    Not at all. The metrics say the best hitter should be in the 2 spot, that's all.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Why?
  3. Bellhorn04
    Why?
  4. Bellhorn04
    But they just...ah, never mind.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Thank you.
  6. Bellhorn04
    It's not like they're famous stretches in Red Sox history or anything like that.

    You and notin are full-fledged GOOBERS on this one. The math was fine.
  8. Bellhorn04
    It's all very weird for sure. The only comparison I can think of is 2 university sports teams that play each other every year and one team always beats the other. It almost becomes a 'tradition' and the losers just expect to lose again.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Thank you for correcting those goobers.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Which math is wrong?
  11. Bellhorn04
    And Duran's early defensive grades are not very impressive - vastly worse than Kike's were in CF. A bit of a cluster, isn't it?
  12. Bellhorn04
    And our big deadline move, getting Schwarber, made the defense worse by putting JD in the outfield. Yikes!
  13. Bellhorn04
    Now for the really weird but good part: 1946-1949+29=1975-1978 1975-1978+29=2004-2007

    The Rays are unique. No one is doing what they are doing. They must have the best analytics and coaching team, hands down.
  15. Bellhorn04
    The 1946-1949 Red Sox were eerily similar to the 1975-1978 Red Sox. 1946-lost WS in 7 1947-won 83 games, finished 3rd 1948-lost one game playoff to Cleveland 1949-lost last 2 games to Yankees to finish 1 game behind them 1975-lost WS in 7 1976-won 83 games, finished 3rd 1977-finished T2nd, 2.5 games behind Yankees 1978-lost one game playoff to Yankees

    I have some good news for you, then. They didn't sweep us in Texas. They won 3 out of 4.
  17. Bellhorn04
    The studies have been done, I have no doubt about that. For the average fan it might be more instructive to look at the hot and cold streaks of a hitter. If a guy goes 4 for 4 one day, what do we expect him to do the next day? We know it's extremely unlikely he goes 4 for 4 again. If you look at the game logs of a hitter you'll see the numbers go up and down like a yo-yo. So take that and expand it to a whole team and it's going to be 9 yo-yos.

    If and when Chaim Bloom does sign someone to a big contract, there's a risk some of that will end up dead money too. They don't call them guaranteed contracts for nothing. The Pedroia dead money was just bad luck. It's a cost of doing business for rich teams, IMHO
  19. Bellhorn04
    2021 dead money: Price 16 mill Pedroia 13.75 mill We've had a lot of dead money since the 2014-15 offseason with the Pablo/Hanley/Rusney troika of signings.

    "Tend to" stay in motion - Newton was just another waffler.
  21. Bellhorn04
    They do spend, and I'm not complaining about JH, never have. But you also have to consider that a lot of the teams we outspend couldn't match us in spending if they wanted to, because they don't have the revenues.
  22. Bellhorn04
    The Yankees seem to have a fair amount of momentum right now. I fear it's going to continue.
  23. Bellhorn04
    STORK is a troll.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Yes, but Denny also said we'd have no trouble sweeping the Rangers. And now we're 1 more game behind the Yanks.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Jax making nonsensical statements.
