  1. Big confidence bump. ERod & Bogey have been huge, this year. Others helped in smaller ways. It would be nice to keep the streak going for a few more games.
  2. Updated Standings Sox are 9 down on the Yanks (10 in loss column) Sox are 2.5 down on TBR (2 down in loss column) Final WC Slot CLE -- BOS -1 OAK -1 TEX -1.5
  3. A bit more jump in our step on this site, tonight.
  4. Hey, Dylan Bubdy can probably be had for free after tonight's game.
  5. It was Brock's rurn to play, and Cora's moves are beginning to pay off more and more.
  6. Only Sox pitchers with recent struggles suck and have no chance of returning to norm.
  7. No big deal. Not everyone has drank the Marco Kool-Aid.
  8. He's owned about $9M, and the Sox could pay half or more... assuming we decide to sell.
  9. Next few games: LAD ERod LAD Sale LAD Price TOR Porcello TOR Velazquez (Johnson?) TOR ERod TOR Sale @BAL Price @BAL Porcello @BAL Velazquez/Johnson @TBR ERod @TBR Sale @TBR Price NYY Porcello NYY Johnson/Velazquez NYY ERod NYY Sale (Day off) TBR Price +1 day rest TBR Porcello +1 TBR (Trade acquisition? Johnson/Velazquez) @NYY ERod +1 @NYY Sale +1 / @NYY Johnson/Velazquez (Dblhdr) @NYY Price +1 (or, we could pitch Price in the 2nd game of the doubleheader and go with Porcello in game 4 of the series- depends if we pick up a SP'er.)
  10. 1. Although I often post most recent numbers to show possible trends, I've never believed future performance is locked into what a player has done over his last 3-5 games or even a half season. 2. There is ample evidence our starters are among the best in the league, unless you only look at 2019 or their last 3-5 starts. Even Porcello had a 3.50 ERA for 12 starts before this tiny sample size meltdown of late. 3. I have confidence that 3 of the big 4 will do fine the rest of the way. I'm hopeful we can get a decent 5th starter without emptying the farm and we will have home field for the WC game.
  11. Yes, hence the impending steep, rocky drop-off. Some here are acting like the cliff is now.
  12. I don't recall Jacko saying the contract was an overpay at the time of the signing. Many felt he'd get 6-7 years and $30-35M a year.
  13. 3 Free agents. Nothing from the system in sight.
  14. We'll see. I think there will be a few good pitchers that are traded for much less than people think.
  15. Our best prospects are 2-4 years away.
  16. Many felt the years and dollars were lower than expected to begin with, so I doubt a ho-hum 18 game start to 2019 cuts his value by 67%.
  17. Hell, put Chavis out there when Moreland comes back. Even letting Nunez stand out there like a statue would be worth adding Syndegaard.
  18. Our pen has trickled down!
  19. Weber 7 IP 1 ER 1 H 3 BB 3 K Lakins 0 IP 3 ER Kelley 2 IP 1 ER (BS) Castillo 2-4 w 9th HR (.738 OPS) Travis 2-4 w 6th HR Duran & Chatham 0-4 Dalbec 1-2 BB Kent 7 IP 1 ER Brannen 2-5 Casas 1-4 w 3 rbi Granberg 2-5 Machamer 4 IP 0 ER Haworth 4 IP 1 ER
  20. 0-4 with a K. Hopefully, he gets into April form soon.
  21. Exactly. There may only be a handful of teams that might trade for Porcello, assuming he regains form in his next 2-3 starts.
  22. YES! And, people point to game times this year as not being higher than last year's, but we haven't hit September, yet, and this year's average will spike above last year's.
  23. It's obvious, but that doesn't take away from the fact that our expensive and highly regarded starters have under performed, so far. I expect the starters will be fine going forward, even without Eovaldi joining the rotation. Our pen needs the most help, and Eovaldi is not going to be enough, even if he does great.
  24. Yes, and our SP'ing has way under performed.
  25. It does happen, but I agree, we won't get much of anything for Porcello, even if he has 3 good games before the deadline.
