  1. Kinda-sorta. That team had a nice pen: Papelbon 31 saves 2.94 ERA/0.93 WHIP D Bard 3.33/0.96 Aceves 2.61/1.11 The rotation looked to be very good, but 3 guys flopped: 6.41 Lackey (injured) 5.12 Wake 5.54 A Miller (12 GS'd) Beckett (2.89), Buch (3.48) and Lester (3.47) did well. Top OPS: .957 AGon .953 Papi .928 Ells .861 Pedey .833 Youk
  2. The Good .731 to .939 Devers .883 to .959 Bogaerts .540 to .809 Vazquez n/a to .862 Hernandez n/a to .773 Chavis .774 to .782 Holt 3.27 to 2.08 Workman 3.82 to 4.19 ERod n/a to 3.62 Walden The Bad 1.031 to 913 JD 1.078 to .885 Betts .830 to 826 Beni .758 to .812 Moreland (IL too much) .717 to 720 JBJ .511 to .559 Leon 3.58 to 3.86 Price The Ugly 2.11 to 4.48 Sale 4.28 to 5.74 Porcello 3.65 to 4.01 Barnes 1.60 to 4.46 Brasier 3.33 to 6.66 Eovaldi 3.18 to 5.67 Velazquez
  3. Should I start the "A Realistic View at 2020: Part I," now?
  4. Wait till 2021. We should blow it up and shoot for 2021.
  5. There's enough time to work on trading JBJ. I doubt we trade Betts.
  6. Some more comps to 2018. 2019: 10-15 when scoring 4-5 runs 2018: 33-9 when scoring 4-5 runs 2019/2018: 14-2 when allowing 1-2 runs/ 38-4 in 2018 10-2 when allowing 3 runs/ 22-4 in 2018 20-15 when allowing 4-5 runs/ 22-14 in 2018 10-18 when allowing 6-8 runs/10-21 in 2018
  7. No, I don't, but this is an opinion site.
  8. I think GMs will want him at $10M, and we won't have to pay a cent. I could be wrong, but I think many GMs have wanted JBJ for years. A one year $10M commitment is desirable. I think it is worth the risk. (I see the advantage of non tendering, but if we are looking to do that, we might as well DFA him now.
  9. Nobody else is even close to having 4 guys over .880. We have 4 in the top 25. The Astros have 2. The Twins, Mets & Yanks have 2.
  10. Yes, and he's hitting about the same as 2018. I guess if GMs think his defense has slipped, they may not call this winter, but it seems like every winter GMs ask about him.
  11. The sad part about this season is that Devers and Bogey really came into their own to no avail. We may end up with 4 guys over .900. Devers Bogey JD Betts Vaz and Beni over .800. Sad.
  12. We can trade him and sign an all glove CF'er for cheaper.
  13. It's over. Time to think about 2020.
  14. He did have a .371 OBP with Portland, this year, so the .234 BA is tolerable. The guy has 52 HRs in his last 814 ABs, including 26 HRs in 470 PAs in AA. 107 XBHs in those 814 ABs.
  15. The July-August collapse.
  16. Yes, but it won't be much per year. I'm still confident the contract will be a winner for both sides.
  17. Any return is better than non tendering him.
  18. They are toast. Burnt.
  19. I think we pay his arb cost and trade him.
  20. I stand by my position. We'll need to be bad to get good again. It's nearly impossible to keep spending to fill all holes. We need some cheap youth, and the system makes it VERY hard to rebuild the farm while winning and spending to the penalty phases every year.
  21. Ok. The offense has done absolutely nothing wrong all year. It's 100% on the staff.
  22. Of course the pitching is the reason we are where we are, but it seems like our offense has done very well when needed the least and not too well when needed most. Again, this is not meant to lessen the blame on the staff. Our pitching sucks.
  23. The cliff came early, and even outspending everyone by tens of millions when including taxes & Castillo couldn't keep the nice run we had going. Trying to play it half way will only prolong the recovery. We will need to be bold this winter. Reset the tax sooner not later. Keep the young core and blow up the rest.
