  1. I'm saying the thought was he may not hurt our already putrid 1B defense, but suddenly Dalbec started fielding well. I never said he was an upgrade on defense. He certainly isn't in LF over Verdugo. I think the thought was it might be a sideways move at 1B D and a big gain on offense.
  2. Nice win. Now, win tomorrow and start a trend.
  3. That's all we needed to break the hex. The floodgates will be opened for the rest of the season. Mark my words.
  4. Wow, an extra base hit with men on base! How long has it been?
  5. Call these guys the Solo gang!
  6. Yes, but he looks like toast, now.
  7. It's seems to be expected, now. We are stuck in a defeatism pattern and can't get unstuck, until someone blasts us out of it.
  8. Renfroe can redeem himself, here.
  9. Everyone else would have against us.
  10. Someone like Taco Bell should offer $1 Million to the next Sox player to hit a HR with a man on. $2M with 2 on. $5M for a granny.
  11. That completes the trifecta.
  12. So, we basically have 4-5 DHs, now. One with a great arm.
  13. I hate to sound like a broken record or a whiner, but I'm so tired of the swinging bunt hits, closed-eyes bloopers and simple plays not being made. It's like every freakin' DAY!
  14. Wow, the Jays were just 3 hit shut out by the Rays.
  15. We have to start realizing keeping the 2018 team together was not a winning strategy.
  16. It is nice to have 3 guys like Whitlock, Houck and Duran already in the bigs, and guys like Verdugo & Devers just barely older than them. Then, there is Dalbec. Even with none of these guys counting as prospects, we still have a very nice farm: Mayer, Casas, Yorke Bello, Seabold, Groome Jordan, Jimenez, Bonachi, W Gonzalez Downs, Mata, Murphy, Song Winckoski, Wong, Ward, Walter Bleis, Lugo, McDonough, Hickey, Santos
  17. With Kike in CF, I don't miss JBJ's defense.
  18. Schwarber was not looking like a downgrade on defense at 1B, until after the trade and Dalbec suddenly looking like a GG 1Bman. We also looked like we had a minus on offense at 1B at the time of the trade. You really don't see the relevance?
  19. Did you want the games?
  20. No, but some sure sound like they know better than Bloom & Co. Like, he was supposed to know Dalbec would become the best hitter in MLB and begin to defend well, and that our pen- a strength up to that point was going to implode from top to bottom.
  21. We also had hopes that Houck could give us more innings than before the deadline, and he has, plus maybe better health from Arroyo. Our defense has been a major reason we have been losing. I don't recall many posters saying we should trade to upgrade our D.
  22. We certainly are not looking all that good, right now, or recently, but what significance does August first hold? If you chose August 10th, we've been 16-15. Still not great or even good, but it looks better than 18-22. Things can change, pretty quickly. We've seen the Yanks get incredibly hot, then ice cold. We saw the A's looking really good, then melt when faced with a tougher schedule. We've seen the Jays look very beatable, then look unbeatable for the last 3 weeks. My guess is, some team or a couple teams are going to flip the script the rest of the way. One of those teams could be us playing great, or the Rays or Yanks sucking, badly.
