    But this is my favorite cover of that great song by The Cure...

MVP responded.... Top prospects traded per the above: Lee O'Hoppe Vierling Brown Romero The rest were outside their top 20 on the rankings I looked at (FanGraphs and Baseball America).

    We may not need SEA to lose, if we pass HOU and TOR- the teams we play head-to-head.
  6. moonslav59
    I'm fine with streakiness, as long as the end result is over .850. Sometimes, a team needs one hot player to carry them all by himself. The other thing about his "slumps:" usually his worst stretches he hits around .700. Others have long stretches of .600 or even .500-.550 ball.

    6-4 might be okay, if it's 5-2 v HOU and 1-2 v LAD.

    It's been over 102 with heat indexes between 110-118 everyday since we came back from maine on August 1st. It never gets below 80 at night. The humidity is oppressive. We have already decided, we are never retiring here.

    That may or may not be true, but if true, it might not be a bad thing. My dream came true: Devers Forvers!
  10. moonslav59
    I'd include Bernardino in that mix.
  11. moonslav59
    Some include strength of schedule and division/league and W-L record as part of the "bottom line." (The Sox may pass PHI in W-L by season end- or not.)
  12. moonslav59
    True, but I would not go out of my way to say DD did a better job than Bloom, this year, if it was more about just being in the "right" division and having an easier schedule.
  13. moonslav59
    Good point.
  14. moonslav59
    Thanks. It appears he is following a similar path with PHI as with BOS: trade prospects and spend money.
  15. moonslav59
    It's a small step in the right direction, but I'm for a full robo ump for balls and strikes. Even if it ends uo being flawed, my guess is it will at least be consistent and allow batters and pitchers to rely on a set standard.

    Turner has almost caught him in OPS+ (125 to 124.) He's now just .012 behind in OPS. wRC+ 127 Turner (T28th) 126 JD (32nd) 124 Casas (T37th)
  18. moonslav59
    Just one? What's up with that?
  19. moonslav59
    Should be a great series. Must wins for the Sox. I'm not sure which game I will go to. I'm thinking Sale's game on Wednesday. Paxton v Javier Houck v Verlander Sale v Urquiddy Bello v Frances If we can somehow take 3, our odds of making the playoffs will greatly increase. It's time someone put an end to the Astros streak of making the playoffs and going to the ALCS. One game at a time, though.
  20. moonslav59
    No doubt. ' In the years when the Sox really sucked, hoping the Yanks lost was almost as important as us winning.
  21. moonslav59
    I don't pay attention to Phillies baseball, but has DD traded away any top prospects since taking over? I know he's spent way more than Bloom.
  22. moonslav59
    So, "luck" makes DD the winner in 2023?
  23. moonslav59
    That's actually the number one reason.
  24. moonslav59
    I wonder, if way back then, we'd have come back with $24M/8, his mom would have said, "Sign that contract!"
  25. moonslav59
    DD "wins" by being in a weaker division and weaker #5 and #6 WC teams.
