    moon is just getting back at jackson for his statement that pitching doesn't slump.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Of course it's a prediction. How can you make a factual statement about something that hasn't happened yet?
  3. Bellhorn04
    You're being silly. A prediction is never a fact, whether it's joking or serious.
  4. Bellhorn04
    Recency is king for some.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Same.
  6. Bellhorn04
    I don't think much of it either.

    The Dodgers indirect swap of Jansen for Kimbrel at closer is not looking good right now.

    Refsnyder had a .325 OBP in 157 PA's for Minny last year. Could be a nice little scrap heap pickup by Bloom.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Yes, that is an adage, which is sometimes true, and sometimes utter nonsense LOL

    Only here. At Talksox we see no reason you can't trade junk for jewels.

    Rob Replacementplayer!

    You'll hear every idea at least once here. It's how we roll!

    Jackson, man, you've been a baseball fan too long to say that.
  14. Bellhorn04
    And regardless of the Wild Card race, that made me happy.

    That was nutty having 6-1 leads in the 9th twice and nearly blowing them. Houck may have just gotten his baptism by fire as a closer, though.
  16. Bellhorn04
    AFAIK, Weber did an emergency fill-in and was promptly DFA'd. A lot of these middle-of-the-road pitchers have ups and downs that are hard to predict. Bloom's acquisitions of Pivetta and Wacha are looking pretty damn good right now.

    Nobody could have seen Perez's 2022 season coming. Springs has been good. Mazza hasn't done much.

    Let's do 2018-2021 and throw in Ottavino, who is about the same age: Diekman 197.1 IP 2.0 fWAR got 2 years $8 mill McHugh 211.0 IP 3.7 fWAR 2 years $10 mill Ottavino 224.1 IP 3.9 fWAR 1 year $4 mill McHugh and Ottavino were both more than 50% better. I just don't see what Bloom actually liked about Diekman.

    This tangent started with moon asking why Curry gets gushed over. LeBron is a huge star and one of the best ever to play. But I think his image has been tarnished in recent years by all his team-jumping and a pretty bad case of foot in mouth disease.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Diekman had an fWAR of -0.1 last year and -0.5 this year. He might have been good once, but he's not now.
  21. Bellhorn04
    I have no answers on Houck/Whitlock. It does seem pretty obvious they were making it up on the fly. It wouldn't be such an issue if guys like Barnes and Robles hadn't been so bad, of course.
  22. Bellhorn04
    As I said, it was off-the-cuff. I disagree about Bird and Duncan though. Bird had the image of being Mr. Cool and Mr. Clutch, a guy you did not want to have the last shot against you. And he was the best 3 point shooter in the game for a while there.
  23. Bellhorn04
    No, I'm not really saying the results would be much different. Just that it was a perplexing move.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Diekman has the worst FIP and the worst WHIP on the staff. I'd say his ERA is very lucky. McHugh's FIP is half of Diekman's.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Good question.
