    Nunez is a better OF choice than Holt or Lin, and we also have JMart, Swihart and Moreland who can play LF, so Holt's ability to play the OF is not a big factor.
  2. moonslav59
    No, but I doubt anyone was offering Moreland anything close to what the Sox offered. The JMart situation is a little more murky. I doubt anyone came near the HRam and Pablo offers. The Price signing may have had competition.

    This place cracks me up!
  4. moonslav59
    I would, too, but I'm not sure how much a month (or even longer) long hot or cold streak really affects a player's value.

    Sox OPS leaders 1.238 Lin (14 PAs) 1.111 XB 1.059 Betts .955 HRam .844 Swihart (10 PAs) .829 Beni .824 JMart .814 Nunez .811 Moreland (30 PAs) .721 Devers .552 JBJ .510 Holt (29 PAs) .512 Vaz .333 Leon (18 PAs) We have 7 guys with 9 or more rbi: 15 HRam 13 JMart 10 Betts & Devers 9 XB & Beni (61 MLB players have 9 or more rbis- we have 7 of them! BTW, AGon has 9 rbi.) 14 by all the rest combined (Nunez with 6) WHIP 0.76 Porcello 0.86 Kimbrel 0.95 Sale 1.00 Price & Hembree 1.20 Kelly 1.24 Velazquez 1.29 Poyner 1.30 Johnson 1.33 Walden 1.35 Barnes 1.49 ERod 2.14 Smith ERA- 0 Kimbrel 29 Sale 44 Porcello 57 Price 61 Poyner 65 Johnson 79 Velazquez 89 ERod 97 Barnes 108 Hembree 119 Walden 129 Kelly 184 Smith Team Leaders in ERA- 70 BOS & HOU 71 NYM 76 CLE 77 MN 81 AZ ...24th NYY at 117 Runs scored 103 LAA 89 BOS 87 Pitt ...7th NYY at 77 Sox are 3rd in team OPS at .795, while NYY are 7th at .755. We're 23rd in HRs, but nobody seems to care about that anymore.

    True, especially with the Sox continually bidding only against itself.
  7. moonslav59
    I lived in Milwaukee during the Lombardi era. The Packers won 5 championships in 7 years (5 before the Super Bowl).
  8. moonslav59
    Betts, too, especially in the spacious RF of Fenway.
  9. moonslav59
    I know! 13-2 and Pom, Pedey, Bogey, Wright, Poyner, Thornburg and others joining the 25 man roster soon or at some point.
  10. moonslav59
    True, but sometimes surgery actually makes you better than you were before the surgery.
  11. moonslav59
    They will make a difference over the next 147 games. We are bound to hit a rough patch or two before the season is over. Hopefully, the infusion of these players coming off the DL will help minimize our future losses.
  12. moonslav59
    If you had to choose, who would you rather have? LoMo $6.5M x 1 Moreland $6.5M x 2 Aparrently a 1 year wonder (maybe) is worth about the same as a long and steady mediocre 1Bman.
  13. moonslav59
    Is there really even .001% of a chance his foot veered off the base by almost 2 feet by accident? He was trying to break up the DP. Yes, I guess it's just an opinion, but to me, it looks like 100% fact. Was he intending to injure Holt? That, I'm not sure, but he was trying to bvreak up the DP by having his foot hit Holt or cause him to not turn the play. To me, he intentionally aimed his foot at Holt's legas that was his only way to break up the DP..
  14. moonslav59
    Impressive. IP/ ER Sale 6.0/0 5.0/1 6.0/1 5.0/1 Price 7.0/0 7.0/0 1.0/4 Porcello 5.1/1 7.1/3 7.0/0 ERod 3.2/3 6.0/1 Velazquez 5.2/1 5.0/2 Johnson 6.0/1 WOW!
  15. moonslav59
    I lived in Milwaukee during my formative years. I'm still a Packer and Bucks fan, but I switched to the Red Sox when I moved to maine at the same time the Brewers traded my favorite player, Tommy Harper, to the Sox.
  16. moonslav59
    No Bogey, no XB, no Pedey, yet we still keep winning. (Also, no Pom, Wright and others, as well.)
  17. moonslav59
    Sox prospects had him ranked 13th.
  18. moonslav59
    Look what JBJ went through after hitting .726 last year. I can only imagine what Lin (or Holt) would go through had he played FT this year. Also, Nunez is our best 4th OF'er, and it's not even close.
  19. moonslav59
    Cause he got fat, maybe?
  20. moonslav59
    Yeah, I saw that! Weird play!
  21. moonslav59
    Well said, Max. JBJ with a big SB. Lin come trhough with a nice hit. Pitching, pitching, pitching! Keep it rollin' !
  22. moonslav59
    Better than Holt and probably Lin.
  23. moonslav59
    I think, these days, prime is more like 26-30. JBJ is not fast, so I can't see how "speed" is his "primary strength". To me his strengths are... 1) Defensive instincts (quick starts, correct routes to balls and positioning) 2) Power 3) Good base running skills 4) Decent on base skills
  24. moonslav59
    Beeks has struck out 16 in 8 IP in 2 starts so far.
