    Kansas just called off school for the school year. Expect others to follow suit. Here in Texas, our district is looking into online lessons.

    Like Trumps kids are now?

    Start the season in August. Have 2 game series with all 14 other in league teams home and away. (56 game season) Seed teams by record- 8 teams per league. 5 game series round 1 then 7 the rest of the way.

    No way Utley, IRod, Jones and Suzuki make my team.

    The Yankees have clearly figured out some things on the development side... Yes, HGH and more...

    It wasn't worded that way. Your point about track & field athletes is a good one.
  7. moonslav59
    I said he has "super-human skills" and mind. He is not a super human athlete. Others throw with more velocity, more accuracy and/or with more "touch." Yes, he puts it all together. What he is best at is rising to the occasion. He has some tremendous skills, some of which are physical. If we are talking about the best sports figures in the last 50 years, I would not argue with his name being on the list. I took the question as being the best physical super-human athletes. Maybe I'm wrong, but in that context, Brady does not belong.

    I don't think the question was who are the best sports players. It was about being "super-human athletes." Brady probably has a "super-human" football mind and skill, but not really the physical skill I think the question implied.

    It hasn't bottomed out yet. Good idea, though.

    If I have to stay inside everyday, and there's no sports to watch, I'll be super bummed out. Buy stock in Netflix.

    At this point, everything is about C-19. Stay safe, my friends.
  12. moonslav59
    Precisely!

    There is a thread for the Coronavirus. This is not it.

    Fine. I prefaced my post with "all healthy."
  17. moonslav59
    Look how much time Moreland has been hurt. I guess we could wait until he gets hurt, then call him up. Fine with me. I just posted what I thought were our best line-ups.
  18. moonslav59
    Dalbec can also play 3B, when Devers rests, and it should be just a matter of days before Moreland is on the IL. I'm also thinking Ockimey might be a good option as a weak side platoon. He's killed lefties for 3 years in the minors.
  19. moonslav59
    March Madness may be played in empty arenas.
  20. moonslav59
    Not really, but trading for one partial salary-dump type is an option.
  21. moonslav59
    Not really true. Nothing is "learned" over small sample sizes. No doubt, it didn't work well in 2019, but here are Beni's career splits (note PAs: 200+ PAs): .951 in 6 slot (99 PAs) .832 in 4 slot (94) .831 in 1 slot (332) .794 in 2 slot (960) .736 in 2 slot (204) .708 in 5 slot (236)
  22. moonslav59
    Here are the career L-R splits: OPS vs RHPs/LHPs Puig .845/.762 (note: reverse splits) Sox vs RHPs .871 Devers (.996 in 2019) .861 Martinez .830 Benintendi .789 Moreland .787 Bogaerts (.950 in 2019) .783 Verdugo .774 Chavis (2019) .757 Lin (129 PAs) .750 JBJ .665 Peraza (platoon) .661 Vazquez (should get rest days vs RHPs only) .648 Plawecki vs LHPs .861 Martinez .845 Bogaerts (.910 in 2019) .785 Verdugo .771 Vazquez .750 Devers (.744 in 2019) .742 Chavis (Peraza vs LHPs at 2B) .738 Peraza .696 Benintendi (consider moving down in line-up vs LHPs) .671 Moreland (should not start vs RHPs) .669 JBJ (platoon?) .599 Plawecki (should only start vs RHPs) .502 Lin (32 PAs)
  23. moonslav59
    Assuming everyone is healthy, I like these line-ups: vs RHPs: 1. L Beni LF 2. R Bogaerts SS 3. L Verdugo RF 4. L Devers 3B 5. R Martinez DH 6. L Moreland 1B 7. R Chavis/Peraza 2B 8. L JBJ CF 9. R Vaz C vs LHPs 1. L Beni 2. R Bogaerts 3. L Verdugo (has hit LHPs equally well) 4. R Martinez 5. L Devers 6. R Chavis 2B 7. R Dalbec 1B 8. R Vaz C 9. L JBJ CF
  24. moonslav59
    I'm a big Dalbec fan, but I think he should start out as a platoon vs LHPs only. Moreland and Ockimey are better choices vs RHPs- the majority of PAs. Here are the recent splits by our possible 2020 1Bmen: OPS vs RHPs/LHPs Dalbec (Bats R) 2019 .753/.950 AAA 2019 .794/.904 AA 2018 .868/.701 AA 2018 .970/.881 A+ Moreland 2019 .887/.598 MLB 2018 .780/.684 MLB 2017 .784/.684 MLB Chavis (bats R) 2019 .774/.742 MLB (slumped 2nd half .649 overall) 2019 .850/1.786 (7 AB) AAA 2018 .917/.644 (33 AB total) AAA 2018 .880/.964 AA Ockimey (Bats L) 2019 .898/.535 AAA 2018 .783/.460 AAA 2018 .968/.586 AA On paper, it looks like Moreland or Ockimey vs RHPs and Dalbec vs LHP. Chavis should not play 1B, unless in an emergency or after a PH situation. If we get Puig, what happens when Verdugo comes back? Bench the $11M JBJ? I'm not against getting Puig, but I'd prefer pitching upgrades.
  25. moonslav59
    Probably not if we hold off surgery for a few more months.
