    Your reliance on Flg% shows your knowledge level.

    I'm not defending Story's defense, because I agree he belongs at 2B not SS, but 19 errors is not a ton for SSs. He had 11 throwing errors, and I'm sure his weak arm led to numerous infield hits not counted as errors. Only 3 SSs in MLB played more inning sat SS and had less fielding errors (not throwing.)

    We all know this aspect of these decisions. Some think it's a fireable offense/issue. I'm getting more and more frustrated by the whole repeating aspect of it.
  4. moonslav59
    Yes, he was still somewhat recovering and was building up his arm strength. That one was more understandable.
  5. moonslav59
    Yes, he is no automatic anything. I'm pretty sure most "baseball people" view Mayer as a better defensive SS than the 2025-2026 Story.
  6. moonslav59
    The in- game story said "back injury." Weird.
  7. moonslav59
    They had a major problem moving Devers. 1. They started the move about 2-3 years too late. 2. Apparently Cora never really even told or asked him to change positions. 3. They played Story at 2B and Bogey at SS in 2022, when that should have been reversed, too!

    Just when I gave up on Cespedes, he's coming to life. (Note: I gave up on Bleis & Castro at the same time.)

    It would be nice to see some glimmer of the team we thought might bring us joy, but you are right.

    Eduardo Rivera did well for POR: 5IP 3H 0ER 2BB 9K. Alcantara went 3-5 with a dinger, while Ferguson hit a granny.

    AL Teams winning WS, according to fangraphs: 9.2 NYY 7.7 SEA 5.3 DET 4.1 TEX 3.0 BAL 2.9 BOS (40% chance at making playoffs) 2.2 TBR 2.1 TOR 1.9 MIN

    Fangraphs says 27% Dodgers will be champs. 9% Braves & Yankees 8% Mariners 5% Tigers & Phillies
  13. moonslav59
    Valera pulled after one inning due to back pain/injury.
  14. moonslav59
    I think it's more about viewing Story like they did Devers for too long- immovable.
  15. moonslav59
    Yup, without those 3, no HOF.
  16. moonslav59
    Bennett starts for Woo tonight. Rivera is going for POR. Valera starts for GRE and Brown for Salem.
  17. moonslav59
    He did have a decent 10 year stretch, but yes HOF caliber for just 5-6 seasons. Context is needed when you see his 3.33 ERA from 1967-1970. He had a 97 ERA+ and a 3.57 FIP.
  18. moonslav59
    At one point I suggested we trade for Ezequiel Tovar to play SS (Story to 2B and Mayer to 3B,) but I'm not sure we matched up well with them. We'd need to have gotten more than Tovar for any of our 4 OF'ers.
  19. moonslav59
    Agreed. Although Samaniego had 3 BBs in 3.2 IP, he did not allow a hit. He'll likely be back at some point. Watson must be close to the end of his look-see.
  20. moonslav59
    Yup, so play him at SS until he earns it or a demotion. If he gets demoted, we'll decide who plays SS then. (IKF?)
  21. moonslav59
    BINGO
  22. moonslav59
    Yup, but he's playing everyday at the wrong position.
  23. moonslav59
    Arauz was worse, but did not last long/ OAA/Innings -12/825 EValdz -8/ 585 Kike -8/471 KC -6/208 Arauz was horrific -4/418 Romy -3/208 Urias DRS- KC was way worse: -16/472 KC -11/825 EValdez -5/235 Reyes -4/205 Nunez -3/28 Pedey
  24. moonslav59
    Yes, I took it that way, and many of us feel that move is long overdue.
  25. moonslav59
    What highlights the circus carousel atmosphere of our 2B position since 2019 is looking at the total innings played by the 38 different players we played there the last 7 seasons. Only one player has enough innings, TOTAL! to be close to a full season's worth of innings. 1248 Arroyo 825 EValdez 814 Story 679 DHam 584 Kike 556 Chavis 472 Campbell 469 Holt 418 Romy______ 292 Marco Hernandez 259 Marwin 245 Grissom 235 Reyes 221 Rafaela 208 Urias 208 Arauz 204 Nunez 203 Peraza_____ 164 Sogard 123 Iggy 109 Yolmer 102 Westbrook____ 71 Lin 65 Owings 57 Mayer 56 Downs 49 Turner 41 Lopez & Chang 30 Gasper, 29 Wong, 28 PEDEY, 20 Munoz 18 Vaz, 11 Motter, 9 Short, 6 Dalbec, 3 Devers
