    Agreed. We can give Beni, Devers and Moreland some rest vs LHPs and HRam, Betts and Pedey vs RHPs to the point where Nunez plays just about FT.,

    For the Sox, it's not just about blowing past the luxury limit, it's about massive taxes over the next 2-3 years. Verlander is likely to decline further.

    We did have a lot of days off earlier in the month. You're right though, some of our players look tired- some banged up.
  4. moonslav59
    Now might not be the time to give vaz some work with Sale,, but it's not like Sale has done all that great with Leon recently. I agree, though. Leon should start. Maybe Vaz could DH.
  5. moonslav59
    I'm hoping Pedey can play plus D and continue hitting in the high .700's. I think JBJ will be fine. These two returning solves our bench issues instantly.

    vs the lefty, I'd go.... 1. Nunez 2B 2. Bogey SS 3. Young DH 4. Betts RF 5. Vaz C 6. Beni CF 7. HRam 1B 8. Devers 3B 9. Davis LF

    Thanks. The water has fallen another inch or two since this morning. The end is in sight. We still have about 3-4 feet of water on our street and 1-2 feet on our front lawn.

    Thanks, 700. I think my wife has had that same mental vision in her dreams (nightmares)!

    Thanks. We have two rescued dogs as well. One is a yellow lab that just turned 17! He was skin & bones and at death's door when I found him as a one-year old puppy. The other is a 6 month old puppy.

    They heard everyone here screaming about "black holes", so Betts and the people at the top gave some of their hits to Vaz and the other expected bottom feeders.

    I used to keep score of every game in the early and mid 70's by radio. OPS is not a perfect stat, and you mentioned who is hot and who is cold... Last 28 days... .994 Vaz .967 Moreland .960 Beni .824 Young .812 JBJ .789 Devers .763 Nunez .741 Bogey .725 HRam .642 Betts .620 Leon .371 Holt (Has more PAs than Vaz and Young!) Last 14 Days... 1.395 Vaz 1.188 JBJ 1.147 Moreland .847 Bogey .690 Betts .670 Nunez .669 Leon .639 Young .636 Beni & Devers .610 HRam .405 Holt Last 7 days... 1.255 Vaz 1.244 Moreland .842 Nunez .820 Bogey .718 Betts .633 Young .583 Davis .546 Beni .469 Devers .458 Leon .449 HRam .404 Holt

    The water has gone down a few inches overnight. It stopped raining. The forecast calls for some sun by Wed or Thur. I'm very thankful we came through this without any damage. Our cat came back this morning after two days out in the flood. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts, prayers and well-wishes. You will not be forgotten.
  13. moonslav59
    Water has leveled out here. We're hoping for the best. It could be days for the water to recede, even if the rain stops completely. Our cat has been missing for almost 48 hours.

    Max, just so you know, I may come off as someone who acts like a know-it-all, but I'm not. I love the Sox as much as you do and have strong opinions like you. I'm critical of JF and have my own philosophy. I'm glad Devers is up. I'd like to see him or someone other than HRam batting 4th or 5th, but as long as we keep winning, I'm happy. Something happened tonight that nobody expected to happen: Vaz just passed Bogey in OPS and Moreland tied Betts.... Updated .898 Devers .794 Nunez .791 Beni .784 Pedey .780 Betts & Moreland .775 JBJ .763 HRam .751 Vaz (next stop: HRam) .744 Bogey .482 Holt Also of note, all our top 8 hitters by PAs with the Sox are between .744 and .791.
  15. moonslav59
    I was joking. Note: had they batted Devers 4th today, he'd have gone 4-4.
  16. moonslav59
    Finally---a win!
  17. moonslav59
    wtf ck!
  18. moonslav59
    Big mistake calling Devers up before he was ready... err... I mean, why did JF bat Devers 6th, when we all know he's 5 for 9 batting 7th! ...err, I mean... never mind.
  19. moonslav59
    Move Vaz to clean-up! Just joking
  20. moonslav59
    Even wrong calls sometimes work just as a broken clock tells the right time twice a day. I had no issues with both calls you brought up. Even if they did not work, they were not "blunders", at least the way I have been using the term..
  21. moonslav59
    My words were "blunders", "mental mistakes" and "bumbling", not "bone headness".
  22. moonslav59
    He must have just started then! LOL
  23. moonslav59
    It's not ideal, but it's also not a 10 year deal with a FA that brings him to age 38-41. Betts will just be 34. We probably can't keep him unless we go 10 years.
  24. moonslav59
    Thanks, Kimmi. We're hoping for the best and will be fine.
  25. moonslav59
    I just don't see replacing our 4th OF'e who has been hitting better than over half the team as a worthwhile endeavor. I'd like to see Brentz called up in September, but I do not think it is wise to DFA Young just to give Brentz and extra week. I doubt he even plays much when called up, unless he produces quickly and emphatically in his few chances.
