    Devers is ahead of JD in hitting, but your point is well-taken. I don't get the rational. We just had several days off (yes with travel), and the AS break is coming soon. BTW, Vaz ranks 13th in the AL in wRC+ since May 1st. JBJ is 12th. I'm counting on ... Marco Freakin' Hernandez!
  2. moonslav59
    Yes, I get it, but my point is we should be able to get 1-2 decent pitchers without giving up Casas, Dalebec, Duran, Mata, Chatham, DHern, Groome, Houk or Flores.

    Maybe he'll be Little Big Man.

    AL Leaders: wRC+ 184 Trout 151 Santana 148 Bregman 144 Devers 139 Voit, Vogelbach & Brantley 138 LeMahieu & Dozier 137 Bogey 135 Moncada 134 Chapman 133 JD Martinez 27th Betts at 121 Since May 1st: 187 Trout 162 Devers 160 Santana 152 Torres 151 LeMahieu 150 Bregman 148 Bogey 145 Ohtani 137 Brantley & Voit 134 JD Martinez 132 JBJ 132 Vazquez Can you believe Vaz & JBJ in the top 13 in a pretty significant sample size of 2+ months!

    The only pitchers we have with an ERA under 4 over the last 4 weeks: ....but look at some of the WHIP! 1.69 Workman (1.50 WHIP) 1.74 Brasier (1.26) 1.86 Taylor (1.03) 2.16 Johnson (1.80 & on IL) 3.38 Hembree (0.38- tiny sample size) 3.75 Brewer (1.75) 3.86 Lakins (1.71) 3.86 JSmith (1.29) No starters. 4.21 ERod 4.55 Sale 5.40 Price 5.85 Porcello The worst (8+ IP) 11.42 Shawaryn 9.90 Walden 8.18 Barnes Last 14 days (3+ IP) 1.59 Brasier (1.06) 2.70 Workman (1.50) 3.00 J Smith (1.00) 3.00 Price (1.33) 3.60 Taylor (1.80) 4.32 ERod (1.26) 5.40 Wright (2.00) 6.23 Velazquez (1.61) 7.71 Brewer (1.93) 7.71 Sale (1.54) 12.27 Barnes 14.54 Walden 15.63 Porcello

    Maybe Beni will now go on a white hot hitting streak!

    Addison Reed did not cost a Ty Buttrey. While Beeks has looked good after the trade, not many cared when we sent him packing to get Eovaldi. I think we can get 1-2 solid pitchers- not great for scraps that may or may not turn into Beeks or Buttrey.
  8. moonslav59
    The Astros are pretty scary when all are healthy, and they may make a big splash at the deadline. I'm not counting us out, yet. One long winning stretch may get us right back into the conversation.
  9. moonslav59
    Man! This is sad. When healthy, this kid was one of the best.
  10. moonslav59
    Yes, it is probably his best defensive position. He's probably better on defense than Holt, and I feel he is clearly better than Nunez.
  11. moonslav59
    Yes! Someone even said he should be sent down to AAA to work on his swing and defensive footwork. Others wanted him traded. You never hear from those guys anymore, except when they say the same things about their next punching bag.
  12. moonslav59
    If we trade for a SP'er, then Velazquez or Johnson go to the pen, and maybe Walden or Taylor gets booted to AAA. While a good SP'er would be an upgrade over Velazquez/Johnson, the pen would not improve at all, except for possible less innings needed every 5 days. I'd still rather get a solid closer and keep an 8 man pen that compensates for our 5th starter going 1-3 innings most of the time.
  13. moonslav59
    He does seem like the most likely trade chip this summer, but with Chavis' success and openings at 2B and 1B next year, we may keep him in the fold. Chavis could play 2B and Dalbec 1B.
  14. moonslav59
    I think we can all agree. He's... Rafael Freakin' Devers!
  15. moonslav59
    Yes, but I'm cutting some slack.
  16. moonslav59
    ...so they are worse vs s***** teams...
  17. moonslav59
    ...kinda what Chavis looked like, right?
  18. moonslav59
    Duran 4 for 5 tonight. Chatham 2-4 Curletta 2-3 HR BB Matheny 7th HR Downs 1st HR Casas 15th HR Granberg 7th HR Shugart goes to 4-0 with a 1.76 ERA (6.1 IP 0 ER 4 H 3 BB 5K)
  19. moonslav59
    I agree, but I think we trade for a pen solid arm. I don't think the cost will need to be as high as many feel it has to be. We may not get a big name pitcher, but we should be able to get a useful piece. Then, we need some magic from maybe 2 of these 3: Wright, Hembree and Eovaldi, or see a resurgence from Barnes & Noble....err...I mean Barnes and Brasier. It is possible. ________ (acquisition) Eovaldi Workman Barnes Hembree Brasier Wright Brewer or Velazquez or Johnson (whoever is not the 5th starter) or Taylor as the 8th pen man.
  20. moonslav59
    He did very well for a long time. I feel bad for the guy, but he may need some time at AAA tp try and regain his mojo.
  21. moonslav59
    I hate to be negative after a win, but I think Walden is toast.
  22. moonslav59
    Devers is giving him a strong challenge for team MVP.
  23. moonslav59
    Just 2 down from the WC and 2.5 behind TB for the #1 WC slot. It's been a roller coaster season.
  24. moonslav59
    Walden's magic has run its course.
  25. moonslav59
    We got Eovaldi for Beeks, last summer. Although Beeks has done well, nobody had him ranked higher than some scrubs we have on the farm right now.
