Sox have the 4th best team OPs since June 1 at .801. Our staff has held its ground to some extent: 7th in xFIP since 6/1.
-

No SS drafted first will make many happy.

Agreed, especially if the return of Casas is in doubt at the end of the month.
-
I know, but when I put 2B only splits, it would not let me do split seasons, too.
-
Sure looks good on paper. If one gets hurt or struggles, we’ll have DHam, Romy and Grissom as decent looking depth.
-
Sox are …. 3.5 behind the Yanks (2 loss column) 5.5 from the Os (5 losses) 1.5 behind MN for the #2 WC slot +1.0 on KCR (2 in loss column) +2.5 on the streaking Astros (3 losses)

Nice box score to wake up to. Our 5,6, 7 hitters had 8 of our 10 hits. Glad I was wrong about benching Yoshida. DHam keeps plugging away, as his sample size nears the point where I’m starting to expect .735 offense. Of course, the pitching was the highlight of the box score.
-
Agreed. They both have a better chance of doing something productive than what we’d get in return, even if we pay and save half their contract costs. Plus, there is no guarantee JH spends the money saved.

Here are our top fWAR at 2B “primarily “ according to fangraphs since 2020 in split seasons: 21 Kike 3.7 ‘22 Story 2.5 ‘20 Arroyo (short season) 0.9 ‘21 Iggy (just 51 PAs) .07 ‘23 Reyes .06 ‘23 Valdez 0.4 ‘22 Arroyo 0.3 ‘23 Urias 0.2 ‘22 Chang 0.1 ‘21 Arauz 0.1 DNQ: ‘23 DHam 0.1 (55 PA) as SS SS 22 Bogey 6.0 21 Bogey 4.1 20 Bogey 1.6 Short season 24 DHam 1.1 23 Reyes 0.6 24 Rafaela 0.6 24 Romy 0.5 23 Story 0.4 22 Chang 0.3 21 Arauz 0.1 24 Story 0.0

Yoshida and Story to LAD?

My current rankings: 1. Anthony 2. Mayer 3. Teel 4. Campbell 5. Cespedes 6. Bleis 7. Perales 8. Fitts 9. Sandlin 10. Zanetello 11. Yorke 12. Meidroth 13. Jo. Garcia 14. Jh. Garcia 15. Arias 16. E R-C 17. Early 18. Lugo 19. Dobbins 20. Jordan/Paulino/Castro
-
Agreed. It was not a given even 4-5 weeks ago.
-
We need to keep winning series. We can’t take this game lightly.
-
Agreed. We might trade a prospect at #8 or worse for a rental, but not a top 7. This winter, we likely will have to trade a top 3 or 2 from Campbell, Cespedes and Bleis to just keep the other GM from hanging up.
-
It’s not far from cool places.
-
Did you look at the over 230 point reverse split in2023 with sample sizes of 295 and 108 PAs???
-
On the surface, I think we will need more help in the middle IF (Mayer) than OF (Anthony) or C (we have Wong) I’m not sure this should be the deciding factor in choosing which of our top 3 prospects might be best to trade, assuming one will be traded. I hope it’s for a top controllable SP. One could argue for keeping Anthony to replace O’Neill, despite the shift even further to LHB unbalance. We also may lose Ref after 2025 and could trade Abreu, if overloaded in the OF. One could argue for keeping Teel, as the catching position is always a tough position to fill. (That is also a point for other GMs to offer more for him.) The strongest argument, to me, is to keep all 3. Personally, I’d put KCampbell 4th on my most wanted keeper list. Cespedes might be 5. As much as I think we need to keep our best pitching prospects, namely Perales, Fitts and Sandlin in that order, I’d trade any in a package for a solid ace or #2. I really like Bleis, but you have to give to get, and out OF looks loaded. If we keep Mayer, then Yorke is expendable. If we keep all 5, we can afford to trade any everyday player from Bleis on down for a SP under control.
-
He may not end up being one, and he hasn’t been this year, so far, but his career numbers are bigger and 100 points is significant.
-
I never used the word trend. I started out saying he has a career split about 100 points on the reverse side. I responded to a reply saying “if he continues” implying as his career has been. You added trend or think I implied it.
-
My question was where does Ref play v LHPs, if we add Drury and Canha, and who sits if you say DH or corner OF? Please answer.
-
He is really proving himself, this year. Most might have been happy with .665 and improved D.
-
In 2021 he was about even. In 2019 he was 70 better v RHP. Yes, he does not need to be platooned, which was my point, but you chose to criticise me not the guy who want a Wong-Teel platoon.
