  1. Do these stats point to just how bad our defense is? 1st BAbip against at .324 (next team at .308) We have the 4th lowest Hard Hit% against in MLB. 4th FIP- at 86 (1st in AL in FIP) 3rd best HR/FB at 9.7% Maybe it's more about our defense than our pitching, this year.
  2. I'm no draft expert, but I say college: Rocker. I'm now hoping we get Leiter or Davis. (That wish might change in the next hour.)
  3. I don't see him making it to 4, but I'd be dumbfounded, if we pass on him.
  4. Fast arrival is hardly even the norm for the best of the very best. None of our prospects are even near that category.
  5. Betting on baseball has to be one of the most absurd things to do.
  6. Before tonight's game our pitching was... ALL MLB T 8th in ERA- at 90 4th FIP- at 86 (1st in AL in FIP) 3rd best HR/FB at 9.7% 1st BAbip at .324 (next team at .308)- nice D, huh? (We have the 4th lowest Hard Hit% against in MLB, yet the highest BAbip.) 22nd in WHIP (11th in AL in WHIP at 1.35.) -fangraphs
  7. Need Erod to be the stopper. I'm not feeling very confident.
  8. This team is going all streaky, now. Jekyll & Hyde.
  9. The Astros pen has been giving away games all year. I guess no gift to us.
  10. Lots of line outs by Devers over the last few days. Really could have used a hit, there.
  11. On the farm, tonight... Worcester 12-5 Cordero & Chavis both 3 for 4. Chavis with a HR/Cordero a 2B. Wilson 2 for 5 with his 8th HR. Mieses with a HR. Portland 5-4 Meneses with a 2-run 2B Duran 0-3
  12. It wouldn't surprise me, if teams were still stealing signs. The Astros lost 2 draft picks, so maybe they are not one of them.
  13. We've scored 3 runs in 4 innings. How is Odorizzi "mowing us down?"
  14. Devers has been hitting the ball damn hard- even his outs.
  15. It’s not like Bogey is a great defensive SS, and he has an opt out after 2022, so keeping Downs at SS makes a lot of sense, for now.
  16. Agreed. I don’t see us having any serious roster crunch or Losing anyone special to rule 5, this winter.
  17. soxprospects.com projects the newbies to be at these levels in 2022: MLB Franchy Cordero (4 OF) AAA Josh Winckowski (SP) AA Grant Gambrell (SP) A- Freddy Valdez (RF) A- Luis de la Rosa (SP) They also project Downs in MLB, on the bench, Duran starting in CF, Whitlock as one of our 6 starters and Houck in the pen. Casas in AAA with Rosario, Arauz, Pott, Wong and Wilson. They go out of their way to say this is just speculation.
  18. Here is the full rule 5 list: Jecorrah Arnold Brayan Bello Cole Brannen Gary Calvo Marco Cardoso Pedro Castellanos Felix Cepeda Kole Cottam Kutter Crawford Ricardo Cubillan Osvaldo De La Rosa Tyler Dearden Jonathan Diaz Danny Diaz Jeter Downs Jarren Duran Tyler Esplin Durbin Feltman Ryan Fernandez Ryan Fitzgerald Antoni Flores Frank German Rio Gomez Devlin Granberg Gilberto Jimenez Jose Larez Dominic LoBrutto Bryan Lucas Charlie Madden Alan Marrero Elih Marrero Joan Martinez Alexander Montero Robinson Montero Oddanier Mosqueda Brendan Nail Brett Netzer Tanner Nishioka Kaleb Ort Michael Osinski Yusniel Padron-Artiles Aaron Perry Beiker Pineda Antonio Police AJ Politi Ceddanne Rafaela Oscar Rangel Tyreque Reed Jesus Rosillo Yasel Santana Zach Schellinger Alex Scherff John Schreiber Gregori Segovia Chase Shugart Miguel Suero Jake Thompson Wilker Vargas Thaddeus Ward Grant Williams Josh Winckowski
  19. I know. I was just jiving you, but I never was all that high on Swihart. (I'm not thrilled with how Vaz handles the pitchers, either, but the coaching and manager can help that out a lot.)
  20. I know we are in the midst of a playoff run, and we can't keep throwing a sub .600 bat in the 1B slot in the line-up much longer, but we have to find out about Dalbec and Chavis, this year. I doubt we keep both in 2022, if they continue struggling. This was supposed to be the decision year on some of these borderline players, but we done went ahead and started winning, and messed up all those plans!
