    Fantasy or Horror Story?
  2. moonslav59
    Thriller or Dystopian Melodrama?
  3. moonslav59
    True Story or Fiction?

    He walked, alright!

    Let's see how "clutch" Duran can be.
  6. moonslav59
    Lowe has not yet learned the Sox ways.
  7. moonslav59
    Maybe Yoshida can shut me the eff up.
  8. moonslav59
    Players can get clutch hits: it's just not a repeatable skill. Clutch exists. It's just not Duran. (LOL)
  9. moonslav59
    Please, don't leave it up to Yoshida.
  10. moonslav59
    Of course, we'd keep hicks and trade Slaten for him.
  11. moonslav59
    Maybe Duran can be Hungry Like a Wolf!
  12. moonslav59
    Maybe we could trade for Strowd, this winter.
  13. moonslav59
    Bregman has some loud outs: how about a quiet hit?
  14. moonslav59
    Anthony is not only really good, he seems to rise the occasion, often... so far.
  15. moonslav59
    It's this inning, or I fear a big L comes down on us.
  16. moonslav59
    Slaten pitched for Woo: 1 IP 0 H 0 BB 3 Ks!
  17. moonslav59
    Actually 5, if you count our current 2Bman, Rafaela.

    A good friend of mine used to say a pitcher is only as good as his last game. Well, how about last 2? ERA/FIP 1.50/2.78 D May 3.00/5.87 Buehler 4.09/5.12 Giolito 4.91/3.94 Crochet 5.25/5.03 Bello Last 3: 2.87/2.93 D May 2.84/4.70 Giolito 3.50/4.01 Bello 3.86/6.49 Buehler 4.00/2.90 Crochet Looks almost upside-down!

    Betts career by position: .890 in the OF in 5426 PAs. (11th best) .780 at SS in 837 PAs (18th best) .956 at 2B (best in MLB by position) 446 PAs It's obvious the Sox destroyed Betts by moving him off 2B. Just totally destroyed his career! LOL!

    Either he or ICampbell makes sense. Moran could turn out to be a keeper, in the long run, but then again, I felt teh same when we traded for I Campbell.
  21. moonslav59
    It's kind of a perfect set up for the team and something the union should work to eliminate. The timing of free agency means so much to a good player's earning potential.

    Our Sp'ers have been doing worse than before, as well, except Buehler, who has consistently sucked. BTW, Whitlock has not allowed an inherited runner to score since June 8th, and just 2 out of 12, all year. He allowed a run, his last time pitching, after going 16 scoreless games of 13.2 IP, just 9 hits, 2BB and 17 Ks. You know who pitches like this? Chapman. I guess a pitcher is only as good as his last game. Crochet has a 4.91 ERA in his last 2 starts. Gio is at 4.09 in his last 2 (5.12 FIP.) Bello: 5.25 in last 2. It's not just the pen, Max. We've lost 6 of the last 9, but have gone 13-9 in the last 22 and 25-14 in the last 39, which is nearly a quarter season!
  23. moonslav59
    Finally! I hope he can pitch like he has for long stretches with us. We need a guy like that. Who goes down?

    Being "human nature" hardly makes more criticism "fair," but yes, that is subjective. I get the heat of the moment outbursts that are hyperbolic or based on emotions more than logic or true beliefs, but to me, it often gets overwhelmingly critical and negative. At times abusive and absurd. It's just not for me, or I can only take it in small doses. I've seen enough negativity for the decades of futility from the early 70's to 2003. I was probably as negative and pessimistic as anyone and everyone else, so I guess I should be more understanding and accepting. It's nothing personal, I just see enough crap going on in the world, right now, that I kinda want the Sox to be a beacon of hope in my life. I like this team. I think they are fun to watch- flaws and all. I also see the AL as not having any great team, so I'm optimistic that maybe we don't need to be as good as one usually thinks a team needs to be to go to the big dance. This could be the year. The 2013 team was not nearly as good as the 2018, but some crazy sh** can happen. BOSTON STRONG!

    I'm hoping he has a super two months.
