    Hernandez had been pitching very well though. And he normally doesn't give up a lot of hard contact either, with a .338 SLGA, virtually identical to Houck's .332 SLGA. Totally logical move by Cora that didn't work out.

    A large segment of "sports fans" are selfish, miserable, hateful pricks. They only love the team when it's winning. At least baseball players who mess up don't get killed the way soccer players do, I guess...
  3. Bellhorn04
    Exactly right. And while it burned us last night, I like the rule.
  4. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, it's brutal. But so predictable.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Disagree. Houck issued 4 walks. in less than 2 innings. That's not indicative of a pitcher who's on his game. Hernandez just had to get Rizzo. That was his job. When he plunked Rizzo that opened up the possibility of what happened.

    There's no quit in you, huh, Max?

    Quivering bowl of jello? Jeezus. They had a bad game, that's all.

    Why should be players be loyal to fans, Kimmi? Fans are the first to want them gone when they're not performing. Fans are only loyal as long as the player is consistently delivering.

    Giants are up 2.0 again. Amazing stuff.
  10. Bellhorn04
    But as I was saying, the fans don't really have any loyalty to the players either. It's all about the laundry and which GM is doing the best job moving the pieces and keeping the payroll under control.

    It seems pretty clear that Mookie preferred LA to Boston. The money he got from them was not even that much more than the Red Sox offer. There was the pandemic factor, but after all the time he waited to get to free agency, was that really such a big deal to him?

    It's a business for most. And most fans, if you can judge by those who post here, are totally heartless. "Player X is a bum." "Player X is ridiculously overpaid." "Cut Player X." "Trade Player X." "Don't re-sign Player X." You are not a typical fan. I mean that in a good way.

    Shaw has played some 2b as well.
  14. Bellhorn04
    There is no refutation. We do have respect for many numbers here.

    SPLENDIDSPLINTER = Ted Williams SPLENDIDSPLITTER = Koji Uehara
  16. Bellhorn04
    We're basically talking about one player?
  17. Bellhorn04
    Lots of great calls Jax.
  18. Bellhorn04
    He corrected your grammar. Never trust an accountant.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Tito maybe left Beckett in that game too long?
  20. Bellhorn04
    So how much is 1 WAR worth in your calculations, mvp?
  21. Bellhorn04
    Actually, if he only DH'd this year his WAR would be over 3, which is worth more than $20 mill in free agent dollars.
  22. Bellhorn04
    They're all hired guns, man.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Hey, remember when Cora ditched all CERA concerns in the 2018 postseason? I do. It worked out.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Because he swings at those low outside breaking balls all the time!
  25. Bellhorn04
    OTOH Betts has missed a lot of games this year with an assortment of minor injuries. To answer your question I don't think it looks any better or worse. Betts is still a great player and 12 years is still a hell of a long time. Trout missing most of the season is another reminder of the crazy amount of risk in this deals. (All of which has more to do with the extension than the trade.)
