    The ump can't even see the whole strike zone, so there is that, too.
  3. moonslav59
    You can say that, again... and again.

    I think he pulled him at the right time, too. Ialso like how we are using Whitlock, and suggested something like this, not long ago.
  5. moonslav59
    It's 50-50 because he's on the 40, Mata's on the IL and some of our starters have been known to be fragile, not because I think he's great.
  6. moonslav59
    That's not soon enough.

    Gotta like what Houck gave, today. It was good to see him throw 89 pitches. He's rarely gone over 90 in the bigs. They still don't trust him for the third time through the line-up, but I guess that's the trend of the day for most pitchers. (Will he ever get a chance to prove he's over that?) I can't help but think a game with Houck going 6 and Whitlock 3, might be our best chance at a W. Nice to see Bogey bust out. Is this going to be Dugo's bust out year?

    Do you have some sort of Tater App on your phone?

    50-50.

    Going 5-2 let’s your pen let up 1 run in the extra inning they have to go. Not bad, especially with 8 men pens these days.

    The Sox offer was far from serious. If it was, the joke is on them. I wouldn’t counter either, or I’d counter with an equally absurd demand like$400M/10. If it’s all about posturing and return offers, that should be his starting point after that crap offer of $30/1.
  12. moonslav59
    Huh?
  13. moonslav59
    As it should be, but artificial cut-offs and using a 4.50 ERA as the definition of quality both seem to be lacking.
  14. moonslav59
    We should extend him now, before he reaches .245!
  15. moonslav59
    To me, it’s more about the 8+ years he will want than the dollars, and I think there is zero chance we offer him even 7 years.

    Trading for pitching has always worked better for us. Bloom valuing prospects so much might prevent that sort of trade in the near future. This deadline could be very interesting.
  17. moonslav59
    Hard not to improve on historical lows.
  18. moonslav59
    I know, but to me, 3 & 0, 4 & 1, 5 & 3 and 8 and 4 seem like more quality than 6 & 3.
  19. moonslav59
    4 and 1 or 3 and zero sure.
  20. moonslav59
    Yes, but to me 5 IP and 2 ERs or 8IP is as good or better.
  21. moonslav59
    Or 7 years. I get it.
  22. moonslav59
    That's what I think.
  23. moonslav59
    If the reports are true, it was a hard slap to his face. Maybe even hard enough for him to more readily waive his no trade contract at the deadline. (Could that have been the motivation?)
  24. moonslav59
    I'm just trying to think of creative ways to keep Devers. I don't think even $240M/8 will keep him here. I want him here, so we have to either raise the AVV or lengthen the deal. At Devers age, I'm thinking the length is a better gamble than the higher AVV. More likely, he'll get somewhere in between- like $290-300M/10, and if you are willing to give that, how can $340M/14 be any worse vs that deal?
  25. moonslav59
    Ive tried very hard to separate what I think Bloom/Henry will do and what I think they should do. I'm trying to show how a contract like $300M/14 to a 25 year old everyday player may be less risky than a $217M/7 deal to a 31 year old pitcher. I, too, doubt Bloom will give anything above $220-240M/8, but I like to give my opinions.
