  1. That's the kind of question that WAR numbers actually try to answer. Far from perfect but better than nothing.
  2. It's definitely a conundrum how to fit Anthony into the outfield. If you were really desperate to do it and you don't want to trade Duran or Abreu, you could platoon Duran and Rafaela in center and work from there. Rafaela could also get some starts in the IF. Duran could play left when Anthony gets a rest. Then you would need Anthony to make all the juggling worth it.
  3. We are the middest of the mid. We must be setting a record for most days at .500 in a two-season stretch.
  4. Well, we have 2 of the big 3 on the big team now, so we can certainly focus our complaining on Anthony now. 🙃
  5. And we're .500 with Crochet and Chapman pitching great. Doesn't mean we want to try playing without them.
  6. And yet I shudder a bit at the thought of our lineup right now with no Bregman and no Abreu.
  7. To me talent is kind of a fuzzy word when it comes to major league baseball. Talent only proves itself by performance, so performance is what counts. But it does seem like this team is underperforming, and I have expressed my own suspicions that something is amiss in the approaches this organization has been using the last few years.
  8. And you think these are the only fielding numbers that matter?
  9. Great name. The last Sox prospect I said I thought would succeed because he had a great name was Sam Travis.
  10. It's like the baseball gods have been having fun with us the last few years. We can't seem to assemble a roster that doesn't have a lot of missing and/or misfit pieces.
  11. Sunday-Buehler Tuesday-bullpen game?
  12. Long opener. It's a new one.
  13. Yeah, that's more like a moving the deck chairs thing.
  14. We can't really expect perfection, but they're pretty damn close.
  15. The other options are to trade for one, sign one, or try Campbell there, I guess.
  16. At this point there are multiple reasons to give up on him and very little reason for optimism. Which doesn't mean his career is over, but his value has shrunk to a very small amount. His defense is lousy, he's had serious injuries and even his plate approach seems to have deteriorated a lot.
  17. Devers PA 230 Bases empty 126 Men on 104 Bregman PA 223 Bases empty 106 Men on 117 So yeah, in this case the #3 hitter has had better opportunities than the #2 hitter.
  18. JH and company had enough of all those annoying 90+ win seasons and titles, and winners like Dombrowski and Mookie. Now it's all Science, Philosophy and .500.
  19. The Red Sox are Science-ing their way to .500 records!
  20. The second sentence isn't quite right. For the #1 slot OBP is bigger, as you say, and for the #4 slot SLG is bigger. But that doesn't really make the #4 slot 'one of the top 2' - more like 1 and 4 are T2, I think.
  21. His mandate is clearly to stay at .500, and he's killing it!
  22. That would be your point. There's nothing about that in the article. Anthony is just a 'minor leaguer'? I see you're off to a flying start this morning. 🙃
  23. Anthony is not mentioned. No idea why you posted this. mvp did get my point and responded to it.
