Which AL teams are you so scared of?
  18. Bellhorn04
    Thank you for bringing some actual insight to the matter.
  19. Bellhorn04
    And you know better than to compare the WAR of an everyday player to that of a reliever who pitches 60 innings or so. Chapman, Whitlock, Weissert, J Wilson and Bernardino have a combined bWAR of 4.2. Trading them for 3 everyday players with a total bWAR of 4.3 would not be smart.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Nobody can stop either of us. 😄
  21. Bellhorn04
    You know the reason. Trading Devers was a big deal for the franchise.
  22. Bellhorn04
    So wouldn't he have postseason value for the Sox?
  23. Bellhorn04
    Deeply flawed, yes.
  24. Bellhorn04
    It's not happening because it's wacko. 😄
  25. Bellhorn04
    Bad parallel IMHO. They only traded Devers because of attitude issues. Chapman's attitude has been superb.
