    I'd say pretty close.
  2. moonslav59
    It's not rocket science, and the trend has gone on for years and years. JBJ + Vaz's contract is close to what Suzuki is making per year.
  3. moonslav59
    .500 for how long? We're 4 under, now, and I don't think 4 under in August is where we'd like to be, in terms of being in the playoff hunt.
  4. moonslav59
    One could argue the money saved was obviously used to sign Renfroe, but one could argue Marwin, instead.
  5. moonslav59
    I get it. Cora understands all the ins and outs better than I do. That being said, I'd like to see our starters going a bit longer into games, and with ST'ing being delayed and shortened, I can understand why there has been a delay. The expanded pens are now gone, so that's another reason we have seen shorter starts.
  6. moonslav59
    True, but 60 is awfully low. This season: 72, 79, 82, 92, 60 Maybe the 92 made Cora think he'd go light, this time, but it's not like 92 is way too much.
  7. moonslav59
    This goes beyond that. He was at 60 pitches, last night. Hell, they gave Whitlock 61 his last start.
  8. moonslav59
    How would we know? This is not the same Wacha from pre-September 2021. Also, even when he sucked, his numbers were not that bad... .682 first time .742 second time .759 3rd time .582 4th time (if you add 3rd & 4th time together, it's better than the second time.) Time to take the kid gloves off, especially since the pen is now reduced by 2 pitchers. Same goes with some other starters not named Houck.

    I'd reword that to... "Manfred Man Blows (saves)"

    They did put added pressure on themselves to have one or two more hot stretches over the remaining season, but as badly as they have been playing, the last WC slot is not all that far away. (I've been needlessly reminded that last place is just as close.)

    Moncada has not been too shabby since turning 24. .279 BA .363 OBP ,464 SLG .827 OPS 63 XBHs per 162 gms
  12. moonslav59
    Any reason why he seems to be on a very limited pitch count?

    ...and road teams are probably losing just as many games in extra innings as before the ghost runner rule, but now they are getting more chances for multiple blown saves in extras: that was my point.
  14. moonslav59
    Yes, but they can more easily have multiple blown saves in extra innings, as we often see one team score a run, then in the bottom of the inning, the home team ties it (blown save) and on to more chances for more blown saves. Before the ghost runner, my guess is the amount of multiple blown saves in extra was way less than now.
  15. moonslav59
    It's actually 19. Counting tonight, we play 20 of our next 28 at home (to June 1st), including a 5 game series vs BAL in 4 days. We have to win, because after this stretch, we hit the left coast road 3@ OAK 4@ LAA 3@ SEA We all know how we do out there.
  16. moonslav59
    You'd think, so, and even though every extra inning game is lost by someone, these extra inning games often involve multiple blown saves as team match each other in runs scored often.

    While winning the division is very nice, it's not really needed. The Yanks will hit a rough patch, at some point. We will likely have a few more, too. With 138 games to go, there is enough time to overtake the Yanks or do enough to secure a playoff slot.
  19. moonslav59
    What's the over-under on consecutive wins needed to make Stork disappear, again?
  20. moonslav59
    Who-da-thunk?
  21. moonslav59
    In Canada, a beard counts as a mask.
  22. moonslav59
    60 pitches and Wacha is yanked.
  23. moonslav59
    Wow! JBJ is over the .500 line!
  24. moonslav59
    I think this outing was after they moved him up from #51 to #45.
  25. moonslav59
    Because a poster called him Fred Flinstones, so Bloom got scared.
