    It seems like yesterday Wong and Arroyo were South of Mendoza. Now, both are north of Interstate 240.
  2. moonslav59
    He's changed his approach like a dozen times in 6 years.
  3. moonslav59
    Sale's ERA went from 8.22 to 6.75. Same as Kluber.
  4. moonslav59
    Indeed, he was 6 for his last 12, before today's 2-3! He's now 8 for his last 15 w 2 BBs. I think this all started right after MVP called him DFArroyo.

    It was you- just not in bold.
  6. moonslav59
    I had a feeling it was you. Of course, you wouldn't admit it. Typical MVP.
  7. moonslav59
    I feel the same about Arroyo.
  8. moonslav59
    Looks like Hamilton is coming back down to earth. His 0-4 brings him to .848, now. Besides the gem thrown by Paxton, Alfaro went 2-4 and Allen went 2-3 w HBP & SB. The batting star was Palk, who went 3-4 w 3 rbi.

    I'm guessing, if he has one more good start, he'll start rumbling about his rehab time being up, assuming he isn't already.

    98 pitches for Sale: 71 Strikes. I think I saw 97 on a pitch or two, but I'm not sure we can trust those numbers. Let's hope he can keep this rolling.
  11. moonslav59
    If you say so.
  12. moonslav59
    You've heard of CERA, but I heard we are leaving Sale in due to PBA: Pitcher Batting Average. Wong hits way better when Sale stays in the game.
  13. moonslav59
    Was it you?
  14. moonslav59
    Me neither. Shocked is more like it.
  15. moonslav59
    If knowing Connor is Wong, I don't want to be Wright.
  16. moonslav59
    What's up with the new and improved Arroyo and Wong? Who was saying "DFArroyo?"
  17. moonslav59
    Maybe he's done "working on" certain pitches and just let it rip, today.
  18. moonslav59
    I almost said that, but I'm not sure how it looked a century ago.

    If the Sox win, it would ruin the ongoing narrative for some. You are right: I keep hearing about the legions of "Bloom apologists" and the big crowd of "Bloom can do no wrong" sayers, but when pressed for names or examples, it's cricketts. Not one person is happy with .500 or is calling it a success. Pointing out that we are .500 vs teams that are .618 vs all others is not claiming glory or success, It's just stating facts and pointing towards a possible bright side to being .500 with more games to go vs bad teams than those in front of us. This team has some serious weaknesses, and IMO, the worst one to have is SP'ing, so I am far from thinking we are looking successful, right now. I still see hope our starters will turn things around, and with parity the way it looks, right now, maybe they don't have to be great to ride this train to something that resembles success.

    Good to see Sale throwing 95-96. Nice game. Now, he needs to string a few together, like this. We need the pen to shine, today!
  21. moonslav59
    Not only did he miss 43% of his starts, he sucked in 2019 and was more like a #3 in 2022, when he did pitch (4.30 FIP).
  22. moonslav59
    We did offer a QO. Texas basically gave him a QO x 2 yrs.
  23. moonslav59
    The schedule is more balanced than I can ever remember, so we will eventually play the bad teams, and a few winning teams will begin playing more winning teams than they have, so far. We still have to beat the bad teams, and being at .500, now is nothing to be happy about, but we do have some tings working in our favor, if we choose to look at the bright side once in a while.

    Ignore the facts, if you want to think gloom & doom... Team Records vs Sox and vs rest of league: v Sox / v others 4-0 TBR 19-5 3-0 PIT 17-8 3-3 BAL 15-6 1-1 CLE 12-13 1-2 MIL 17-7 1-2 MIN 15-10 1-3 LAA 13-11 0-3 DET 10-13 118- 73 vs others 14-14 vs the Sox I thought the idea was always to play .500 vs good teams and mop up on the bad ones. Note: we will play the bad teams, at some point. Wow, even Detroit is not far from .500, if the never played us. We are at .500 or better vs these 4 teams with winning records outside of playing us: BAL, MIL, MIN & LAA We are below .500 vs these 2: TBR & PIT Call it a balanced mediocre league all you want, but just don't say we can't beat winning teams. We've beaten 3, tied 1 and lost to 2.

    Legit #2 for April- agreed.
