    24 strikes 23 balls

    Sat down just in time for the first pitch.

    Luis Garcia jumped from A ball to the bigs, last year, and has looked pretty good in his 58 IP (2.93 ERA and 1.101 WHIP.) He only has 205 IP in the low minors (2.50 & 1.166). These kind of guys seem to do well vs the Sox, but I like having Richards on the mound. Both pitchers are a little high on the BB/9 but do well on H/9. It would help to get to this guy early. I’m leaving soon to find a free parking spot and enjoy some dollar hot dogs! GO SOX!!!

    No doubt.
  5. moonslav59
    Yes, it was, but only getting 60 games of Betts in his prime was a loss for the Dodgers and their viewers and fans.

    Marwin's leash lengthens further.
  7. moonslav59
    ...and Odorizzi!

    They also excel at the things stats don't cover as well as defense, smart base-running and good management. Their pitching has looked real good, recently, but it is not a given this will continue.
  9. moonslav59
    Well, his high impact years have not worked out very, so far. 2020 was a 60 game season. This year has been a let down over the first third of the year.
  10. moonslav59
    With a righty going, I'd keep Dalbec on the bench. Santana at 1B, Arroyo at 2B, Kike in CF.
  11. moonslav59
    I don't think managers make these calls based on someone's last 5 games, but I don't disagree with your current choice.
  12. moonslav59
    Base running is sustainable. Timely hitting is not.
  13. moonslav59
    Good analysis, Nick.
  14. moonslav59
    An early exit from the wild card slot might be enough. Boone should have been long gone.
  15. moonslav59
    If they project Davis as a ML catcher, he may be their pick. If they see him as a 1Bman, maybe not. Catchers are hard to project value.
  16. moonslav59
    I only said fire Boone, now, but I assumed Cashman would get the axe by the fall. too.

    I'm no guru. I just read it somewhere. Here are some possible players with BTV's values. Mets (notin suggested maybe Ginn) Lee, the guy they got from KC has a current value of 9.3 Vientos 3B 13.2 (unlikely as we got Winckowski, too) Ramirez OF 5.4 Ginn RHP 4.9 Dominguez RHP 2.6 Palmer 3B 2.4 Valdez OF 2.4 Santos RHP 2.3 (They have no prospects valued between 13.2 and 5.4, which is about what I'd expect us to get.) 2 from KC (Beni is currently valued at 10.8 and we are paying part of his contract) Kowar RHP 16.8 (nope) Loftin SS 9.3 (unlikely) Pena OF 8.5 (unlikely) Marsh RHP 7.5 Pratto 1B 6.8 Cox LHP 5.8 Melendez C 4.8 Bowlan RHP 3.8 Guzman SS 3.1 Hernandez RHP 2.6 Vasquez SS 2.6 Fox SS 2.3 Candelario SS 2.0 Several prospects between 1 and 1.8. For reference, they have Sox prospects valued at... 9.9 Mata 7.6 Yorke 5.4 Seabold 5.3 Ward 5.0 Lugo 4.3 Groome 3.8 Song 3.5 Whitlock 3.3 Rosario 3.1 Wong 3.0 Murphy 2.6 Decker 2.4 Bonaci, Jordan & Potts
  18. moonslav59
    Exactly!
  19. moonslav59
    No ERod. We got a chance. The 'Stros have been handing games away, left and right, recently. It's our turn, tomorrow.
  20. moonslav59
    I’m bringing the Maine mojo to tomorrow’s game. Go Sox,
  21. moonslav59
    Yet he bats 9th.
  22. moonslav59
    This is just his 4th straight bad start. On May 7th, he went 5 innings allowing 1 run. 7 hits and 3 BB with just 2 Ks were still concerning, but that was a decent start. He had 4 bad starts in his previous 5 starts before today. 6.48 May ERA, before today.
  23. moonslav59
    They handled him just right out of the gate, IMO, but why say you are going to stretch him out and then not do it? Stretching out does not mean use more often. It means use for more batters and innings, when you do use him. His getting shelled in a couple games may have been part of the reason to apply the brakes a little, but here is his game logs since the April 19th statement: (Days off) IP- pitches (4) 2.1 -41 (5) 2.0- 31 (4) 1.0- 15 (HR) (3) 1.0- 23 (HR) (2) 2.0- 27 (6) 3.0- 52 (finally a sign of stretching!) (6) 0.1- 15 (HR) (2) 1.2- 35 (4) 2.0- 36 I'm just not seeing the effort to turn him into a starter.
  24. moonslav59
    He probably needs a rest. I'd yank him and 10 day IL him. It's getting too predictable, now.
  25. moonslav59
    Marwin's leash has been very long.
