    I thought of that. Apparently, they value Renfroe's arm. Verdugo's career RF numbers: (627 innings) -0.3 UZR/150 (better than Renfroe's) +1.3 ARM 0.0 RngR -1.3 ErrR +3 DRS

    We'd be tied with the Rays with just average D, IMO.
  3. moonslav59
    He lacks range, too. Little speed, slow breaks, but it seems like he usually takes the right route, but yes, dropping easy fly outs is not good. What's the Sox record for errors by a RF'er? Here are his fangraph ratings in RF: 0 DRS (thanks to his arm) -1.2 UZR/150 +2.1 ARM -1.0 RngR -1.7 ErrR Career +13 DRS -0.5 UZR/150 +7.3 ARM -1.6 RngR -6.1 ErrR He only has 41 innings in CF Career, he's a plus in LF: (954 innings) -1 DRS 1.1 UZR/150 He must be close.

    I remember well. I disagreed, then, and they figured it out, later.
  5. moonslav59
    Agreed. What I meant by surprised was, before ST'ing started, I thought he'd play LF with Verdugo in RF and Kike in CF. His arm surprised me, too, but his overall D sucks.
  6. moonslav59
    We even added a defensive 1Bman a few times. Mientkiewicz was the most well know.
  7. moonslav59
    I think Bloom's hands were tied at SS, C and 3B. It also looked like Dalbec was going to get a long look at 1B. As fans, we did not see what was coming in the OF and 2B. Many felt Kike was signed for 2B and an emergency OF'er. Many felt Verdugo would play CF or RF- Maybe Renfroe-Cordero platoon in LF or all 3 playing everyday, and Duran joining mid season. (Marwin in the OF, too.) Renfroe in RF surprised me.
  8. moonslav59
    I thought the plan was some sort of platoon between Renfroe, Verdugo and Cordero in the corners and Kike in CF with Arroyo at 2B.
  9. moonslav59
    Agreed. He planned on mawrin not sucking so bad at the plate, and did not replace him with a defensive utility player. Duran, Santana & Schwarber are worse than the starters on D.
  10. moonslav59
    They've also been one of the league's best offensive teams, the last month or two. They are better than they look and Means is back.
  11. moonslav59
    Fixed it for you (add SEA game, today.)

    3-way tie for the 2 wild card slots, with SEA and OAK losing ground and time. A look at the Sox OPS: .887 Devers .886 Schwarber .879 Bogey .867 JD .812 Renfroe .789 Verdugo .786 Dalbec .782 Kike .777 Arroyo .724 Plawecki .662 Vaz .564 Marwin 15-150 PAs .977 Iggy .960 Shaw .896 Wong .643 Arauz .597 Santana .578 Duran .549 Chavis .497 Cordero
  15. moonslav59
    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.
  16. moonslav59
    Nice win. Now, win tomorrow and start a trend.
  17. moonslav59
    That's all we needed to break the hex. The floodgates will be opened for the rest of the season. Mark my words.
  18. moonslav59
    Wow, an extra base hit with men on base! How long has it been?
  19. moonslav59
    Call these guys the Solo gang!
  20. moonslav59
    Take Nate out, now.
  21. moonslav59
    Yes, but he looks like toast, now.
  22. moonslav59
    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.
  23. moonslav59
    Renfroe can redeem himself, here.
  24. moonslav59
    Everyone else would have against us.
  25. moonslav59
    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.
