Maybe he bet on the Astros.

Thanks. Take away that one bad game and his numbers are off the charts.

Winckowski making his case to be called up ahead of Seabold. Both are on a roll. 6 IP 2 H 0 ER 1 BB 9 K Politi K'd 2 in his first IP at AAA (0 H O ER 0 BB) MUrphy might be ready to be promoted to AAA (now at a 1.95 ERA): 5 IP 3 H 1 ER 1 BB 6 K Rafaela is not at .920 after going 4 for 5 while hitting for the cycle! Maybe he's ready for AA. Yorke went 2-5, McDonough 2-4 w HR and BB, Binelas 1-4 w HR and BB and Lugo 2-4 w a 2B and 4 rbi.

Huh?

Hasn't German just had one really bad game, shortly after his return?
-
I'm waiting for the re-sign Eovaldi thread to come back to life.
-
No. He was a generation or two before that.He was a college professor and taught many hippies.
-
No, but my Dad once owned a VW bus and later an Oldsmobile station wagon.

Yes, it's down to one, for you. 39 hate 1 love What a great fan!

More like junk bonds. Ponzi schemes?

A horse called man.

BTW, what ever happened to the poster who swore he could tell JD's bat had slowed and was destined to continue slowing further?
-
We do play in colder climes than most teams, and I said it might be 10% of a factor. Might. I took a stab at some possible factors. I'm just guessing.
-
It hasn't ended like Manny's, but yes, one could argue it was.
-
Wow, I did not know that.
-
And you denied hating the majority of the Sox team. Now, it's all but one.
-
LOL! These loses count just as much as the ones in September, someone said a few times, already.
-
As bad as this year has been, this is the worst game, so far.
-
You don't think cold weather can have any affect, just because a few teams ahead of the Sox did not drop off a cliff by as much? I'm not saying it's a major factor, but I do think it plays a role. We had a lot of hitters, last year, that took off at some point in May and June. Maybe the dead ball is 50%, the slumping is 40% and the cold weather 10%. Who knows? Why not tell us your opinion?
-
You did not ask about our placement. You asked about why the Sox are having a "power outage." The fact that the whole league is, has to be part of it. I never said it affected all teams "EQUALLY." You did. Yes, it has affected us more than anyone else, and maybe, and this is just my opinion in response to your question, the rest is due to cold weather and all but 3 guys slumping at the same time. (Plus, even the 3 non-slumpers, are low in HRs compared to previous seasons.) Do you have another reason to add, other than the Red Sox just plain suck?
-
I never said we played the coldest games or that nobody had more HRs while playing in many cold games. The fact that a few teams have more homers in colder weather does not mean it cannot be a factor. I just suggested, it might be part of the answer, along with slumping and the dead ball.

A look at team ISO numbers since 2018 (30 teams x 5 seasons= 150 sample sizes) Only the NYY crack the top 45 (at #45 at .180) out of teams from 2022. MIL is 47th at .179. The last 5 teams are all from 2022, and the Sox are not one of them. (We are #144/150.) 9 of the bottom 11 are from 2022. 13 out of the bottom 17, too. (16 out of 25 and on and on...) This certainly can explain part of our lack of HRs.
-
Yes, and many teams have less homers, too. That is why it might be PART of the answer. Many teams have also not played in cold weather as much as the Sox. Many other teams do not have all but 3 players slumping at the same time.
-
Cold weather, dead ball and concurrent slumps.
-
The bigger joke is you taking it seriously.
