    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.
  2. 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.

    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.

    I think we can all agree. He's... Rafael Freakin' Devers!
  5. moonslav59
    Yes, but I'm cutting some slack.
  6. moonslav59
    ...so they are worse vs s***** teams...
  7. moonslav59
    ...kinda what Chavis looked like, right?

    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)

    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.

    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.
  11. moonslav59
    I hate to be negative after a win, but I think Walden is toast.
  12. moonslav59
    Devers is giving him a strong challenge for team MVP.
  13. moonslav59
    Just 2 down from the WC and 2.5 behind TB for the #1 WC slot. It's been a roller coaster season.
  14. moonslav59
    Walden's magic has run its course.
  15. 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.

    Talk about finding new ways to lose.
  17. moonslav59
    The Sox have certainly not played like champions this year, so I can understand not thinking this is going to end well, but we have a strong team on paper and a lot of games left to find a groove and ride it to back-to-back paradise.
  18. moonslav59
    I was just jivin' ya. I understood what you meant.
  19. moonslav59
    Harco Mernandez?
  20. moonslav59
    He does hit lefties about the same as righties in his small ML sample sizes.
  21. moonslav59
    Why not address the fact that we need pitching, especially since we have a top 5 offense?
  22. moonslav59
    Cora certainly has a thing with Nunez. Holt or Hernandez can be hot as hell, but Nunez will start the next game. 2019 Innings at 2B 256 Chavis 186 Nunez 184 Holt 84 Marco 79 Others GS'd at 2B: 29 Chavis 22 Holt 19 Nunez 8 Marco 4 Lin 4 Pedey 1 Vaz 2018 Inning 627 Nunez 445 Holt 298 Kinsler 30 Phillps, 27 Pedey 23 Lin, 8 Others GS'd 70 Nunez 44 Holt 31Kinsler 8 Others 2018-2019 OPS .894 Hernandez (42 PAs) .769 B Holt (478) .649 Nunez (665) .604 Kinsler (143) UZR/150 5.6 Marco (-1 DRS) 5.5 Holt (-1 DRS) 3.8 Lin (-1 DRS) 2.0 Chavis (0 DRS) -3.7 Nunez (-17 DRS) The numbers DO NOT support playing Nunez more than Holt. The sample size is too small on Marco, but I'd play him more to see if he is for real. It's not like Nunez has done anything to justify playing more.

    Last 11 games: SP'ers: 6.33 ERA (132 ERA-) 54 IP (4.9 IP/gm) 1.63 WHIP RP'ers: 8.20 ERA 45 IP (4.1 IP/gm) 1.93 WHIP Team: 7.18 ERA 1.77 WHIP

    lol!
  25. moonslav59
    The optimist would look at how horribly we've played and the fact that we are still right in the thick of the WC race as a good thing by assuming we cannot keep finding ways to lose forever. We've gotten the worst out of our system- blue skies ahead!
