    Too bad the no DH rule kept ERod from going the rare 7 or 8 IP.
  2. moonslav59
    Just checked in. Wow, only 84 pitches for ERod after 6 innings? Is that a typo in the box score?
  3. moonslav59
    I meant last winter, while good, cheap free agents were signing left and right.
  4. moonslav59
    I totally agree. He's the type of player I want, and I think he will age well. Having the ability to DH could really extend his career. He has to know that.

    Friendship and loyalty to your countrymen perhaps trumps team loyalty.

    I never said DD would not go over the max line. I actually said, if he is going to do so, why hasn't he already, and why not go way over, then?

    I'll say We'll have a heck of a PH'er brigade Today.

    EE 5 out of hos previous 6 seasons over .900 and all 6 over .886 with TOR After signing: .881 .776 He's already showing signs of decline, and Moreland is out performing him. .929>.886>.881>.776 He's owed almost $22M next year with a $5M buyout on $20M for 2020. Puig .772 this year is much better than JBJ, but one has to worry about his volatility. (He's a career .827 OPS guy.)
  9. moonslav59
    Let's hope his luck changes.
  10. moonslav59
    I'd take Stanton at $22M x 10 in a heart beat. That's like paying him $30M x 7 up to age 35 with 3 free years afterwards.
  11. moonslav59
    If JD reaches 650+ PAs, leads the league in HRs and RBIs, maybe he'll realize playing some DH helped keep him healthy and fresh and strong. It's hard to figure out what the market will be like when his opt out comes up, but he will be a couple years older. That fact may cut into some of the financial gains he could expect to get by being a FA again.

    Papi's numbers: .941 Carrer OPS Regular Season .870 Late & Close .943 High Leverage .947 Post Season If clutch is rising to the occasion, or dong better than you usually do, when it counts, the numbers show Papi did about as well as he normally did- clutch or no clutch. .870-.947 is damn good and better than most other players, but that was who Papi was- all the time. Now, walk off dramatic HRs, game tying and go ahead HRs and hits near the ends of important games, especially elimination games or clinching games seems to be where Papi did better than his career norm, but those stats are hard to gather and compare to other greats. BTW, Mr. October's numbers... .846 career OPS .855 High Leverage .804 Late & Close .885 Post Season (BA & OBP are lower in Late & Close situations, so it's not about being walked when it counts.)

    Might not see me here as much. We just started a road trip towards Maine and Canada. Drove 14 hours from Sugar Land, TX to Cave City, KY. Will spend time in NC, Philly, Sebago Lake, Q City, Montreal, back to the lake, NYC, Smokey Mtns, Destin, FL, New Orleans and back home. 5 weeks. Saving the games on DVR. Nice box score tonight.

    That's about as shallow as I've ever seen a LF'er play.
  15. moonslav59
    $5.3M/1 yr. The fix is in.

    The Yankees lose! Thaaahhhhhhhhhhhh Yankeeeeeeeeeees Looooooooooozzzzzzzzzzzzz!

    Maybe the off season work out regime by Holt worked. Maybe he won't fall off a cliff this summer/fall. Maybe, maybe...

    Ronald Acuna with a two-run job in the top of the 11th vs the Yanks!

    Does your pool $ number reflect the trade with the Reds for pool bonus money?
  22. moonslav59
    Some Sox news: 1) Smith moved to 60 day DL. 2) William Cuevas added to the roster and promoted to Boston. 3) Haley sent back to AAA. 4) Sox trade Lorenzo Cedrola to the Reds for international bonus pool space. 5) Sox sign Eduardo Lopez OF at $1.15M (International FA signing) #23 ranked Int'l prospect
  23. moonslav59
    Yes, the numbers back up the point made. If you take away just the last start from everyone but Sale, these numbers would look radically different.
  24. moonslav59
    I mentioned him in an earlier post. He looks great this year, but this worries me: WHIP 1.233 2015 1.225 2016 1.379 2017 0.743 2018 Outlier? Fluke? Real deal? Are we just guessing? What's equally weird is that his K/9 was always over 10.4, and now, during his best season, it's down to 9.7. I'm not sure we can afford to trade for an established & consistent RP'ers, so someone like Kyle B might be all we can get. We just will have to hope he stays good all year and doesn't revert to 2017 or earlier numbers.
