    I can't remember any good being said, but maybe there was a moment or two, here and there...
  2. moonslav59
    All this being said, I would not blink an eye, if we traded, demoted or DFA'd Brasier, tomorrow, but he's not #1, 2 or even 3 on my DFA list.
  3. moonslav59
    Certainly Ort and Valdez are just as speculative, too. I'm no fan of counting recency ab ove all else, but before tonight, these are the last 4 weeks OPS Against... .296 Schreiber .569 Brasier .569 Sawamura .630 Houck .647 Davis .680 Strahm .750 Danish .768 Diekman .785 Valdez Now, I'm not saying Btrasier is better than those behind him, on this list, but going with the hot hand is not really something you can blame a manager for doing. Last 2 weeks? Okay, Brasier is worse than maybe all but Diekman, but still...Diekman's 1.239 OPSA in the last 7 games clearly puts him behind Brasier as "the worst."
  4. moonslav59
    Don't hold your breath.
  5. moonslav59
    Diekman should have been DFA'd weeks ago. He's way worse. Everybody I listed is or has been in the BP, this year, except Seabold, who may be, soon. Go ahead and throw out Seabold & Crawford. The rest are straight pen guys. Diekman, Barnes, Ort and Valdez are worse. Sawamura, Danish, Davis and the recent Strahm are close.
  6. moonslav59
    On the 26, now? The question is worse not worst, because there are at least 3: Diekman easily Ort obviously Valdez clearly Sawamura- maybe Davis- maybe Strahm- recently On the IL: Barnes Seabold Maybe Danish Starting, now: Crawford Is that enough? Some of these names are debatable, but no way is Brasier the worst. Eye Test Red's Eye Test Stats Metrics Bloom's opinion Cora's opinion

    Brasier is not our worst pitcher. Not even close. Yes, it's not rocket science.
  8. moonslav59
    This loss hurts.
  9. moonslav59
    Murphy went 7 2 H 0 ER 3 K (3.00 ERA, now) DHern with a scoreless 8th (1H, 1BB, 1K) Jimenez got himself over .700 with a 3-4 night, including a 3B.
  10. moonslav59
    The out may hurt more than the tying run being wiped off 3B.
  11. moonslav59
    The absurdity is beyond words.
  12. moonslav59
    No win for Sale.
  13. moonslav59
    Strahm's luster has worn off.
  14. moonslav59
    I used Red's Eye Test. I just got it in the mail.
  15. moonslav59
    78 pitches by Sale. Never expected that. He didn't look all that good, but held the Rays to 0 runs. Can't complain.
  16. moonslav59
    I'm not sure either one deserves it.
  17. moonslav59
    If that was me saying that...
  18. moonslav59
    It's stats and reading from a computer screen that gives me difficulty. I can see the game fine from my 60 inch screen. It's not stats that are Red's issue, it's stats he doesn't like. He uses BA. He uses RBIs. He uses sample sizes that fit his position, like we all do, but don't use OPS, OBP, SLG or dare use WAR. DRS or UZR/150 or the like. Only his stats matter.
  19. moonslav59
    Normally, I'd trade Lugo for Bell, but I'm wondering who our future SS might be. I like Walter, too much to deal him for this 2 month rental.
  20. moonslav59
    Maybe I’m undervaluing Bell, but I think Murphy alone would be an overpay. Dalbec and Ward, maybe.
  21. moonslav59
    I don't think it will take that much, despite BTV's opinion. I'd like to see us part with 2-3 players that will be on the 40 man roster/Rule 5 bubble, this winter. We have ab out 10 players for about 6-7 slots, depending on how many FAs we add or re-sign. DHern PValdez JGroome Seabold Crawford Downs Danish Cordero Ort Rule 5 Bubbles: Kole Cottam Durbin Feltman Gilberto Jimenez Jake Thompson Eddison Paulino Rule 5 Probably don't need to protect: Angel Bastardo Brainer Bonaci (was he misted on the "names" thread?) Cameron Cannon Nick Decker Ryan Fitzgerald Devlin Granberg David Hamilton Brandon Howlett Christian Koss Victor Santos Noah Song T Ward

    Say that again in 3 weeks,
  23. moonslav59
    Good points. soxprospects says he has 3 will show three "at least-average offerings." With a "strong pitchability and advanced command and control profile allow his arsenal to play up. At his best, can generate whiffs with three pitches..." I had hoped this meant he could be a decent 4/5 starter in the bigs. You were right about him losing velo since the injury. I guess I'll go back to having little hope with Seabold.

    Past 4th and key lower past picks: 2021 4 Elmer Rodrigues- Cruz 5 Hickey 11 Kavadas 2020 4 Wu-Yellan 5 Drohan 2019 4 Song 6 Murphy 2018 4 Cottam 5 TWard 7 Duran 2017 4 Jake Thompson 2016 4 Dalbec
  25. moonslav59
    I'm not sure gaining a 4th round pick matters much, but I guess it's better than nothing.
