I certainly hope JD is back next year, and Schwarber as well.
-
We're definitely not here to save time.
-
Yes. I think 60/40 is about right.
-
Hopefully not.
-
And if wins and losses and saves were all we had to talk about, there wouldn't be much reason to even have a Talksox. "We lost 9-6 last night." "Yeah, I know, that sucks." "OK, see you tomorrow."
-
Ottavino makes for a great argument that OPS should be weighted more toward OBP.
-
Yeah, if you start thinking STORK knows better than Bloom, you might as well ditch baseball and become a fly fishing fan.
-
Yeah, all these stats for relievers are very bad and stupid.
-
Yes, I think that was Confucius.
-
The problem is that we didn't counter-strategy the strategy!
-
If it's a 1 run game, I think both jobs are tough. I agree with Denny up to a certain point about the 9th inning, because there's a psychological aspect to being the last man standing. But I think it can be overstated, too.
-
The way our pen is going, it's rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
-
But JD has probably been doing it his whole career, and he's got one of the highest OPS in baseball. Hitting major league pitching is just incredibly hard to do when the pitchers are hitting their spots.
-
Any time you have a slim lead or are tied in the late innings it's high leverage, but in your comparison, the 8th inning would definitely be the tougher job.
-
I think with a good hitter like Verdugo at bat in that situation, you want him to hit the ball hard somewhere. And Verdugo is not an all-or-nothing guy, he uses the whole field. Colome just made the right pitches.
-
Whitlock pitched 2.2 innings and threw 37 pitches on Monday. So they weren't going to use him again on Wednesday.
-
Yeah, it's close. The only difference is that Gausman was coming off a very nice mini-season with the Giants. Some people say there's no such thing as a bad one-year contract, too. But the Red Sox may balk at the 19 mill with respect to the luxury tax situation.
-
And when you have a bullpen that's falling apart, you might as well just have fun. So Richards for closer.
-
I didn't tackle that part LOL
-
$19 mill is a lot of money for a comp pick.
-
I don't think anyone believes it right now. His slump is pushing his numbers down into the 'no way does he opt out' zone.
-
Brutal.
-
Rare.
-
It is what it is. The reason we don't beat up on those teams is that we're just not that good.
-
That's on the right track.
