    Give up. It's no use.

    I think I read somewhere that SFG did not demand we take Hicks, but maybe that also meant we wouldn't get Harrisson or Tibbs, either.

    No Tolle highway.

    The Sox have the best record in the AL since June 7th. That's nearly 3 months. Here are some numbers: 9-1 Giolito 2.26 9-5 Bello 2.68 9-1 Crochet 3.27 Chapman 0.31 ERA & Whitlock 1.67 ERA OPS Leaders 99+ PAs .867 Story .860 Romy .859 Anthony (IL) .822 Abreu (IL) .815 Duran .808 Refsnyder .740 Bregman .731 Rafaela .676 Narvaez .654 Yoshida .567 Wong (DHam .613 in 84 PAs)

    I think, if they felt he was ML ready and the clear best choice, he'd add him to the 40 and call him up.

    Very strange gameplan. The announcer wondered if Love was hurt, but he didn't look it, later in the game. ND is ranked 9th, right behind 2 other 0-1 teams (Texas and Clemson.) Remaining schedule: 19 Texas A&M 9/13 Purdue 9/20 at Arkansas 9/27 Boise St 10/4 NC State 10/11 USC 10/18 at Boston College 11/1 Navy 11/8 at Pittsburgh 11/15 Syracuse 11/22 at Stanford 11/29 (No more currently top ranked teams after A&M.)

    Is this the first time this year you did not project a loss? 🫢
  8. moonslav59
    He's not Rule 5, yet.
  9. moonslav59
    Arias hit a 3 run blast. Through 5 IP, Mullins is at it, again: 4H, 1ER, 2BB, 6K. Romero homered for Woo. He's not talked about all that much, but maybe he should be.

    American League Only.... The Sox have 3 of the top 10 SP'ers (120+ IP) in ERA-. We also have 2 of the top 10 RP'ers (50+IP) in ERA-. 23 Chapman (nearly half the next guy!) 2.3 fWAR 1st 42 Cleavinger 44 Munoz 49 Vasil 50 Hader (IL) 55 Newcomb (remember him?) 56 Abreu 58 Armstrong 59 Whitlock (#9) He's 5th in IP by RP'ers (1.7 fWAR is 4th) Does any other team have a better 1-2-3 SP and 1-2 RP quintet?

    Bring up PASSWORD to PH for Wong.
  12. moonslav59
    Undefeated!
  13. moonslav59
    I think versatility is not as valuable when you have a 28 man roster, but with 3 catchers, maybe it all evens out. I kinda felt out team needs offense, and KC or Garcia probably offer the best shot at an O booster shot.
  14. moonslav59
    And, they got a guy to run the show from TBR- kinda like we did. (He got his job with TB as a result of a Bloom recommendation.)
  15. moonslav59
    I thought the conversation was about the 2021 trade deadline deals.
  16. moonslav59
    So, a team's record vs the Angels is the best way to determine who is better? I see a clear divide between PHI & LAD and the top AL teams all bunched together: A MIL B LAD & PHI B- TOR, DET, NYY, BOS, SEA, HOU,plus 3 NL teams CHC, SDP, NYM
  17. moonslav59
    I don't know about others, but Hick makes me sick!
  18. moonslav59
    Is it fair to say fWAR values or overvalues FIP or xFIP, where as bWAR does not?
  19. moonslav59
    I don't see a major roster crunch, this winter, despite all the 60 Day IL players being added back, and a couple or three Rule 5's. but Hicks seems to be a hopeless case. We already have some players that most of us wish or are close to wishing were not on the 40. Hicks and Yoshida are hard to unload due to salary. Lowe might get $10M via arb, so who knows? I Campbell & Grissom may be nontendered or DFA'd/traded. Sogard, Eaton & Ali Sanchez could easily be gone. Houck will need to be on the 40, until opening day, when we can place him on the 60 Day until 2027. (Someone suggested we nontender him, but that is extreme, to me.) Winckowski should stay, IMO. He was pretty good a couple years ago. Casas should stay. It seems obvious to me. He has a career .800 OPS. Criswell, Murphy, Kelly, Guerrero will stay, IMO. DHam will stay, IMO.
  20. moonslav59
    Yes, I understand that, and I've always felt fWAR was better, but lately I'm beginning to wonder.
  21. moonslav59
    Isn't the argument that WAR "looks at the whole picture?"
  22. moonslav59
    A month last, but I'll take it.
  23. moonslav59
    Living near Houston, The Astros are the poster child for a winning team despite major injury issues, every season, particularly SP'ers. (They have also let many big stars walk but keep winning.)
  24. moonslav59
    Yes. I did not expect them to drop so much, this year.
  25. moonslav59
