  1. How about the "tackle box"? You'll have to look it up to find out what that means.
  2. 31% of "local net revenues", that is. Requires a bit of a dig to see how that's calculated, I think.
  3. No, I don't think that really happens.
  4. 1.3 fWAR 0.4 bWAR In the world of analytics, the discrepancies between fWAR and bWAR for pitchers really stand out.
  5. It's natural to wonder that.
  6. Theo Epstein was an analytics nerd. Won two titles with the Red Sox. Some call him the greatest GM of all time. But Airheads say nerds are bad.
  7. I'd go with okay.
  8. Utilizing some of the prospect capital to trade for a starter does make a lot of sense.
  9. Keep Wacha, sign Syndergaard and at least two relievers, and pray like hell Sale comes back? Just a guess I'm throwing out there.
  10. Some grumpy Yankee fans think West Coast teams are also in the picture.
  11. I imagine it has been giving Hal and Brian a headache or two.
  12. And that the Yankees made their offer public was kind of interesting.
  13. I've been meaning to reply to this post. This does seem like something to watch for.
  14. It's not a knock on Judge, every team would want to have him if they could truly afford it. We have too many other "fish to fry".
  15. I'm not trying to be a jerk either, but we could sign Judge to a 300 million contract, and he could get injured (he's been injured plenty in the past), and the contract could be another albatross. As for Kike, I'm not really sure he should have repeated that. Furthermore, I think that coming off an injury-plagued season with bad offensive numbers, $10 million alone should have been enough to convince him to stay. Having gotten that snark out of my system, all I can say about Bloom and 2023 is that my expectations are very high too. The key to improvement will be mostly pitching.
  16. They're your updates now, man.
  17. Well, you are keeping track of how many games under .500 we are, so I assume that means something to you in itself.
  18. Which managers are special though, 700? Based on your previous comments, you pretty much think all managers are bozos.
  19. Lots of made up stuff here. moon is the only one who said Cora was the greatest manager in Sox history. And Bloom has been getting plenty of blame for this year, even from guys like moon, who has never let up about the Bradley trade. You're way too selective with what you read and remember.
  20. Some say that in baseball the defense is the offense, because they're the ones who initiate the play, who know what the pitch will be etc. (Frankly I'm just arguing for the sake of it.)
  21. If Cora was being brutally honest he would have said "Look, we're not making the playoffs, and we're trying to find out if this guy is worth keeping for next year."
  22. It was the 6th inning. I guess you're saying we should have used a Relief Ace.
  23. He's pitched 21 major league innings. In the 4 outings before last night he didn't give up any runs.
  24. I think Cora's explanation for using Ort there makes sense. Now if we were 1 game out of a playoff spot and not 10, the same answer wouldn't make sense.
  25. You have a point there. But football offenses have a lot of rules about alignments. The differentiation between offense and defense is kind of an arbitrary one.
