    I've been touch'n'go on that thread. A lot of times I join it near the end of the game, after I have caught up on tape delay. I have noticed some winning games, the threads are just 2-3 pages long.

    Yes, I thought about that after I clicked "submit," but I think there is reason for optimism on both fronts.
  3. moonslav59
    It's like Swi and Stork only coming out after losing streaks. Now that I mention it, where are they?
  4. moonslav59
    He may be replaced at the deadline.

    Having a lot of players on the IL is rarely exciting, but in our situation, there does seem to be a significant amount of optimistic anticipation about the future of our 26 man roster, this summer (and some improvement in ML ready AAA players, as some decent players will have to be demoted.) Sale Wacha Eovaldi Whitlock Hill Danish Barnes Paxton Kike It's like we are trading for these guys without giving up anything.

    Apparently, his lack of comprehension goes beyond just reading and simple logic.
  7. moonslav59
    I'm thinking there is less pressure when we are down 5-0, early.
  8. moonslav59
    Why does it seem like the pen does much better in games where the starter sucks?
  9. moonslav59
    I remember, yes, but back then, I didn't pay much attention to who was who. I just responded to posts. Maybe that was a better way to do it.

    Agreed. There is room for both on the budget, but it would cut into Bloom's ability to fill out the rest of the roster, which will have some big holes in need of filling. I doubt he fields a team with Judge in RF, but Downs/Arroyo at 2B or SS (wherever Story does not play), Casas./Cordero/Dalbec at 1B and some combination of Wink, Seabold, Bello or Crawford in the rotation replacing 2 or 3 of Nate, Wacha & Hill. IMO, if we extend Devers, this winter, we will spread out the rest of the winter spending budget to build a more deeper team, instead of a top heavy one. Just my opinion.

    As much as I find JD annoying and trollish, I'm not sure he's done anything worse than some Sox posters, but I'm not aware of his past incarnations and transgressions. Speaking of Skeeters, the Sugar Land Skeeters changed their name to the Space Cowboys.
  12. moonslav59
    With Sale and Nate about to be activated, I think Bello gets sent down, for now. His next ML experience may be as a RP'er. For now, I think Wink and Seabold might be ahead of Bello on the rotation depth chart.
  13. moonslav59
    Exactly, but even after you put him on ignore, he apparently still goes on and on.
  14. moonslav59
    I'm not sure we go large and long on any 1Bman, this winter, due to Casas being in the system and ML ready, once he returns from the IL and gets some rehab work. Abreu might sign for 1 year, but probably not.
  15. moonslav59
    Agreed, and it sure was nice watching the best 2 man combination of the decade, but it's not the only way to win it all, and I don't think Bloom's philosophy is to put all your eggs in 2 baskets.
  16. moonslav59
    I’d rather they sign him than both Bogey and JD combined, but I’m not sure hi fits into Bloom’s priorities. Sorry for the non answer, but I have no idea. If I had to guess, I’d say no.
  17. moonslav59
    Close game. Bad result. Get ‘em tomorrow!!!!
  18. moonslav59
    Maybe he’s been banned from all Yankee forums, or spends 12 hours a day here and 12 on Yankee sites.
  19. moonslav59
    It’s one game, but yes, disappointing.
  20. moonslav59
    Plus, bad eyesight vs no reading comprehension is not a battle I'd choose to start.
  21. moonslav59
    Me, too.
  22. moonslav59
    He's on the IL.
  23. moonslav59
    The 5 BBs might mean they will insists on one more rehab start, but who knows?
  24. moonslav59
    It's not just Whitlock being added to the pen. When we get other starters back, we'll have the option of moving Hill, Wink, Seabold, Crawford and or Bello to the pen. Maybe we trade a marginal pen arm or demote Danish. Right now, with Robles gone, we don't have many active pen arms stinking up the place. OPS Against Last 28 days (last 14 listed as well) .348 Schreiber (.217) .439 Brasier (.705) .525 Diekman (.465) .562 Crawford (.255) .628 Davis (.182) .628 Danish (.466) .636 Sawamura (.408) .667 Houck (.568) .833 Strahm (.833) (.623 Wink to pen?) That's 8 RP'ers doing well in the last 14 and last 28 together. Strahm is not one of those 8, but I doubt we give up on him, this quickly.

    Exciting and scary at the same time.
