    Tony C. would have, if only...

    2018 Playoff ERA 0.00 Hembree 0.79 Kelly Although Kelly had 11.1 IP to Hembree's 4.2 (no hits but 5 BBs).
  4. moonslav59
    Maybe. Maybe some understate them.

    John Henry's teams have nothing to do with Dick Williams. Williams was a very fine manager, but he's in the HOF for what he did with other teams-- not the Sox.
  6. moonslav59
    Strength of teams on paper is a big factor, but I'm just going by what I see and have seen. I wasn't a Sox fan and didn't watch the Sox until the early 70's. Cora is the best I've seen.
  7. moonslav59
    One year that lost game 7. BTW, Farrell had a last to first & ring to his credit, as well as a first to last-last.
  8. moonslav59
    1) I didn't bring up Jimmy Williams. 2) Dick Williams had 3 years to win a ring in Boston and got zero. 3) Cora 1 Williams 0 I respect your point of view as well, and have supported Dick Williams in the debate vs Terry F. To me, Cora instilled "fire & desire" into a team that had a history of bonehead plays, lack of focus and more. Yes, he had a nice team, on paper, but he turned the team around.

    We are so lucky Trump only hired the best people.
  10. moonslav59
    We're 1.5 GB the Guardians for the last wild card slot, and they just lost kluber. We're 3.0 behind the Yanks (4 in loss column). We're 5.0 behind the Rays (6 in loss column). Last 10: 8-2 Sox 6-4 TBR 6-4 NYY 4-6 CLE
  11. moonslav59
    He was great, but my point was best SOX manager of all time. (BTW, I was around in '67, but was not a Sox fan then.) I might agree the Dick Williams was the greatest manager to have ever coached the Sox during his career, and 9th to the WS is an amazing accomplishment, but the other two years were troublesome, he never won a ring, and apparently Yaz undermined his authority.
  12. moonslav59
    Funny!
  13. moonslav59
    I remember Dick Williams, and yes, Terry was good, too, but saying any Sox manager is the best ever is not saying all that much. BTW, Terry had massive amounts of talent. Williams not as much, but then again, he never won a ring.
  14. moonslav59
    He's the best we've ever had. I'm not sure how he thinks of himself.
  15. moonslav59
    Losing Eovaldi and Johnson along the way made it worrisome, and hopefully Price only misses 2 starts, but our starting staff was always very good: they were just all having a bad stretch at the same time.
  16. moonslav59
    True, but we were 6-13 vs the same level teams before, so we are getting better.
  17. moonslav59
    I refuse to even look.
  18. moonslav59
    True. Let's hope he turns things around.
  19. moonslav59
    Yes, but to me .650 is sustainable due to his defense. .600 is close. .550 is probably not. Under .500 is benching territory.
  20. moonslav59
    Well said. Maybe someday Devers moves to 1B, but that decision should be put off, at least until JD moves on from the DH slot.
  21. moonslav59
    I'm never going to get past this... lol
  22. moonslav59
    Kinda like kelly without the $25M price tag.
  23. moonslav59
    Depending on Holt's health, I think he has the best chance of returning out of Nunez, Holt, Moreland & Pearce. We may try giving JD a first baseman's mitt for added depth, in case Chavis or Dalbec flame out..
  24. moonslav59
    Agreed, and I didn't mean to imply Dalbec is my first choice at 3B, I was just posing the question to the poster who suggested Devers play 1B and Chavis DH.
  25. moonslav59
    I agree, but I was making my point on the assumption that he remains around .450 into June or July. If it's July, a change will be made....even if just for a few weeks.
