  1. I concede your point. Over to Larry now.
  2. The next thing we need to know is the actual difference in elapsed time between strong-armed shortstop throws and weak-armed throws (obviously not including the lollipop throws when the thrower is extremely off balance) and how those translate to out vs. safe calls!
  3. I guess Larry is suggesting other teams might have interest with openings at the MLB level.
  4. Eovaldi will always have a very good place in Red Sox history. Everyone remembers Game 3 of the 2018 WS, But that was just the kind of player he is - he gives you everything he's got. Pretty amazing career in spite of being derailed numerous times by health issues.
  5. Bob Nutting is a perfect name for a bad sportswriter.
  6. Yeah, this is a tad concerning for a man with a surgically repaired elbow. There's always something new to worry about.
  7. There's certainly nothing wrong with his velocity.
  8. Put it this way, I don't think any Sox fan would be averse to signing Robertson. Crazy that Robertson isn't signed yet, assuming he still wants to play. Maybe he only wants to play if it's the right amount. There haven't even been any rumors about him that I've noticed.
  9. It's amazing how entertaining small sample baseball numbers can be. No matter how meaningless, any numbers are better than no numbers.
  10. That's what I thought, too. 14 hits, 2 HR and 7 walks in the tiny sample of 9.1 IP is a little rough though.
  11. I think the guy just has serious holes in his game. The lack of power has been glaring, and that may even be an understatement.
  12. I have to figure Bloom thought he was an .850-.900 OPS guy. God knows what they were thinking about him playing in the outfield.
  13. Really? You think they're scrambling to give Mayer a shot at opening day 2B?
  14. Yep, he's even worse than the critics of the signing suggested. But maybe some of them were being polite. I remember one guy being quoted as saying "I have no words", which was chilling.
  15. Grissom does need a change of scenery if he's ever going to have an MLB career. The Punchless Wonder slugged .235 in his 40 PA's in spring games.
  16. The Bogey call-up was a sort of emergency, with the team going for a title and Middlebrooks failing to inspire much confidence.
  17. Understood, but the signing was a big deal for Bloom, given the amount of money involved and the budget he was working with. Plus he spent another chunk on Justin Turner to be primarily a DH. While only $10 million on the rotation. He has to wear it IMHO.
  18. The implication was that his skills were not worth $90 million plus posting fee.
  19. A lot of people are really gonna hate the Dodgers this year.
  20. You have to think a team in need of an LH bat would be interested in Yoshida if the Sox pay 70% of his salary or something like that.
  21. Horrible signing by Bloom. At first people didn't realize Yoshida was only suited to be a DH, but once they did, it was hard to figure what Bloom was thinking shelling out that much money. Yoshida will be 32 in July, also.
  22. Amazingly enough, Rafaela has 6 walks vs. only 3 strikeouts in spring games!
  23. (Stupid joke alert) The Sox have to be careful they don't get any too many men on the field penalties this year.
  24. Yeah, what I'm really wondering is if MLB would see it as a "phantom IL" abuse thing. They sort of cracked down on that a bit with the former Mets GM, right?
