  1. Even .469 is better than Dalbec, recently. That's the point. It's not about having confidence in Chavis, who has actually done something in the bigs, already- and pretty recently, too.
  2. Nor should having the best catching prospect in all of baseball. Catchers are hard to find. If both turned out to be great, the trade value of one would be enormous.
  3. Chavis hitting .650 is a plus over Dalbec hitting .450 or Santana hitting .200, recently.
  4. It's .758 in MLB, this year, not AAA. Granted, it was just 33 PAs, but his career MLB OPs is .730 over almost 600 PAs- a bigger sample size than Dalbec's.
  5. Dice-K's career 4.45 ERA was not really horrific. (4.52 with the Sox) It was 4.14 his first 2 years with the Sox and 4.18 his first 4 years (to age 30). How about these forgettable names and their ERA with the Sox: 6.52 Jin Ho Cho (58 IP) 6.50 Sun-Woo Kim (71 IP) Not so forgettable: 4.50 Hideo Nomo (198) 3.72 Byung-Hyun Kim (97) The Memorable: 3.58 Tazawa (312) 3.09 Okajima (250) 2.19 Uehara (226)
  6. .758 is like 200 points better than Dalbec and Santana, especially of late. .422 Dalbec in his last 54 PAs .595 Dalbec this year .188 Santana last 27 PAs .530 Santana this year Chavis is no savior, but if he can just hit .650, it would be a big plus. I also think he has the potential to hit .750 to .780.
  7. Stallings has turned into a decent catcher and has 3 years of control left. Putting aside the whole idea of drafting for position with the #1 pick, which hardly anyone advocates, I'm not even sure that's their highest area of need- long-term. BTV also has their 10th highest valued prospect listed as a catcher (Rodriguez). If they really need a young catcher, maybe we can trade them Ronaldo Hernandez for Adam Frazier (.864) with 1 more year of team control and Cole Tucker (OF). Then, we can draft Davis at 4.
  8. Maybe we could trade him straight up for that guy named Beni, who plays for the Royals.
  9. I live in Sugar Land, which is just SW of Houston. Very safe, clean and diverse. There are very bad parts of town, but I avoid those areas.
  10. Boone is a genius. Extend him, now!
  11. It's a very diverse city, and there are a lot of things to do. Great restaurant choices. Museums and parks. Beaches nearby. Not as red neck as it used to be.
  12. I stopped the bleeding. Now, I pass the torch. I'm still disappointed that after winning 5, one loss brings out so much negativity, but I guess that's something that will never change.
  13. If someone asked me what would be the last state I'd choose to live, Texas would be near the top of the list. If someone asked me what would be the last city I'd choose to live in Texas, Houston would have been on the top of that list. I've lived here for 14 years. It's not as bad as I expected.
  14. Hey! Bobby Dee did NOT strike out! Call Mom!
  15. Worcester won 11-4 Cordero & Munoz had 3 hits Arauz had 2 w a HR. Same with Wilson. Wong hit a granny Weber went 7 allowing 2 runs. Portland won 9-8. Meneses with 2 hits, HR, 4 rbi Politi got shelled.
  16. I've been his biggest supporter, and I think he needs to be sent to AAA to try and work out some issues. Bring up Chavis. Santana is the next on the hot seat.
  17. I've liked Arroyo, too, and I'm not so sure it is warranted.
  18. Many are better, defensively than Bogey, so why convert them?
  19. Some pen arms have done really well, lately. OPS against Last 7 days .488 Sawamura .489 DHern .550 Barnes .624 Ottavino .661 Taylor .682 Whitlock Starters: .491 Perez .701 ERod .740 Pivetta .760 Eovaldi .833 Richards Last 14 days .457 DHern .503 Ottavino .582 Sawamura .504 Whitlock .641 Barnes Last 28 days .472 Ottavino .507 DHern .546 Taylor .626 Sawamura .648 Barnes .758 Whitlock
  20. I was for Marisnick from day one, but not because I thought he was the best choice or that he'd have a good year. I wanted him for his low contract, good D, and hoping we could use the money saved on someone like Odorizzi or a closer. I thought Semien was too expensive for this year's situation.
  21. Does it go back to the time KC won without any real SP'ing? People thought, hmm... maybe we can win with just defense, speed and a pen.
