  1. Wrong AB for that homer, but still a nice blast!
  2. GMs hit & miss all the time. He was a cheap signing. The real mistake is why he is still on the roster and maybe why we got nobody better.
  3. I'm not a betting man, but... (I agree.)
  4. The A's beat the Yanks. Rays up early on SEA 1-0. CWS 1 HOU 1 in the 8th.
  5. It made total sense, and I didn't take it like a criticism. Devers reminds me of Adrian Beltre as a batter. When all the other Sox players couldn't figure out a pitcher in a groove, Beltre would slug a 3 run job to put us in the game.
  6. He's too smart for that. I wouldn't change a thing about Devers. My philosophy has always been that a team needs batters with different approaches.
  7. It's about more than just Verdugo & Co. The savings on the budget will bring us player after player for years and years plus Verdugo and anything we get from Downs and Wong.
  8. One team throws him only fastballs and this one, only sliders.
  9. Was hoping for a crooked number, there.
  10. ERA minus (ERA-) is adjusted and better than ERA. (I should have used OPS Against.)
  11. It makes more sense to think of it this way, but that's not how it's taken. True, you did not say "better than," so you were not wrong. Wording it the way you did here make it more clear.
  12. Does he have a steel plate in his head?
  13. Here are the best team in the AL by record - the 2 numbers to the right are their AL rankings in OPS and ERA-: CWS 3-1 TBR 8-2 OAK 7-5 BOS 4-4 HOU 1-8 CLE 12-6 NYY 9-3 SEA 15-9 LAA 6-11 TOR 2-10 KCR 11-7 DET 13-13 MN 5-14 TEX 14-12 BAL 10-15 NL SFG 3-4 LAD 2-3 NYM 10-1 CHC 5-11 MIL 14-6 SDP 9-5 CIN 1-12 STL 12-9 PHI 8-7 ATL 4-10 WAS 6-8 MIA 13-2 COL 7-14 PIT 15-13 It sure looks like you have a better chance at being a winner, if your pitching is top 5 or 6, but there seem to be a few exceptions to the rule, and there are teams winning more than it appears they should be.
  14. The guy was up and down his whole career. Why do we need a special excuse, this time? He may even get hot, like many years past and end up over .700 or even near .800 again. This is who he is. I miss him, but his time, here, was up.
  15. ARROYO Leading Off!!! 1. Arroyo 2. Verdugo 3. JD 4. Bogey 5. Devers 6. Renfroe 7. Vaz 8. Marwin 1B 9. Santana CF RHP Kyle Zimmer named the KC starter.
  16. RHP Kyle Zimmer named the KC starter.
  17. Maybe he meant, if Beni is your second best hitter, you can't be all that good.
  18. True. I guess I was second biggest. I even went to a 14 year deal.
  19. The difference is 0.100 or 10%. That's not the same as saying .320 is 10% "better than" .220.
  20. I was a huge JBJ fan, but felt he wasn't worth half that contract.
  21. I was the biggest sign Betts to what it takes supporter, and even I know this was a great trade.
  22. People always assume you mean 6% of what your number is now. 6% of that number more.
