  1. Before this season nobody really knew who was going to get most of the starts, but I think the general assumption was that it would be McGuire.
  2. Opinions change over time. Heck, I thought the Yankees trade for Donaldson and IKF was a good one. Shows you how wrong you can be.
  3. Yes, we're a fickle lot. Go Jarren baby!
  4. Whether you care about the CERA thing or not, it's pretty interesting to see how Cora and the team are gradually trying to figure out the best catching configuration, IMO.
  5. Now now, I'm trying to dial it back here, and get behind Reese a little...
  6. Ah yes, Wins Above Felipe Lopez. The things I remember...
  7. Kluber having a good game with McGuire catching is definitely a good sign.
  8. God, now we're gonna need Wind-Adjusted FIP...
  9. But a 2.93 FIP! When a FIP collides with a BABIP, who wins?
  10. They knew his reinstatement was a possibility.
  11. No, Strahm said he was going to transition to being a starter before the offseason.
  12. I don't think anyone actually said that.
  13. The Dodgers cut payroll this year but not enough to re-set. The Mets can't re-set next year even if they wanted to. The Yankees and others may be in that position too. We've entered a new phase where the real big spenders have stopped being hung up on re-setting.
  14. And his contract was reasonable.
  15. Matt Strahm could have been a nice budget signing as a starter. Ironically signed by none other than the Desperate One.
  16. Bloom is correct that it's very early. Those who say every game count are also correct. Yours truly, Mr. Objective
  17. They definitely seem to be playing the "wait till next year" game.
  18. Why? We're playing like 20 days in a row and Cora is trying to keep guys like Winckowski from having their arms fall off... Seems like sensible managing to me. It's not Cora's fault our rotation stinks.
  19. It's a pretty technical point, then. It doesn't have anything to do with the kind of quantum leap seen in Cole's contract with the Yankees, or with what Ohtani will get.
  20. According to Forbes, the Red Sox had an operating profit of $71.6 million for 2022, and the current market value of the franchise is about $4.5 billion, which is #3 after the Yankees and Dodgers.
  21. Can't complain about the Devers extension, that's for sure, IMHO. But you're overplaying the $650 million, for the reasons already mentioned.
  22. Ifs and buts = candy and nuts. I do get your point, but the other side of the argument has a point too.
