    It would be pretty brutal if they don't keep any of the big 4-Bogey, Devers, JDM and Eovaldi. Bloom might be fine with it, but Henry and Werner have always had a bit of an eye on the PR part of the equation.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Eovaldi, Bogey and JDM seem pretty juvenated, no?

    Story has had a few things to contend with mentally. He went from being the shortstop for Colorado to the second baseman for the Red Sox. And I'm sure he's not unaware of the hue and cry about Bogey's contract situation. And then he gets off to a rough start.
  4. Bellhorn04
    And Semien signs a huge contract and is off to a terrible start in 2022. It's a funny game.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Oh, I'd say they are.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Bashing Bradley is more about bashing Bloom for the trade and the fact we're paying him $12 million.
  7. Bellhorn04
    That's something that's not necessarily Cora's decision. Whitlock is obviously a very important guy to the team and they have a plan on how to use him and develop him. The fact we don't have an obvious closer (given Barnes's uncertain status) was Bloom's call.
  8. Bellhorn04
    The other teams' pitching has been a problem.
  9. Bellhorn04
    How does that xBA compare to his 2021 number?
  10. Bellhorn04
    There's something desperately wrong with the hitting approach. Is it Fatse? I have no idea, but I've never seen such sustained futility. Dalbec looks like permanent toast, I fear. And Bradley is getting close as well.

    Alex Speier sums up the horrorshow rather eloquently April’s grim conclusion arrived in familiar fashion for the Red Sox. The season’s dizzying first month was characterized primarily by a woeful offense that scored two or fewer runs 10 times in 22 contests. That offensive outage, in turn, placed immense pressure on a pitching staff whose formless bullpen often toppled in narrow defeats. Those elements were on display Saturday night at Camden Yards, where the Sox wasted a brilliant performance by starter Nate Eovaldi in a dispiriting 2-1, walkoff loss to the Orioles that concluded a 9-13 month of April that included an 0-4 record in extra-inning games and a 3-6 mark in one-run contests.

    Red...this is disappointing.
  13. Bellhorn04
    But for pitching fWAR they use FIP.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Thunder Mojo.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Seems a bit primitive.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Fangraphs says he has a -0.1 WAR this year, after a -1.5 WAR last year. Don't they take all that stuff into account?
  17. Bellhorn04
    When Hill pitches well he's a "crafty old southpaw". When he pitches badly he's an "aging junkballer".
  18. Bellhorn04
    The difference being that JBJ had the sub .500 OPS last year, so there are legit reasons to be concerned that he's not going to bounce back. Dalbec is on thin ice too.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Yes, but a continued sub .500 OPS would be a problem.
  20. Bellhorn04
    I'd call it "hopeful theorizing".
  21. Bellhorn04
    Funny game, ain't it?
  22. Bellhorn04
    Everybody knows about Story's home/road splits. What's not publicized as much is that Bogaerts's road OPS is .756. So that would be "not good" in your books too, right? Edit Ha, talk about getting beat to the punch!
  23. Bellhorn04
    Cool! Gotta like guys like that.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Mark Grace
  25. Bellhorn04
    You're making way too much out of small samples. In his last 11 games, Suzuki has a .611 OPS and no homers. It can take a little while for pitchers to adjust to hitters they've never seen before and figure out their weak spots. It's a long season.
