    And how did the resident .180 specialist do against them? (Note, I'm not asking why jones isn't playing; I'm asking why we keep going to a guy who has proven over a large sample size to be a sub-Mendoza hitter).
  2. jad
    Didn't see the game, just the box. Why does Jones hit a HR in his first AB and then is replaced by a .180 hitter?
  3. jad
    Yup. Every time I rag on Duran, he does well. I like the guy, so I'm going to continue criticizing him. Same with Romy, although didn't work today.
  4. jad
    no no! jarren and Romy need their ABs. You know, 'trade value' ... or whatever bs argument keeps them in there.

    To paraphrase Brando: "My ole man cooked harder than that."

    I defined Duran as the "bad hitter" in the post.
  7. jad
    Yup. They signed a contract, There is no clause in there that he has to kiss the asses of his bosses. But apparently the contract a number of posters signed for their employers did in fact contain that clause.

    Having grown up (and never past) the sixties, I find it very odd that the word 'insubordination' is used here in a purely negative sense. So 'virtue', then, is obeying your boss, bowing to authority, doing what you're told ... WTF has happened to this country?
  9. jad
    So why would you dump a good hitter in order to retain a bad one? (or is this the red sox way).
  10. jad
    Yeah, there are just SO many teams (unlike the RS) who don't have enough .190 hitters on their rosters.
  11. jad
    That's what I did. And you're even posting on it.
  12. jad
    Just play Yoshi. Enough of the Duran pampering.
  13. jad
    Ha ha! Baseball. Duran bloops a ht, and Yoshi drills one into a DP.
  14. jad
    Oh for Gods sake DURAN AGAIN???
  15. jad
    No one on the bench to hit for a .150 hitting Eaton? No lefty perhaps?
  16. jad
    Just bec. another team has a .190 hitter doesn't make our .190 hitter any better.
  17. jad
    Looks like he's given up on the stupid back stretch, leg-kick stance that sucked. And now has a more traditional stance, which will likely be no better.
  18. jad
    ... we can all wonder, WTF is Duran doing in there as DH? We don't have any other .190 hitters?
  19. jad
    That bloop over the pitcher was intentional, right? (At first I thought it was blind luck).
  20. jad
    and you want to be my latex salesman!
  21. jad
    I'm not sure about that. Having stars is equally important, since the average Joe schmuck fan doesn't say "Hey! Let's go to Fenway and watch DURBIN!" Rather, they say "Let's go to Fenway and watch ...." hmm. That doesn't work. No. They say "Let's go to Dodger stadium and watch Ohtani and Betts,"

    Hey Mom, good any Food?
  23. jad
    You forgot to add: " ... , backstabbing that regular (a la Tito), and then refuse to resign that FA the next year, and put 30 million/year in your pocket as the sycophantic fans roar in approval." Nope. Never seen that.
  24. jad
    Maybe if I question him again as I did last night, he can keep it up, SO once again: WTF is Duran doing as a regular starter? He's good great speed, but he's an average fielder at best, and he's hitting ,190. (Ok. We'll wait for results)
  25. jad
    I watched that with a former gf. She didn't laugh. I knew immediately it was over.
