    Moncada has not been too shabby since turning 24. .279 BA .363 OBP ,464 SLG .827 OPS 63 XBHs per 162 gms

    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.
  4. 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.

    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.

    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.

    What's the over-under on consecutive wins needed to make Stork disappear, again?
  10. moonslav59
    Who-da-thunk?

    In Canada, a beard counts as a mask.
  12. moonslav59
    60 pitches and Wacha is yanked.
  13. moonslav59
    Wow! JBJ is over the .500 line!
  14. moonslav59
    I think this outing was after they moved him up from #51 to #45.
  15. moonslav59
    Because a poster called him Fred Flinstones, so Bloom got scared.
  16. moonslav59
    Careful, you'll have ole red calling you a psychiatrist.
  17. moonslav59
    The guy was praising Bloom 3 weeks ago. These short sample size, knee-jerk judgments never seem to stop, despite being burned over and over by them. Sure, a few times it comes out to be an actual precursor to the season as a whole, but often enough, small sample sizes do not accurately reflect a team's true skill levels.

    Wasn't Danish one of those COVID additions allowed but not on the 40?
  19. moonslav59
    Both are listed on the 40 man per soxprospects.com: https://soxprospects.com/40man.htm

    Reality sucks, sometimes.

    As long as you end up at .745 (Arroyo) or .775 (Dalbec) it's not all that bad, but I get your point. It's also no guarantee both will even end up over .650, let alone .700, but then again, Casas, Duran, Sanchez and Fitzy might not, either. How long is long enough on guys like Arroyo, Dalbec and Cordero. Or, JBJ, Kike and Vaz?
  22. moonslav59
    Arroyo's track record also includes a decent .745 OPS from 2018-2021. (.711 including 2022.) Dalbec now has 620 career PAs and a .775 OPS. That's not bad for any players first 620 PAs- also 34 HRs and 97 rbi.
  23. moonslav59
    Duran needs to play everyday. I think the Sox feel like giving JBJ and others a month or more to work things out is reasonable. They stuck with Cordero for a long time, last year. Same with Marwin and don't forget, Renfroe was under .500 at the start of May, last year. Cora was being roasted for keeping Kike at lead-off, and people were saying Dalbec should be DFA'd, demoted or traded. There is evidence that giving players longer than a month works out. Maybe more leeway is being given due to the short spring training. If the idea is to call up Duran to play as much as Refsnyder, I can see why they waited. I'm not sure they are all that close to pulling the plug on Dalbec, either. Arroyo, too. I'm pretty certain, they are not considering benching Kike. He'll get at least another month, IMO.

    Quite frankly, I'm surprised the farm was rebuilt, so quickly. We are still not a top 5 or 6 farm, but I think we are approaching top 10 status. We won't have high picks, this draft, but let's see what happens. We do get the comp pick from last draft.
  25. moonslav59
    Nice post. I think Groome's drop says more about the rise of the Sox mid tier prospects than anything bad about Jay. The guy does have a decent .638 OPS Against, a 3.60 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP. The 19-5 K:BB ratio in just 15 IP is pretty nice, too. The guy is 23. I think it's close to time to bring him up to AAA, and see what's up. Bello may be close to a promotion, too.
