  1. Verdugo is lobbying for a platoon. (It shouldn't be Duran.)
  2. Max is the ace. I'm just the stopper.
  3. TB just tied up the Braves in the 8th.
  4. 3-4-5-3 That's how many wins the Sox have had after I started a game thread. It's up to one, now. Will we hit 4 and keep the pattern going, or will I "regress to the norm?"
  5. What a great start to the second half of the season. All the attention was on Duran, yet Houck sneaks in a masterpiece.
  6. Agreed, and with double headers on the horizon, let's give Barnes and Ottavino another breather.
  7. So many of our off season questions are being answered in good ways. We tend to hear more about the ones that are not, but such is the way of the world.
  8. With Panda we hoped his OPS could reach his weight.
  9. Nothing like a good stiff drink of JD!
  10. When I said he reminds me of Pedey, I meant his approach. The guy has grit.
  11. The official moves today: Brice DFA'd- Duran added to 40 man and called up. Marwin placed on 10 day IL (right hamstring)- Houck called up. Santana sent on rehab assignment to AAA.
  12. Good to see Houck get off to a nice start upon his return. I think a relief role will fit hi very well.
  13. Good one. Hey, they guy can hit his weight!
  14. Actually, I said this after his last HR. Yes, it's a bit premature, but this guy looks like a grinder. He actually reminds me of Pedey. (Not saying he will be that great, but his approach is similar.)
  15. That's exactly how I see it. He was a very good set-up man from 2017-2020 combined. I'm glad we extended him.
  16. Can we all agree, Arroyo has won the 2B job full time?
  17. This year, Dalbec is .599 v RHPs and .799 vs LHPs. That .799 number is top 9 on the team, so yes, he should play vs LHPs. Why bench a .799 hitter so one of these guys play instead? 2021 OPS vs LHPs .506 Verdugo (Why is nobody talking Verdugo platoon? He's .687 career.) .521 Vaz (cant't platoon with anyone buy Plawecki/Wong) .616 Santana .683 Devers (do not platoon Devers) .700 Chavis .752 Plawecki .784 Kike (.816 career) .788 Marwin (.728 career) .798 Dalbec (.859 career) .858 Arroyo (career splits are nearly identical but in the 680's)
  18. Dalbec can play vs every LHP. That may be only 3-4 times out of 10 games. Arroyo or Kike play 1B vs RHPs. The other plays 2B. vs LHPs, Arroyo plays 2B and Kike plays the OF as Verdugo or Duran sit.
  19. Brice officially DFA'd to make room for Duran.
  20. I already admitted that was hyperbole, but keep drilling it home, if you enjoy that. I still say it was a steal.
  21. New thread for this?
