  1. I'd like to see some more information on the pitch calling thing. I know there's plenty of game planning now, but I'm dubious about the idea that every single pitch call comes from the dugout or upstairs. Also, we still see pitchers shaking off pitch calls, so they would seem to have the ultimate say...
  2. Some call him a pitcher whisperer.
  3. I missed where it said Rafaela is a much better SS.
  4. Quibble on, mighty prospect rankers!
  5. He didn't say it would be the top priority, though.
  6. So moon made me look up the CERA spreads for Sale, Price, Porcello and Eovaldi. Sale With Leon 435.2 IP 2.79 ERA .578 OPSa With Vaz 132.1 IP 4.08 ERA .752 OPSa Price With Leon 203.2 IP 2.96 ERA .647 OPSa With Vaz 360.1 IP 4.27 ERA .738 OPSa Porcello With Leon 576.1 IP 4.19 ERA .728 OPSa With Vaz 210.2 IP 4.96 ERA .794 OPSa Eovaldi With Plawecki 183.1 IP 3.39 ERA .684 OPSa With Vaz 176.1 IP 4.64 ERA .789 OPSa Sure there's some statistical noise in there, but the differences are big enough that IMO, it would be incredibly dumb to dismiss them.
  7. If there was a way to bring him back for one more year I'd certainly be in favor.
  8. The only meaningful judge of the value of CERA factors is the teams. I was actually surprised when the Sox let Leon go.
  9. Might be interesting to see his offensive numbers when he pitches vs. when he doesn't.
  10. Just to confirm they've been harmed and take pleasure in it, I guess.
  11. Check out the Yankees and Rays injuries this year.
  12. Now Chaim has everyone right where he wants them.
  13. Last kick at the cat with Ohtani.
  14. No team is.
  15. I never said our chances were good. I just understood not selling off when you're 3 games out and have guys coming back.
  16. Paxton said Wong called the game.
  17. There was a time it was unheard of for teams in contention to even think about trading players who are doing well at the deadline. I'm not sure that has changed, actually. There aren't many examples. I don't think Vaz is a great example because last year's team had shaky playoff prospects at best.
  18. What about game-calling? That's kind of an X factor. There was a game after which Paxton highly praised Wong's game-calling.
  19. Duvall has plenty of value to our team as a right-handed power bat and outfielder.
  20. I think some team would gladly take him, just wouldn't give much back.
  21. We are definitely going for it. 15-5 in our last 20 games.
  22. It's pretty hard to knock Bloom's approach at this point in time. IMO there's no way he trades Paxton, or Duvall.
