  1. We would probably do great in a laid back environment, where nobody even heckles the umps. Maybe COL? LAA might be perfect.
  2. I'm sure some are thinking Durbin is back to being a bum after that one game sample size...LOL!
  3. Mullins is showing why we didn't protect him, and nobody claimed him. We both wondered why they never promoted him to AAA. He's 25 and still in AA, now! I doubt he can even become a decent RP'er Eyanson is a newbie, so I think there is hope he can improve on his walk rate. Maybe he can become the next Early, if he doesn't. K and walk rates are important but not always everything. Here are a couple good K:BB ratios from our top IP farm arms: 63:9 Futrell in 56 IP 64:11 Ziehl in 59 IP
  4. With our infield needs, even if Arias is called up today and is an instant stud, we'd still need a 2Bman. While Romy offers some promise, if he returns, he can be used at DH, too. (We need one of them, too.)
  5. Not so sure on Anthony & Crochet. Romy and Sandoval, maybe. Mayer, Moran and IKF?
  6. The Sox are 5 back of the 41-42 Rangers (-9 run diff) 4 GB HOU (-44) and A's (-51) 3 GB TOR (-32) 2.5 GB BAL (-24) and MIN (-31) CLE is 7 games ahead and at -9 The Sox are +4 in run diff, which is just 1 run from 3rd best (SEA at +5.) We knocked the Yanks from 1st place, so now TBR owe us one. (LOL)
  7. Woo let up 22 hits and walked 5! Romero & Ferguson homered. Eyanson looked good, again. 1 ER in 5.2 (3H, 3BB, 2K) Bleis homered again (3rd in 2 gms) & Arias homered and is back up to .993. Jo Garcia had 2 hits (.877.) GRE lost 11-9 as YRod, Heyman and Anderson homered. Heyman (.857) and Anderson (755) had 3 hits. SAL got a rare win. Foutch pitched no hitter for 3.
  8. Got that right, and 3 in a row makes it 3 times more sweeter.
  9. It's not like Duran was not given a shot at winning the 1 slot. He's played 42 games there. (Only Anthony at 22 is close) .267 Duran (195 PAs) .347 Anthony (101) .250 Gasper (28) .308 Yoshida (13) .545 Waton (11) .400 Rafaela (10)
  10. Pawtucket had these decent numbers: 2.91 Check Rainet (170 IP) 3.09 John Tudor (105) 3.18 Joel Finch (167) 1.60 John LaRose (73 and 15 svs) _______________ .913 Gary Allenson .844 Dave Coleman .782 Garry Hancock .725 Dave Stapleton I'm pretty sure we played our best players and would not have thrust one of these guys into such a key game.
  11. We sucked with Duran leading off. He sucked leading off. He has the worst OBP (.255) on the active roster. (Even Narvaez at .273 is better.) He shouldn't even be batting 5th, anymore. 2026: .267 1st .333 3rd .188 5th .308 6th
  12. Double the stats... HRs & RBI 34 100 Contreras 24 76 Duran 20 76 Abreu 14 70 Rafaela 12 64 Durbin _____________ W-L ERA 18-2 2.95 Gray 14-10 3.59 Early 6-6 Suarez 2.83 8-10 2.78 Tolle
  13. Never thought I'd be looking at the WC standings again this year. As of now, we are... 4.5 GB the Rangers and Athletics- both teams with some serious issues, too. The A's have a -48 run diff, while TEX is at -12. Of coruse, there are also 4 teams between us and them, but look: -46 HOU (+3.5 on BOS) -29 TOR (+3.5 on BOS) -23 BAL (+3) -28 MIN (+3)
  14. RP'ers 2025-2026 ERA: 1.39 Chapman (before today) 1.81 FIP 1.94 J Duran (1.95 FIP) 1.96 Rogers (2.95 FIP) 1.98 Miller (1.57 FIP) Saves 53 Munoz (12 Blown Saves) 52 Duran (6 BS) 47 Chapman (just 3 BS, and only 1 this year) 45 Iglesias (5 BS) 44 R Suarez (6 BS) 43 Bednar (4) & Miller (10 BS, but none in 2026)
  15. Sox Current Rotation ERAs (OPS Against) 2.78 Tolle (.586) 2.83 Suarez (.607) 2.95 Gray (.705) 3.27 Bennett (.629 before today!) 3.59 Early (.726) Kapow!!!
  16. Sox SP'er ERA since.... 3.00 June 12th (3rd) 3.37 April 25th (2nd) 3.77 Season (7th) 3.73 Last 2 seasons (T5th) 8 straight Quality Starts. Not counting today.
  17. Team's OBP leaders (120+ PAs) : .375 Contreras (bats 4th) .337 Abreu (bats 3rd) .331 Rafaela (bats 2nd) .324 Yoshida .305 Gasper .284 Durbin Believe it or not, those two appear to be the best options up first. IKF is at .344 & Anthony at .354, but both are on the IL. Wong is at .362 with 107 PAs, so he could be an option. Other low PA players: .500 Cheng (4 PAs) .429 Eaton (21) .367 Seigler (30) .350 Sogard (41)
  18. I think he has the potential to be a .750 to .775 batter and very good to great defensive 3Bman/2Bman. More likely he'll hit near .700 to .740.
  19. I wasn't calling for Cheng's promotion out of any trust he'd hit over .600, but he was hot and others were not. He's also a plus defender at SS.
  20. Robo calls on every pitch does not slow the game down. In fact, it would speed it up due to no more wasted time on challenges and arguments from players and managers. The home plate ump makes the calls just as he does now, through a signal to his headset, so nobody would even notice,
  21. Today's Line-Up: 1. Yoshida DH at .640 and needs to pick it up! 2. Rafaela CF at a steady .772 3. Abreu RF at .782, which is near but under his .788 career OPS. 4. Contreras 1B at a pretty steady .900 5. Duran LF at .623 and on the decline 6. Durbin 3B at .670 and on the rise 7. Seigler 2B at .796 and fielding very well 8. Narvaez C at .574 which is up 24 points in 2 days. 9. Cheng SS (Highest OPS on the team...LOL)
