    Fred's negativity is a form of attention-seeking. He craves all this back and forth that it generates.
  2. Bellhorn04
    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.
  3. Bellhorn04
    That's way too much nuance for Fred.
  4. Bellhorn04
    1.0 fWAR is a pretty low bar, mind you.
  5. Bellhorn04
    There's no way to document it, but I think the attitude factor can't be dismissed.
  6. Bellhorn04
    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.

    If the Sox make the playoffs this trade looks fine.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Since the trade: Red Sox 31-20 Giants 18-33

    Priester pitches tonight so we'll have some fresh data.
  10. Bellhorn04
    So his luck has been a lot better with Narvaez catching.
  11. Bellhorn04
    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.
  12. Bellhorn04
    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

    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.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Maybe the first player ever to be DFAd right after a grand slam.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Lowe had a grand slam and 2 walks his last game. 😀
  16. Bellhorn04
    The only real difference is Lowe has some pedigree, some history of success at this level. Toro does not.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Because Toro has become a Man of Constant Sorrow with the bat.
  18. Bellhorn04
    And those were roids-free guns, presumably .
  19. Bellhorn04
    I get it, but it's just too anecdotal IMHO. Plus the Red Sox average age is only a little below MLB average.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Generally speaking when a team is losing a lot of one-run games the finger gets pointed at the manager. Personally I think too much of it is randomness to draw any conclusions one way or the other.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Well, it's an interesting take, but the 'street-smart' premise seems a little dubious to me.
  22. Bellhorn04
    It's unpinned now.
  23. Bellhorn04
    I think they just wanted Bernardino to get a bit of a rest.
  24. Bellhorn04
    That's a pretty small tweak though. Personally I've never seen any explanation for why Pythagorean record even matters. Maybe early in the season it might tell you something. But we've seen teams with big variances sustained over entire seasons, so what does it matter?
  25. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, in baseball I think Pythagoras is pretty much wiped out by Random-ass.
