Devers is the only one with any semblance of a 3-6 slot hitter make-up. We used to be able to say Betts did too.
-
The question is, is Pedey Pedey?
-
Yes, and our bench gets stronger as well.

We're still making too many dumb mistakes. I don't see us suddenly becoming good at fundamentals. I'm hoping we don't end up losing a series on a bonehead play, but it wouldn't surprise me. Sure, I'd love to have a better offense, but we'd be 10-15 up with just a few less mental blunders and dumb mistakes. I realize every team makes mental mistakes, but we've reached an absurd level. I still really like this team's make-up. To be where we are at without Price, half our pen and an off year from our Cy Young winner shows how much this team can and has overcome. Yeah, the Dodgers, Guardians and Astors look tough on paper as well, but I still like our chances as much as anyone else's.

We added Nunez, Devers and Reed. That's quite a bit. I still like our chances, but nobody ever said it was going to be easy. Many teams have won without a good offense. It's hard for Sox fans to imagine it for us, but it could happen.

It's not going to be easy. We may have to go through CLE, Hou and then LAD. The top 3 odds on faves.

7/4 LAD 21/14 HOU 11/2 CLE 23/4 BOS 15/2 WSH 17/2 Cubs 14/1 NYY 28/1 AZ 33/1 COL

I was beginning to think the Astros were not as much of a contender as Cleveland. Now, it's close.
-
Less balls hit there.
-
,,.and ran into 2 outs
-
Damn it to hell! Too many chances. Too many blunders. Broken record.
-
Mitch!
-
Okay. Time for Betts to take charge!
-
Come on Beni!!!!!
-
Time to put the hurt on these scumbags!
-
Great catch by HRam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Agreed. Lots of cheesy "hits".
-
More stumbling and bumbling.
-
Small sample size warning: Brentz is 2 for his last 20.

The 5 slot has really been our weakness. No matter who we put there, they are doomed. The .671 OPS from the 5 hole is almost as bad as out 9th slot (.661). PAs Player OPS 138 Moreland .739 136 HRam .771 68 JBJ .480 63 Young .540 62 Devers .669 54 Beni .735 34 Bogey .526 (not counting tonight) 13 Travis 1.038 8 Pablo .125 Also, our 4 slot has been our 3rd worst OPS slot at .752. 290 HRam .762 190 Moreland .715 80 Beni .722 18 Young 1.567 13 Betts.538 4 Nunez .000 Having the 4 & 5 slots being 2 of our worst 3 slots has killed many a scoring opportunity.

Returns this year, right?

It's a freaky year. The AL has 3 really good teams and the rest is about as close to "parity" as can be.The NL is haves and have nots ville. -
Once again, we are in 100% agreement. Catcher's have an enormous influence over the success and failure of the pitchers they catch. It cannot be captured by stats or data, but I am convinced it is a vital aspect of a team's success.
