    It's a beautiful looking park, and I love going to games there, but it's really not comfortable. TB's stadium is not beautiful, but it is very comfortable, climate-controlled and clean.

    I have about as much faith (or more) in a Dalbec-Ockimey 1B platoon as I do in Chavis-Travis. I think the best place for Chavis to make a mark is 2B, where a .725 OPS is good.

    It may not be hard to find a replacement that can give us a 5.25 ERA, but the 6 IP per start part is not easy. We can't afford having Porcello's replacement averaging 4.1 IP. That being said, I am not for bringing Rick back, unless he settles for $10-12M/2, and that ain't happening. So, thanks for the memories, Rick. I have no hard feelings, but it's time to move on.

    I think the whole terrible park thing is overblown. I went to a game in TB and actually liked the park and experience. Fenway is nice and has history, but it really is an uncomfortable park to watch a game. The whole 1B side grandstand sections are facing CF not the pitcher's mound. The seats are too small. The restrooms are gloomy and stinky and too few.

    Agreed, but this list has some interesting numbers: TB has 4 in the top 42 and 6 in the top 95. NYY has 3 between 63 and 83. That's better than our 1 at 86, but none in the top 62 is not all that great.

    Wow! I've always wanted to do that!

    How about the last 20 years with 345+ PAs as the limit? .872 VTek .863 VTek .856 VTek .844 Martinez .804 Salty '13 .798 Vaz .787 VTek .742 Salty '12 .737 Salty '11 .735 Vaz '17 Only top 10 listed.

    I hope he can end up over .800. Top Sox Catcher OPS over the last 40 years: .872 VTek '04 .863 VTek '03 .856 VTek '05 .846 Gedman '85 .844 VMart '10 .819 Fisk '80 .813 VTek '99 .798 Vazquez '19 (after tonight) .787 VTek '07 .739 Gedman '86 .730 VTek '00 .724 VTek '02 .670 Pena '90 .612 Pena .91 All who qualified are listed.

    I went to the Phil Collins concert, last night, here in Houston. Everyone was talking about it. Phil dedicated a song to Mookie. The screen behind the band kept showing the play over and over to the beats of the songs. The whole world is on Mookie fire!

    Ben had a pretty long leash with 3 last place finishes before DD, so I'm not sure 1 firing is going to scare everyone away. This team wins. That's attractive to everyone.
  11. moonslav59
    I agree, except for maybe JBJ being traded or non tendered. I think the biggest splash possibility would be trading JD.
  12. moonslav59
    That seems about right, but it would be fun, if BA had ours ahead.
  13. moonslav59
    Are two very good RP'ers better than one great closer? Here's a good read. (Stat geek avoid.) https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/the-case-for-a-second-tier-closer/
  14. moonslav59
    His numbers are not much different from last year- just the wins and IP'd are up.
  15. moonslav59
    I doubt anyone wants either one.
  16. moonslav59
    Maybe if they hire someone else, he'll clean house.
  17. moonslav59
    The funny thing would be if they were ranked ahead of all the Yankee prospects he's been gushing over, recently.

    3 guys in the top 100: Nice! "Power hitters Triston Casas and Bobby Dalbec as well as 20-year-old starter Bryan Mata earned spots on Baseball America’s top 100 list after the preseason list included no Red Sox prospects." Anybody know what numbers they are?
  20. moonslav59
    Sometimes even a symbolic gesture of a trade can help morale. None happened.
  21. moonslav59
    So, of the latest 3 we know off, 2 have us at #30 and 1 at #22.
  22. moonslav59
    Well, if that is true, BA is a respectable, and that would be a good sign, but my guess is we will be ranked between 26-30 by most services.
  23. moonslav59
    I still see #30. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2847603-updated-mlb-farm-system-rankings-after-2019-trade-deadline#slide0

    Great concert. Man, Phil looks old! He walked out with a cane and had to sit for the whole concert. Great band- 15 members. Very good show.
  25. moonslav59
    I'm at the Phil Collins concert, now. I'll "fill" you in later.
