  1. Remember on the Swihart vs Leon debate, how some said we should trade or DFA Vaz?
  2. Not by much on offense, except for one year, and not as good on defense, though he got better towards the end, when healthy. If you count all the missed time due to hang nails, I'd call 'em close to even.
  3. I was only talking defense.
  4. I know what you are arguing, but you are wrong. You can't like any Yankees and be a Sox fan. Sorry, it's one OR the other.
  5. It was clear as day. Worst in DRS at -152! (The next guy is at -73. 3rd Worst UZR/150 among any SSs with 7000+ innings at SS. He was THE WORST. (At best, he was 2nd or 3rd worst.)
  6. Jeter was the worst defensive SS in MLB during his career. Why else did they move ARod not Jeter? (Nomar agreed to move.)
  7. No, that's the horse named Pedey.
  8. Jacoby was unreliable- health wise and was very inconsistent offensively as well. If you take away his one great year, he was about the same as JBJ on offense. JBJ: .712 OPS with BOS Ells: .789 OPS with BOS (.760 overall) Jacoby before 2011: .749 OPS Jacoby after 2011 (with BOS only): .747 OPS JBJ since 2015: .754
  9. Yes! He was lights out in the 2018 playoffs, unlike Kimbrel. His career playoff ERA is 0.87. He has 13 appearances this year- all in the 8th or 9th innings. He's had 3 bad games out of 13. Not great but not bad either.
  10. We are now 5 GB first place and 2.5 behind the Guardians. Don't look now, but Vaz has an .857 OPS over the last 4 weeks! Season Splits, so far... vs RHPs 1.155 Chavis 1.050 Betts .893 Moreland .851 Beni .839 Devers .732 Bogey .730 JD .592 Vaz .502 JBJ .414 Nunez .306 Pearce vs LHPs 1.577 JD 1.294 Chavis 1.262 Bogey 1.136 Vaz .767 Beni .694 Devers .528 Moreland .492 Nunez .482 Betts .377 Pearce .273 JBJ
  11. Not if he can't even play.
  12. I doubt there are any takers, and Pedey has no trade rights. If there's a high-priced RP'er out there someone is looking to dump, and Pedey wants to play there, then maybe a 1-1 trade might be slightly possible, but I think he'll have to be DFA'd, if he fails or gets hurt this next call-up, assuming nobody else gets hurt and forces a roster squeeze.
  13. ...a couple years of what? ILs after ILs, uncertainty and another year of keeping someone else off the roster. I say, he gets one more chance, and unless someone else goes to the IL, I'd keep Holt over Pedey, for sure. Pearce and Nunez vs Pedey are close calls.
  14. Jeter was a prima donna who sucked on defense. Judge is good, but he's a Yankee. Re-read my point: Yankees suck!
  15. Chavis is not going down, unless he has a prolonged slump. It will come down to Pedey vs. Nunez vs Holt vs Pearce.
  16. ...unless they're a Yankee.
  17. I see your point, but what purpose does Pedey serve? If Pedey goes, we'd want to keep both Nunez and Holt (and Chavis, of course).
  18. I don't disagree, but I think Pedey gets at least this one last chance. As long as Holt remains unready, Pedey will get another chance. When you think of who has the least chance of helping us going forward, I think Pedey heads the list- ahead of Nunez & Pearce.
  19. I was Wake's biggest fan and as his career neared its end, defender.
  20. TW= Tim Wakefield? lol
  21. The decision won't need to be made until Pedey & Holt are both ready, and nobody else can go on the IL (phantom or otherwise). We should try to delay dumping Pearce, so he has a chance to rebound, but we can't send Chavis down right now, just because he has option..
  22. I'm with you.
  23. I think it depends on where the player is in his career. JBJ is a bad example for my theory, because I thought his early and prolonged struggles brought down his career numbers by more that what he really was. I thought he was more like a .775-.825 hitter, but he has shown he is not.
  24. Weird thing is, Workman's K/BB ratio is his worst at 1.75. (His career K/BB is 2.36.) Workman had two almost identical years before this one: 2017: 3.18 ERA/1.210 WHIP in 39.2 IP 2018: 3.27 ERA/1.210 WHIP in 41.1 IP He's been largely unsung. Maybe this is the year he makes a name for himself.
