  1. I was thinking we'll start scoring once the pen comes in.
  2. 1. Devers had the range to get that, he just backed off. 2. Bogey took too long to throw the ball. 3. The high throw did not allow Dalbec to full stretch forward to get the out, anyway. Then, a Kike error and a Fenway double. YUCK- a Doodle-Doo!
  3. Yank him. He clearly is lost.
  4. He should be in CF. Not that Arroyo or Marwin are Pedey at 2B,either.
  5. Don't have a good feeling about this.
  6. Andriese better preserve E-O's nice outing.
  7. Yes, but Bogey should have made that play. Even a non high throw would have allowed Dalbec to stretch forward and get the runner out. I'm not sure Devers would have gotten him out.
  8. 2021 All-Star Game, Draft relocated WWW.MLB.COM Major League Baseball announced on Friday that it will relocate the 2021 All-Star Game and MLB Draft, originally scheduled to take place in Atlanta, to a to-be-determined location. The decision comes a little more than a week after the passage of S.B. 202, a Georgia law that President Joe Biden
  9. They wanted to make sure, as much as one can in a "crap shoot" playoff system. Yes, it was overkill. We won a ring, so it was worth it. Now, we pay the price.
  10. Agreed, even if he does well.
  11. Is it retroactive to a certain date?
  12. MLBTR... The Red Sox and right-handed reliever Matt Barnes discussed a contract extension during the spring, but there’s little optimism about a deal coming together, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com writes. That leaves the 30-year-old on track to reach free agency next winter, and in the meantime, he’ll earn $4.5MM this season. The hard-throwing Barnes, a career-long member of the Red Sox, has pitched to a 4.08 ERA with a 29.9 percent strikeout rate in 337 1/3 innings since debuting in 2014. He amassed 60-plus innings in each season from 2016-19.
  13. I was just noting additions and subtractions for two teams that were nearly tied, last year. I agree: the Yanks look better on paper- assuming good health.
  14. Agreed, but certainly our bottom of the order does not have any "black holes.: Vaz has an OPS around .800 from 2019-2020. Dalbec looks very promising. Between Cordero, Marwin, Arroyo, Chavis, Duran and maybe even Downs or Munoz, we should be able to field a decent hitter for our "flex slot."
  15. I do think the Yanks have the best team on paper in the AL East, but they finished 1 ahead of Toronto, and the Jays easily won the offseason. Jays + Springer Semien R Ray S Matz K Yates Chatwood D Phelps Jays - T Walker T Shaw C Anderson J Villar K Giles S Yamaguchi M Shoemaker A Bass C Joseph The Jays clearly got much better. Yankee + Kluber Taillon J Wilson D O'Day J Bruce (minor league) R Chirnos (ml) A Warren (ml) The talk of "Yankee improvement" is based largely on untested or low experience young players and players coming back from serious injuries. Not counting young player contributions, it looks like a wash to me from 2020 to 2021 in outside additions and subtractions for the Yanks. Yankee - Tanaka Paxton Happ Ottavino F German
  16. What's the chances Dalbec ends up as the leagues best #9 hitter?
  17. There is not that many obstructed, but yes, it is a blight.
  18. MLB.com... Pablo Sandoval, 3B, Braves There was this fun moment last October when Sandoval pinch-hit in the NLCS and all of Baseball Twitter woke up to the reality that the Panda was, indeed, on the Atlanta Braves. Now we’ll get to relive that on Opening Day or soon thereafter since the 34-year-old Sandoval made the club as a non-roster invitee. Going into camp, the safer guess would have been that Jason Kipnis would land a reserve infield role after his solid season with the Cubs, but it turns out Pandas, like cats, have nine lives. Garrett Whitlock, RHP, Red Sox Over the course of four appearances in the Grapefruit League, Whitlock threw the equivalent of a fantastic full game -- nine innings, one run, 12 strikeouts, no walks. That was enough to land the Rule 5 Draft pickup a roster spot, and he will be an option out of the bullpen, initially, and perhaps in the rotation eventually. Whitlock is 24 with a mid-90s fastball and a changeup that was a revelation this spring. So he could be fun to watch. And here’s the delicious part for Red Sox fans: Boston took him from the Yankees.
  19. Lindor- 10-year, $341 million deal will keep him in Flushing until his 38th birthday. I think Correa set a date for a deal at opening day- no deal there.
  20. That was the strike year when teams played uneven amounts of games, and the Sox lost the division by 1/2 game! Was that the only time in any major sport where a team lost by 1/2 a game?
