The great thing about baseball is that there is usually a game the next day so we don't have to stew over a loss for too long.
-
The good news is that the Sox had a lot of baserunners. I know it's frustrating when we can't seem to get the big hit, but generally, if you generate baserunners, you generate runs.
-
There is no folly in disagreeing with the move of DFAing Hanley in May.
-
No doubt. It's not going to happen.
-
LOL Notin!!! Stop that!!!
-
They could have DFA'd Hanley later in the year if he didn't turn things around. And I bet several GMs think Hanley is worth the minimum. That he isn't signed yet doesn't mean the opposite.
-
I wouldn't doubt it. LOL
-
Good point!
-
Interesting. I'd think the Mariners would play better than .500, just not the .630 ball they're playing now. I will be interested to see how they finish up.
-
I didn't say they would carry the team. But you would expect them to all hit better than they have been. For all 4 of them to be hitting as poorly as they are/were is some bad luck. And why is that Sanchez should be expected to break out of his slump but Devers shouldn't be expected to?
-
To a certain extent. Truth be told, I verified what my eyes told me with the stats. And truth be told again, if the stats had said otherwise, I'd have gone with the stats.
-
I'm good with going back 15 years. But no more!
-
I would have a hard time believing that they were not aware of the vesting option. I'm not sure why it wasn't mentioned. Maybe because any mention of it would kind of throw Dombrowski under the bus indirectly?
-
If it's a net overall improvement, I think you make the move.
-
Aren't those the same as periods??????
-
I'm not convinced that it would necessarily be a weak BP. Weaker without Kimbrel, yes. But I think it could still be very good.
-
LOL You know I'm on board with it.
-
I got that, but I don't think Hanley's not being signed yet is because other GMs agree that DFAing him was the right move.
-
I don't think anyone can deny the huge part that randomness plays in baseball. Sometimes it's called other things, like whacky, crazy, insane, but it all boils down to the same thing.
-
You are correct, as usual. I think Ben gets undue criticism and doesn't get the credit he deserves, but Theo is the man.
-
LOL Ben would be my second choice.
-
Actually, no. Many MLB GMs questioned this move at the time that it happened.
-
JD's best position is at DH, but he wants to play the field and Cora has been playing him in the field often enough. Moreland is best used as a platoon player. There were plenty of at bats to go around and keep everyone happy (except for Swihart, apparently). At any rate, I get all of the logic behind the DFA. I just don't agree with it, in particular, so soon in the season.
-
I don't disagree that it was a bad situation, brought on by the vesting option. I still do not agree with the decision to DFA him so early in the season.
-
LOL I almost spit my drink out on this one.
