    Sox OPS by position .902 RF (Yes, Abreu can hit lefties) .899 1B (Alonso who?) _________________________ .700 CF (Rafaela seems pretty steady, now.) .673 LF (Duran & Anthony mostly) _________________________ .615 Catcher (Without Wong catcher would be near last) .576 DH (mostly Anthony & Masa) .531 2B (mostly Mayer) .440 3B (Durbin off to a really bad start.) ________________________ Our worst batting slot is 2nd at .461 Our 7-9 is .683, while our 1-2 is .521. Team OPS is .664, but... .757 RISP (seems impossible) .695 Men On Base & 2 outs RISP .584 Late & Close and .536 High Leverage (seems about what I expected)

    Uberstine (sore shoulder) and Valera (elbow inflamation) both placed on 7 day IL.
  3. moonslav59
    Crawford to get an MRI on the forearm. I think we have to totally write of Kutter and Sandoval for 2026.

    Facing a tough lefty, today. I wonder if Cora keeps Contreras 2nd and Abreu 3rd (.842 v L, this year in a SSS.)
  7. moonslav59
    I don't disagree, but have a look-see at other ALE teams and their top 9 batters' BA: NYY .140 McMahon .145 Grisham .174 Chisholm .184 Wells .215 Caballero (Goldschmidt is at .188 w 20 PAs) TOR .094 Lukes .185 Springer .188 Okamoto .194 Schneider (.053 Barger in 23 PAs/.174 Valenzuela in 24) BAL .148 Basallo .167 Mayo .195 Cowser .200 Henderson (most PAs on team) (Alonso is at .216) TBR has 3 guys below .214

    Wong da man, now.
  9. moonslav59
    We are 8-11. Maybe we are 9-10 with Story at 2B.
  10. moonslav59
    Story has also slipped a little with the glove and range, but it's the arm that is the major issue. Not only does he make to many bad throws, the slow throws don't show up on FLDG% or Error counts. I actually like Story, and while the Ks are bothersome, he seems to get more than his fair share of RBIs, so I've lived with it. Ideally he bats 7th vs R and 6th v L, and plays 2B. Who plays 2B and 3B is a secondary issue.
  11. moonslav59
    Nice post. I'm no expert on this stuff, but whatever it was, it was nasty as hell.
  12. moonslav59
    TOR is still playing, but the ALE looks like this: 11-8 TBR 11-9 NYY -0.5 10-10 BAL -1.5 8-11 BOS -3.0 (2 GB last WC slot) 7-11 TOR -3.5
  13. moonslav59
    He's got that extra gear nobody else has.
  14. moonslav59
    Not even Monty Python.
  15. moonslav59
    Yoshida for Mayor!
  16. moonslav59
    Nobody expected the Sox to have such little power. LMAO!
  17. moonslav59
    Now that is the Suarez we signed him for.
  18. moonslav59
    You're racist! K-K-K! (LOL)
  19. moonslav59
    Could be, but Story is here in 2027, and he's still the best hitter of them all (not saying much.) I'm not sure they flip-flop Durbin and Mayer from 3B to 2B. Maybe... 2027: SS Arias 2B Story (Mayer) 3B Mayer/Durbin platoon 2028: SS: Arias 3B: Mayer or Durbin 2B: Durbin or Mayer
  20. moonslav59
    I was overly hyped on Cespedes a couple years back, all but gave up on him and now this... How about Arias, who keeps seeing his OPS go up? He homered tonight!
  21. moonslav59
    I suggested Contreras 2nd and Abreu 3rd a while ago, but never thought Cora would do it.
  22. moonslav59
    Story sucks at SS, and he's been in decline on defense for a long enough time to believe the numbers. He's tied for last in OAA. He's 17th out of 23 in DRS. IMO, as long as Mayer is in the line-up (a separate issue) I'd play Mayer at SS and Story at 2B. If we replace Mayer with Cheng or Monasterio, I'd still keep Story at 2B. (Maybe not for Monasterio.)
  23. moonslav59
    Five defensive runs saved is not all that great. (13th in MLB) Hey, here is an encouraging view... https://www.mlb.com/news/how-red-sox-can-improve-hitting-pitching-in-2026
  24. moonslav59
    Richard Fitts out for the season.
  25. moonslav59
    Hey, we no longer have the worst record in the AL. We are currently tied for the 3rd/4th worst w TOR. In terms of GB not winning %, we are tied with 4 teams for the the 10th best record in the AL. We are 2.5 GB the 4th best AL record. Whodathunk the Rays would be #1 and MIN #2? The A's are 4th and Rangers 5th!
