    Yes! Can HRam just hit a deep fly ball?
  2. moonslav59
    Beni Freakin' Tendi!
  3. moonslav59
    Too funny!
  4. moonslav59
    You mean the guy who hasn't been over .735 for 5 years before this year's outlier season? No thanks.
  5. moonslav59
    Maybe it's dementia. It's time for JF to be shown the door (to the loonie farm.)
  6. moonslav59
    He signaled to bring in Kimbrel- not knowing he couldn't. This guy gives clowns a bad name.
  7. moonslav59
    Does he even know the rules?
  8. moonslav59
    Is JF the biggest idiot in the world?
  9. moonslav59
    Pablo HRs for SFG On the farm... Jalen Beeks 6 IP 2 H 1 ER 2 BB 6 K Brentz 1 for 4 Chavis 0 for 5
  10. moonslav59
    How about Stanton with 21 HRs in his last 33 games? Let's just trade for him! (LOL)
  11. moonslav59
    We signed an all glove 1Bman this last winter. If Pedey wasn't on the DL, Moreland would be benched right now.
  12. moonslav59
    Yes, Hosmer has won something like 3 GGs. We need a big bat, and signing Hosmer to play the position known for power and offense for 4+ years is not what we need in many ways.
  13. moonslav59
    I thought we should have traded Holt after his all star year. Starting Holt is just another reason to fire JF.
  14. moonslav59
    DD may not think we need a big bat, but if he does, 1B/DH seems like the logical place to acquires someone that fits the need. The choices are limited in the FA market. I'm not a hug fan of Duda, but I don't want to sign Hosmer long term, so Duda looks like the best of there rest for a possible one or two year contract.
  15. moonslav59
    I mentioned Hosmer is a way better fielder. I love D more than O at almost every position. 1B is not one of them, but it still matters. I'm worried more about our budget issues in 2-3 years. That's why I'm looking at who might be the best short-term option out there for 1B. There's no assurance recent prior production will repeat itself, but Duda has better prior 2-4 year numbers than just about any other FA 1Bman on this winter's market, and he might take a 1-2 year deal..
  16. moonslav59
    Compared to Duda, Hosmer is a yo-yo... .799 .663 -133 .801 +138 .716 -95 .822 +106 .761 -61 .864 +103 He's up and down by about 100 points every year. Yes, he's a better fielder by far, and he's just started prime, but I would not chose this guy to me my 4-5 or 6 year 1Bman. We need to avoid a long term deal at 1B this winter. Nobody is out there that is worth it. We may end up trading for one.

    Where is the two consecutive "down years?" .718 2011 .767 2012 .830 2014 .838 2015 .714 2016 (Injured-172 PAs) .878 2017 I see a steady increase interrupted by one season of injury. He'll get more than $10M/1 but maybe less than the $40/3 I suggested.
  19. moonslav59
    Maybe to ask. Maybe he'll get close to that, but I'd prefer to get Duda for $40-45M/3...maybe $50M.
  20. moonslav59
    What will be all the Sox numbers going to be over the last 6 weeks of the season? Turn on that old rusty WAPM machine of yours!
  21. moonslav59
    Yes, chopping off the right nut moves the draft pick down 10 slots! The left one is just a monetary penalty.
  22. moonslav59
    Travis has only played in 311 minor league games. If you divide his numbers in half, his season totals would be close to... 156 Games 657 PAs .296 13 86 38 2B+3B .360 OBP .435 SLG (low for 1B) .795 OPS
  23. moonslav59
    A .734 OPS at AAA is not very encouraging, but he's still go time to grow.
  24. moonslav59
    My point was, 2013 was not "outstanding". The guy had 2 good to great years in the 6 years from 2008 to 2013. Couple that with injury concerns and the history of aging players who rely on speed for a large part of their production and to me, warning signs were everywhere. We had just seen what happened to CC. It seemed obvious to me anyway/
  25. moonslav59
    I agree on long term. I disagree on the money. I think I overestimated the cost of signing Duda & Hosmer earlier. I'm hoping one might bite at more money but less years. I'd like to keep the door open for Chavis (Travis/Ockimey/Dalbec) at 1B in 2019 or 2020.
