  1. The obvious choice is DH, but we have 13 of those, already.
  2. I read somewhere that he had trouble judging the the hooks on balls hit to COF, but they didn't really give him much time there in AAA. My guess is, they want to first see, if he can play 1B well enough, and our OF overload might be a factor, too. (RHB OF'ers: Rafaela & Jh Garcia are both better defenders.)
  3. They saved about $400K on Phillips and paid B Morgan $350K more, too.
  4. That's about as mute a point as I've ever seen. It's even moot. I agreed with you. I think we get some plus value from the trade. I'm higher on Holobetz than some, but I also like Phillips chances and agree that Eyanson is a consideration- just maybe not 100%. If Eyanson and/or Phillips sucks, my point is not moot, since you tied them together with the money aspect, and this sort of debate is always going on.
  5. 1. LF: he needs to work on the angles, but I'd rather have him in LF than CF. 2. DH 3. 1B
  6. Sox are 0.5 GB the 6th best record in MLB (LAD) -1.5 from 5th best (CHC) -2.5 from 4th (DET) -3.0 from 3rd (TOR) 16 games to go (some have 17-18 to go.)
  7. I've been known to Dobbins is whit, until someone Houcks me in.
  8. How about a big shout out to Romy & Ref? .871 Refsnyder .852 Romy If 70% of all MLB pitchers were lefty, they might be 2025 All Stars. Romy is .704 v R, while Ref is .610: both are better than Duran v L at .564.) 2024-2025 v R: .702 Ref/.630 Romy 2024-2025 v L: .624 Duran/.624 Abreu/.557 Yoshida/.504 DHam
  9. Let's hope the Bello doesn't Tolle too Early for Harrison, tomorrow, or we'll have to Crochet him a blanket.
  10. Maybe they felt he reached his limit for the season. Guerrero, Song and Jack Anderson POR>WOO Dean, Sansone, Kirwin, Riemer & Smith GRE>POR Harrison WOO>BOS tomorrow (Who goes down: Kelly or Murphy?)
  11. I guess they decided to not take him out Early! What a great debut!
  12. So, sign Alonso, G Torres and trade Abreu, Crawford & Clarke for Ryan and then Campbell, Sandlin and Mullins for Keller. 1. Duran LF 2. Anthony RF 3. Story 3B 4. Alonso 1B 5. Casas-Romy DH 6. Torres 2B 7. Mayer 3B 8. Narvaez C 9. Rafaela CF Bench: Wong, Jh Garcia, DHam, Yoshida SP: Crochet, Ryan, Bello, Keller, Sandoval [Tolle, Dobbins, Early, Harrison, Fitts, Criswell. Perales] RP: Chapman, Whitlock, Slaten, Weissert, Bernardino, Moran, Guerrero, Hicks [Murphy, Kelly, Winckowski, Mullins, SP'er]
  13. Remember how we all laughed when they said we'd be a better team, then dood-a-lee-squat at the deadline.
  14. Not me. It's not about me thinking he'll get hit, next inning, but more about not over doing it.
  15. Loving how Early has kept his composure and gets the big Ks! I think I'd pull him, now.
  16. Don't wanna jinx anything but DET just put up 8 on the Yanks in the 7th and lead 10-2. HOU is holding on vs TOR 3-1 in the 7th. CLE beat KCR and TEX is up, early.
  17. I'm not sure Story's arm is strong enough for 3B, but he'd be way better than Devers was. He'd also be Mayer's back-up at SS, so we'd still need a viable 3B back-up option and a 2Bman, not names Campbell, Grissom of DHam. I'm fine keeping DHam as depth, and moving Campbell to LF, which is made easier if we include an OF'er in the trade for Ryan.
  18. 5 years, no. 4 years, maybe, if the AAV is not insane. 3 years is fine.
  19. I'm looking at winning the division and being a top 2 seed for the first round bye. If that goal becomes too remote, I'll start looking at the next wish- home field in the WC series. Hopefully one of these wishes is alive to the end, or we clinch one earlier. If it comes down to making the playoffs or not, I'm not thinking about it. If we ever end up real close, that would suck.
  20. Having every Monday off doesn't mean you are locked into a 6 man rotation, but it seems the way it went.
