  1. Maybe they are peaking, too early, but it sure seems like you are right. They do end the season with 3 @ TEX, 3 HOU and 3 TEX, so they could play spoiler, if they run away with the AL West. TEX ends with 3 v BOS, 3 v SEA, 3 @LAA and 4 @SEA HOU ends with 3 v BAL, 3 v KCR, 3 @SEA and 3 @ AZ TOR ends with 6 v NYY and 6 V TBR, but the Yanks are now a pushover. The two series before their last 12 may be their test (4 TEX and 3 BOS)
  2. My projection for SP's next rankings list: (previous rank) 1, Mayer (1) 2. Anthony (2) 3. Teel (5) 4. Rafaela (4) 5. Bleis (3) 6. Yorke (6) 7. Wikelman (8) 8. Perales (7) 9. Zanetello (9) 10. Cespedes (15) 11. Romero (10) 12. Bonaci (12) 13. Walter (13) 14. Castro (20) 15. Abreu (23) 16. Monegro (29) 17. Hickey (18) 18. Meidroth (16) 19. Gambrell (43) 20. EValdez (17) 21. Drohan (11) 22. Joh Garcia (14) 23. Rosier (56) 24. Mata (21) 25. Jordan (19) 26. Anderson (26) 27. E R-C (25) 28. S Scott (41) 29. Yuten (44) 30. Guerrero (31) Dropped from top 30: Paulino, DHam, Fernandez, Alcantara, C Coffey
  3. One less day to make up ground. 32 games left for the Sox and 5 teams are within 4.5 games of each other for the last 2 WC slots. SEA & TEX tied for the WC 2 & WC 3 slots, but one will win the division (or HOU) -1.0 HOU WC3 as of now -2.5 TOR (-1.5 from WC3) -4.5 BOS (-3.5 from WC3 and -2.0 from TOR) Schedule remaining: BOS: 3HOU, 3@KCR, 3@TBR, 3BAL, 3NYY, 3@TOR, 3@TEX, 3CWS, 2TBR, 4@BAL TOR: 3WSH, 3@COL, 3@OAK, 3KCR, 4TEX, 3BOS, 3@NYY, 3@TBR, 3NYY, 3TBR HOU: 3@BOS, 3NYY, 3@TEX, 3SDP, 3OAK, 3@KCR, 3BAL, 3KCR, 3@SEA, 3@ARI TEX: 3@NYM, 3MIN, 3HOU, 3OAK, 4@TOR, 3!CLE, 3BOS, 3SEA, 3@LAA, 4@SEA SEA: 3OAK, 3@NYM, 3@CIN, 4@TBR, 3LAA, 3LAD, 3@OAK, 3@TEX, 3HOU, 3TEX
  4. I'd rather watch them in a strip club. LOL
  5. What's not to like about consistent balls and strike calls?
  6. Gambrell with a nice start for WOO. How high will he rise in the next rankings? 5.2 IP, 2H, 0ER, 4BB, 5K 3-5 Rafaela w two 2Bs 2-3 Kavadas w HR & BB 2-4 Chang 1-4 EValdez w 2B & BB POR won big. Coffey went 7.0 IP, 5H, 2ER, 2BB, 9K 1-4 Jordan w HR 2 hits by Bonaci, Yorke, Meidroth, Hickey (tw 2Bs), Dearden & McDonough. GRE lost 4-3 Perales 5IP, 2H, 0ER, 3BB, 5K Paulino & Ferguson homered. SAL won 5-0 2-4 Salazar and Yuten
  7. Okay, pay Richards $10M/1 and $10M/1 Kluber of $22.5M/4 Wacha.
  8. I'm thinking, more and more, one of the two teams we might pass is going to be Texas- not TOR, HOU or SEA.
  9. They usually only pitch super high leverage innings and throw all out for the short term. Guys like Martin and Jansen don't go multiple innings. Here are the RP PAs Against- and OPS Against 289 Winckowski .765 201 Pivetta .561 172 Jansen .657 172 Murphy .724 168 Martin .576 135 Bernardino .667 119 Schreiber .716
  10. ...and now he says he always wanted to stay in Boston. Boo- Hoo.
  11. The 4 year deal is not all that expensive. Wacha got $4M/1 with this.... Team option at $16M x 1, so it would be $20M/2. or Player option at $18.5M/3, so it would be $22.5M/4.
  12. We play 3 v TOR and 3 v HOU, so in that way, our future can be in our own hands.
  13. TBD vs Houck Big game. Batters are hot. Jansen is supposedly back. The pen was taxed, today, so let's get some innings from Houck. Go Sox!
  14. OPS Leaders, now: .885 Duvall .862 Devers .848 Turner (JD is at .856) .828 Duran (on IL) .826 Casas .801 Yoshida .797 Verdugo .714 Wong Under 225 ABs 1.379 Abreu .769 Reyes .740 Urias .728 McGuire .705 Refsnyder .626 Story All above .705, even the bench, except for Story, who seems to be on the rise. Balance. No black holes
  15. It's easy to say a team as inconsistent in batting, starting pitching and relief pitching is in their rightful place, but I'm still hopeful, we can have a stretch where it all comes together at once. Maybe it's pink glasses. Maybe it's a pipedream. But we have had some very long stretches where the rotation did very well. We have had some very long stretches where the did did very well. We have had some very long stretches where the line up did very well. Granted, our D has sucked, all year, but let's put it all together over these last 5 weeks.
  16. You tell me. You made the remark not knowing what other choices there were, not me. I know Llovera was warming up.
  17. Some fans can never just be happy.
  18. Shoulda brought in Llovera?
  19. He had a major injury. I'm not saying you are wrong, but let's see.
  20. The ump has sucked for both teams.
  21. They actually deserve more bashing than they get.
  22. You mean the bum who just made a big error? LOL
  23. I was big on bringing Wacha back. I liked that idea more than Nate. It's hard for me to get real down on that move, though, when Martin, Jansen, Turner and Duvall are all doing so well. These are mid level signings that are doing better than bigger ones made by other teams. Yoshi and Kluber are bad or questionable. (The Story signing from last March is actually starting to look like it might not be a bust.)
