  1. Let's try this instead: In 2024 he pitched 46.2 IP, which was his highest since 2018. In 2025 he's pitched 24.0 IP, which puts him on pace for over 50. He's not being underused in relation to his career history.
  2. Position player fWARs: NY has 7 at 1.3 or higher 5.9/1.8/1.7/1.6/1.6/1.4/1.3 Bos has 6 at 1.2 or higher 2.5/2.4/1.9/1.7/1.2/1.2
  3. Plus those one batter outings make sense from a strategic viewpoint. The one batter would be a lefty and the last out of an inning. And only throwing 5 pitches or whatever means he'll be available for more outings.
  4. To me the Yanks and the Rays are a big litmus test, they're both tough teams in very different ways. The Yanks want to demolish you while the Rays want to torture you with their nerdy no-name approach.
  5. We've played well so far this year against the Yankees and the Rays. And that's all I'll say about it because we must play them many more times!
  6. Great example of how large the spread between bWAR and fWAR can be, not just for a season but for a whole career: our old friend Rick Porcello. Career bWAR 18.8 Career fWAR 29.6 That's large! In his final season, the short one of 2020, Porcello had a grisly ERA of 5.64 in 59 innings, but a FIP of 3.33. fWAR - 1.6 - ace level! bWAR - 0.2 - barely above replacement level! Since he never pitched again, did teams reject the usefulness of fWAR for pitchers?
  7. According to Cora it's an organizational philosophy. Managerial input into this stuff is limited now.
  8. Still not seeing an answer to my question, Mr. Honesty. I guess you're afraid of it.
  9. Dude, why exactly do you think I would I want to visit your profile page as often as you're claiming? Do you have dirty pictures there or something? 🙃 Super weird that this bothers you so much. I can only chalk it up to paranoia. Now, Mr. Honesty, I'll ask again: have you been banned from here more than once or not?
  10. So let's see, Hugh and I both posted replies to you this morning at the same time and we're both showing as 'visitors' at the same time. Obviously this has to do with the settings on your page. Good thing we finally cleared this up.
  11. Hopefully the real decision point is around the end of July.
  12. I'm not even sure what you're talking about. I have put you on ignore and taken you off again, maybe that's what you're seeing. In any case I have no idea why you're obsessed with this and can't stop talking about it. As for your claim about daily visits, prove it.
  13. I agree, but it's beside the point. I agree with your earlier point about it possibly happening at the deadline.
  14. I stand by what I said. If the goal is to make the playoffs this year, there are good reasons not to be in a hurry to trade Duran or Abreu. We're all excited by Anthony's potential, but like all the kids he still has a way to go to prove himself.
  15. LOL OK, it's personal when you're a moderator dealing with a multiple banned poster. You're welcome.
  16. Roman Anthony is the worst hitter on this team at a horrific .083!
  17. It's only personal in the sense that posters who have been banned before get some extra attention, because there are good reasons they've been banned. Very simple. Sorry you don't get it. If you want to stick to baseball, you can prove it by not replying to this.
  18. Thanks, I knew you wouldn't answer the question.
  19. I don't, and what's the big deal if I do? Maybe you could explain that. I don't care who visits my profile page. Of course I can understand why a multiple banned Yankee fan on a Red Sox board would be a little paranoid.
  20. In all the excitement, Roman has 1 hit in 3 games, an OPS of .321 and a bWAR of -0.2. Which is obviously in a miniscule sample, but it's also a reminder that baseball is hard, and the Sox might be wise to keep their options open a while yet.
