    Personally I have my eye on an autographed Roman Anthony baseball selling on the Red Sox MLB site. It's $180 US, to get it in my door here in Canada, after exchange and duties and whatnot, is probably close to $300 LOL.

    The bar for good fanning is pretty low. Nothing that happens on a fan forum like this one does any harm to anyone. Ripping a baseball out of Mookie Betts's glove, or issuing death threats because you didn't win your prop bet, is a different story.

    Just making the playoffs will be a success IMHO. And needless to say that's not guaranteed yet.
  4. Bellhorn04
    Bregman?
  5. Bellhorn04
    Yoshida is showing signs, isn't he? The last 4 games he has 5 hits and 2 walks. I don't have an enormous amount of faith in him either, but I think there's sound reasoning behind what they're doing.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Just a little more faith in Yoshida because he has a track record. Romy could improve against righties, sure. Campbell and Garcia have no track records so I can't see turning to them now. We'll see them again in 2026.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, not a great post by me. One of my all fired up posts.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Yoshida .674. Pretty small differences here, and Yoshida's sample size is still small enough that his OPS jumped 45 points last night. Still not sure why you have so little faith in his ability to hit righties.
  9. Bellhorn04
    That was me that said 2 weeks as a guess, and it was just a few days ago, actually. But like I said, the real answer to that question is that it's up to management to figure out. They are looking at all kinds of things that we don't even know about. And we know that they are not really averse to jettisoning guys...
  10. Bellhorn04
    He's not starting against lefties. Should be compared to the other options against righties.
  11. Bellhorn04
    SF has a "pitcher's park" Park Factor in the low 90s though.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Yes. But the parallels with the Nomar trade are pretty strong to this point. It felt like a cloud was lifted when Devers was traded. Not that he's a terrible guy, but the situation was so uncomfortable that it just always seemed to be lurking there as an unhelpful distraction and you didn't know if there was more bad stuff yet to come.
  13. Bellhorn04
    I'll stick with the opinions of Cora and the rest of management over the armchair versions. I think the real ones have done an excellent job this year.
  14. Bellhorn04
    New leadoff hitters are probably a platoon of Duran and Eaton.
  15. Bellhorn04
    I'm surprised you bailed on Yoshida so fast. He proved he can hit 800 against righties over 2 seasons. Positive regression was virtually inevitable. How long should the leash be? That's up to Cora and Breslow and the hitting coaches. They have vastly more data and knowledge than us.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Nah, we have Fred and we have other raggers to look after all that. You're supposed to be one of the reasonable ones.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Campbell had 263 PAs and Yoshida has had 128, after a long layoff.
  18. Bellhorn04
    And very fitting that it happened to the all-time roid king.
  19. Bellhorn04
    There's still a reasonable chance for some positive regression by Yoshida. He was over .800 against eighties in 2023-2024 combined.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Yoshida does have a better track record. What exactly makes you think Garcia or Campbell can hit right handed major league pitching right now?
  21. Bellhorn04
    What MLB team would you say exemplifies this approach?
  22. Bellhorn04
    Not liking the results?
  23. Bellhorn04
    But signing Bregman seems like it was a very long way from a sure thing, especially since the total guaranteed money was significantly less than other offers he got. As with many things concerning the Sox behind the scenes doings, we'll never really know.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I know. For some reason Fenway seems to foil the spray charts.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Fenway fools everyone again!
