  1. That's what I said last night. (This is also why it is foolish to bet on baseball.)
  2. He'll be manic after this game.
  3. Two Threes Don't grow on trees We all can agree How about another 3?
  4. The band wagon just lowered their running boards. All aboard!
  5. It was meant to be funny, but my point was still a good one. People say, "Keep Bogey batting 4th: he's comfortable there." Very few ML baseball players hit 9th in their whole life. Then, they are thrust into the 9 slot and expected to feel warm and cozy. (more sarcasm) These guys can hit anywhere, and after the first inning, it hardly matters.
  6. I figured that. Think this will lessen the brutality towards Franchy? (LOL)
  7. All hands on Dalbec! (I was gonna say "Balldeck.")
  8. He's actually only been half bad, lately. .731 last 14 days.
  9. Bobby Dee! Just needed to get out of that 9 slot. Totally unfamiliar with that role.
  10. There's a nice multi-curved crooked number!
  11. Due to side affects of vaccine. Will he miss a start, tomorrow? With Houck shut down, will we go with an opener? (Whitlock or Andriese)
  12. JD in LF, tonight. Speaking of JD, MLBTR reports... J.D. Martinez, OF/DH, Red Sox ($19.375MM player option for 2022): An ugly 2020 season had many wondering whether Martinez was beginning to decline. It seems safe to stop wondering. The first few weeks of the 2021 season have been some of the finest of JDM’s career; offense around the league is down, but he apparently didn’t get the memo, as he’s destroyed opposing pitchers at a .331/.416/.632 clip. His 10 dingers give him a share of the MLB lead. While there were some conflicting reports on the number of opt-outs in his contract at the time of the deal, MLBTR confirmed this week that Martinez has a $19.375MM player option for the 2022 season on his deal, so he’s controlling his own fate, so to speak. If he keeps hitting like this, why wouldn’t he test the market again (or at least parlay his performance into an extension in Boston)?
  13. It's names like his that ends up promoting Dalbec to the 8 slot!
  14. He most likely does. Sometimes, they say things to help with confidence or trade value. I believe he is really high on Duran, but we don't know when he will think he's ML ready. That's the big unknown, right now. It could just be days, as he wants him to play a few games before being called up, or it might be something major he wants him to work through before a call-up.
  15. I still think will be the most common OF alignment: LF: Verdugo/ Cordero or Santana/Marwin CF: Kike RF: Verdugo/ Renfroe This assumes Arroyo is healthy and doing well at 2B.
  16. But, Duran is not playing LF at AAA, so even more time will be needed, if that is the plan.
  17. I'm from Portland: we want to watch rockets launched, too.
  18. 29, 27, 28, 29, 34, these days is nearly "iron man."
  19. Exactly. We really don't want Renfroe playing FT, especially against every RHP. We may end up using Kike in the OF, instead of Cordero/Renfroe, but that's assuming Arroyo does not disappoint going forward...
  20. If he does well in 150-300 at AAA, and we have a need in the OF, he'll get another look-see.
  21. Maybe Yankee starters have been "over perfoming," too, and maybe the Yankee line-up is "legitimately" not all that good.
  22. Here's my stab at the all Sox prospects team (Major in the Minors or Minor in the Majors): C: Ronaldo Hernandez, Connor Wong (Chris Hermann) 1B: Triston Casas, Josh Ockimey (Michael Chavis) 2B: Nick Yorke (Danny Santana) SS: Jeter Downs (Jonatahan Arauz) Matthew Lugo 3B: Hudson Potts (Yairo Munoz) Brainer Bonaci/Blaze Jordan LF: Gilberto Jimenez, Marcus Wilson CF: Jarren Duran RF: Jeisson Rosario, Nick Decker Utility: Jack Lopez SP: (Garrett Whitlock, Tanner Houck), Conner Seabold, Noah Song, Bryan Mata, Thaddeus Ward, Jay Groome, Josh Winckowski, Frank German (Ryan Weber) P: (Eduard Bazardo) Aldo Ramirez, Brayan Bello, Chris Murphy, Jacob Wallace, Durbin Feltman
