Not telling you anything you don't already know, but that granny only counts for 4 ER if the pitcher who gave it up also loaded the bases...
-
The funny thing is, if they do sign an extension with Bogey, you know what the reaction of a lot of Sox fans will be... "Nice, but what about Devers?"
-
Probably. But I think he'd turn it down.
-
Exactly.
-
And as I said in an earlier post, look at the gulf between what Seager got and what Correa got. Correa was pretty much left standing in the game of musical chairs. There are only so many $300 million offers out there.
-
I'm pretty much with you, as my post #289 suggests.
-
The recent extension offer to Bogey seems to have become accepted fact as much as the Lester Lowball...
-
I hear you. The only explanation I can offer is that the time when you could keep your homegrown stars without committing to an exorbitantly large and long contract is past.
-
Agreed. No idea if they will try to keep JD or not. They'll have plenty of money and we do kind of need hitters.
-
Probably, but not guaranteed. Anybody can get injured.
-
That's the common perception, but we lived through those last place finishes in 2012, 2014 and 2015.
-
Now that's funny.
-
Whatever answer anyone gives would be a complete guess. My line has been Fire Fatse. It's mostly a joke. He was on the staff two years before this and he says they haven't really changed anything. But it does make you wonder when you see everyone except the Big 3 struggling.

Barnes and Brasier on a two-man rocket to the sun.
-
The box score is just glaring at them. 2-3-4 hitters all excellent numbers. And the rest absolutely suck.
-
The offense, what there is, is still being carried by 3 guys, 2 who are likely gone by next year, and the other who may be gone the year after. That has to be causing the front office a bit of anxiety...

Brasier and Barnes on a two-man rocket to the sun? -
This is supposed to be a serious discussion!
-
Right, but why did Seager score and Correa get left on the sidelines? Blind luck, perhaps?
-
You're assuming facts not in evidence.
-
Do you know when the Dodgers presented the offer?
-
Words are cheap. Actions are more telling. Mookie didn't have to sign an extension with the Dodgers. We all thought he was one of those guys who wanted to take the risk and get to free agency. Seems like he wanted to be in LA, does it not?
-
The only thing is, "fair market value" is a matter of opinion. There's no consistency at all in the deals guys get. Seager got $325 million. Correa, who is 5 months younger and has a higher career WAR, got $105 million (with opt-outs each year). That's a wild disparity for two similar players. It's not a rational market.

And now the score, Five to One, is a Doors' song. -
You missed the point. You're the one who said "We'll see who's right."
