    Agreed, but the whole idea of making this a skillset is totally messed up.
  2. moonslav59
    It might not matter, since the rest of our IF choices are not all that promising. His defense is plus, and while the .625 career OPS sucks, he's only had 364 PAs. I doubt we hand him a FT job, as he didnt get one this year, either, but we better move to improve the middle infield.
  3. moonslav59
    Unreal that we are now +1 run diff. It sure doesnt feel that way. Only 4 AL teams are better. The A's and Astros are 7th and 8th by record and are -54 and -46!
  4. moonslav59
    While true, our pen has about the same fWAR rank than our rotation. SP 9th RP 10th
  5. moonslav59
    If the team is doing well, it's okay to suck.
  6. moonslav59
    Durbin is up to .670, now. Even with a pretty large sample size, he's jumped from .557 on June 16th! 9 games and a 113 jump.
  7. moonslav59
    Indeed- no Houck, Crawford, sandoval or Oviedo, either!
  8. moonslav59
    Looking good on D.

    Romero hit a homer in Woo's game, tonight. (They lost 13-1.) Holobetz pitched well for POR, who is losing 4-3 in the 9th. Bleis hit two bombs. Witherspoon pitch 6 nice innings as GE is down 6-4 in the 8th. R Hernandez and Anderson homered. SAL is on their way to another loss: 8-1.

    Sox have 3 pitchers in the top 16 in ERA (70+ IP.) (There are 4 ex Sox pitchers in the top 17: Sale, ERod, Harrison & Martin Perez)

    Or get picked off.

    I remember JBJ getting roasted alive for his long slumps and shorter white hot streaks.

    8 non 1B infielders used, so far: 300+ Innings: Durbin, Mayer, Story. IKF 50-299: Monasterio, Sogard, Seigler, Eaton Now add Cheng 2B: 342 Mayer, 185 IKF, 73 Monasterio, 48 Sogard, 47 Seigler 3B: 592 Durbin, 46 IKF, 34 Sogard, 17 Monasterio, 6 Seigler SS: 340 Story, 179 Mayer, 83 Monasterio, 82 IKF, 11 Sogard

    I've been suggesting Duran trades almost since his call-up, but the point many made about or offense being is such poor shape, and trading away one of our top offensive players didn't make sense was a valid one, at the time. Nobody expected .624 in mid June.
  16. moonslav59
    Everybody gets 3-4 years.
  17. moonslav59
    No Judge might help, some. The Yanks line-up tonight feature no batter over .728 from the 4 to the 8 slots. Rosario at .759 is batting 2nd.
  18. moonslav59
    Sox making a move! LMAO. No longer the worst AL team! Not even 2nd worst! Their -4 Run differential is 5th best in the AL and just 1 run from 4th (CWS.) They are 8 runs from 3rd (SEA at +4.) Bring out the brooms!
  19. moonslav59
    I'm just offering evidence that supports Mayer was talked about. I'm not sure what was discussed, but you, as always, seem so sure of yourself. If the Sox insiders said AZ talked about Mayer, why is that any less evidence than AZ insiders saying they wanted Tolle & Early? Could the Tolle & Early talk have happened after BOS said no to Mayer? Surely, that is possible. You could very well be right. I'm not trying to prove you wrong. My point was about what was discussed as offers this winter, and it wasn't 'AI." There was much talk about Mayer being what forced the Sox to say no.
  20. moonslav59
    Yes, Romy was injured in FEB and known to not be ready by Opening day or even May, but he was depth. Signing IKF to $6M was a back-up plan for Mayer-Story and Durbin- not just Mayer, but it was added depth. DHam for 2 utility infielders and signing Cheng was adding depth, too. Some here were pretty high on Sogard and Eaton, too.
  21. moonslav59
    Told ya. Brez will be back- like it or not.
  22. moonslav59
    Maybe $8 to $9M.
  23. moonslav59
    My point was that maybe we'd have all said no to the best winter offer, since it seemed no GM wanted him. I wanted Duran for Paredes plus, but later thought one for one might work. I'm not sure HOU would take even that. Notin suggested Duran for Rushing and was roundly laughed at. I'm mostly curious about what might have been the best winter offer. In hindsight, we'd probably all say yes, now.
  24. moonslav59
    It's closer to 2 strong weeks than 3, but I'll take it. He was at .053 after 5 games. .595 from game 6 to June 9th. .697 in the 18 games before June 10th. It's been a pretty steady improvement, with a couple glitches along the way.
  25. moonslav59
    Breslow's pitching additions and OPSA in 2026: .427 Delzine (IFA) .437 Jimenez (IFA) .454 Eyanson (Draft) .508 Morgan (Draft) .554 Mayers (Draft) .570 Bennett (Trade & in MLB rotation, now.) .588 Rivera (MiLB FA) ,606 Futrell (Draft) .626 Brown (Draft) .634 Brooks (Draft) .656 J Bello (Trade) Plus others without a lot of IP or below .650.
