    2.13 ERA in last 4 games (12.2 IP) True, his FIP was 4.81 in those 1.2 IP, but he wasn't our worst picther. .664 OPSA over that time.

    Back up over .500, with TBR and TOR breathing down our necks. 26-12 BAL 26-15 NYY -1.5 20-19 BOS -6.5 (-3.0 from WC with 2 teams between) 20-20 TBR -7.0 18-21 TOR -8.5

    At the end of the time frame in my previous post, we'd be at game 60. (60/162=37%) The game before the first NYY game is game 69. (69/162= just under 43%)

    Using soxprospects.com, method for determining who is a rookie, Crawford, Bello and Wink "graduated" after Duran. Houck and Whitlock in '21

    Criswell with another nice start. It's starting to look like this might not be smoke & mirrors.
  6. moonslav59
    Look at the post he was responding to.
  7. moonslav59
    Other teams scored a lot of runs in one game, too. Most not 17 or more, but take away everyone's top game, and it doesn't change things much.
  8. moonslav59
    Agreed. The series should be spread out vs all teams, if possible.
  9. moonslav59
    After WSH, our schedule is.... TBR 4 @STL 2 @TBR 3 Day Off 3 MIL 3 @ BAL 3 DET (brings us into June) and the 40% mark of the season
  10. moonslav59
    PIT might like cash and a prospect. Would you give Lugo & Hickey?

    Best record teams don't always win. 2022-2023: Best NBA records MIL 58 wins, BOS 57 wins Champ Denver (4th best record) 2021-2022: PHO 64 wins, MEM 56, MIA 53 Champs: GS (T 3rd best record) 2020-2021: UT 52, PHO 51, PHI 49, BRO 48, DEV & LAC 47 Champs: MIL (7th best record) '19-'20 LAL (3rd best record) '18-'19 TOR (2nd best) '17-'18 GS (3rd) Last best record champ in the NBA: 2016-2017 Golden State NHL: '22-'23: Best BOS 135 pts, CAR 113, NJ 112, TOR & Vegas 111 Champ: Vegas '21-'22: COL (2nd) '20-'21: TB (T7th) '19-'20: TB (T3rd) '18-'19: STL (T9th w 3 teams) '17-'18: WSH (T6th) '16-'17: PIT (2nd) '15-16: PIT (3rd) '14-'15: CHI(7th) I'm not sure when the best record NHL team last won the championship.

    e have 2 slots open on the 40. Offer cash. If they say no, offer some cash and some soon-to-be Rule 5 guys we likely won't protect. Binelas Max Ferguson McDonough Maybe Lugo or Hickey.

    I agree with the "historically bad" with RISP, or close to it, in terms of the last 50 years of Red Sox history, but not on overall hitting. We are not doing well, but it's not "historically" low, even if just using the last 50 years.
  14. moonslav59
    Maybe al most "historically bad hitting" in the context of the Red Sox past 5 decade history, but not in terms of MLB, as a whole. Point well-taken, though, especially on the lack of timely hitting. That also seemed to be a curse on many of the good hitting teams pre-Henry, and some under JH, too.
  15. moonslav59
    It looks that way, but their ML talent scouts did wonders with reclamation projects, and they had a unique ability to know just when some of their own players were right at the cusp of decline. Yes, some of that was attributed to dumping stars right before they were about to make more money, but they went beyond that. I think it was a group effort, but yes, Friedman was the man at the top who oversaw their success at winning the most games at the lowest cost possible.

    Let's get back over .500! 1. Duran 2. Abreu 3. O'Neill 4. Devers 5. Grissom 6. Smith 7. McGuire 8. DHam 9. Rafaela Pitcher: Criswell On paper, this team does not look like it can beat more than a handful of others, but this team has shown a lot of resilience. Gotta beat this over .500 team.

    OPS AGainst Last 14 Days: .267 Weissert (Verdu-who?) .350 Bernardino (scrap heap gem) .382 Anderson (just 11 PAS against in last 2 weeks) .464 Uwasawa (really?) .466 Booser (What a story) These top 5 are shockingly ranked, but only have faced 86 batters over the last 2 weeks. That is barely more than Houk's 79. .517 Jansen (turning it around) .523 Houck (still doing very well as we near the quarter mile stretch) .609 Criswell (still surprising us) .622 Crawford (has slipped a bit, but still doing well) .624 Slaten (had a bad game, finally) .679 Wink (hoping he can regain the '23 groove) .692 Martin (improving) .701 Kelly 1.366 Pivetta (one start since rehab) Best K:BB rates 7:0 Weissert (in 15 PAs) 4:0 Martin 5:1 Slaten 9:2 Criswell 4:1 Jansen 18:3 Houck 12:4 Crawford

    OPS Last 14 days: 1.571 Yoshida (7 PAs and on IL) .957 Rafaela .948 Duran .899 Devers .895 Wong .817 Dalbec (13 PAs and in AAA now as Cooper/Smith flounder) .762 DHam .754 O'Neill .729 Ref .715 Abreu .688 McGuire .465 Smith .405 Cooper .333 Grissom
  19. moonslav59
    the next guy is 18 behind and was on the IL! (O'Neill) OPS+ numbers in order of most PAs: 107 Duran (needs some more timely hits) 69 Rafaela (seems to be improving on O) 170 O'Neill (can't buy an rbi other than by homers) 143 Devers (had a slow start) 133 Abreu (impressive start) 25 Valdez (this really hurt: in AAA now) 167 Wong (beats out Abreu as the most surprisingly good start) 137 Casas (sorely missed) IL 107 Yoshida (I'm surprised he is over 100) IL 109 McGuire (the unsung surprise) 28 Reyes (horrible) AAA 8 Dalbec (about as low as possible) AAA 189 Refsnyder (once again, killing lefties) 71 DHam Under 35 PAs 73 Story IL 16 Cooper (actually better than Dalbec!) 31 Smith (Is this the best we can do at 1B?) -7 Grissom (Yes, you can do worse than Dalbec) 21 PAs 89 Romy IL -100 Short (Oh for 7) 57 Heineman (Hardly knew yah)

    Maybe, we should just move him to the pen, now..
  22. moonslav59
    No surgery for Yoshida, but expected to miss several more weeks with the thumb injury. Bello may start Sunday. Whitlock three 3 innings of live batting practice.
  23. moonslav59
    Except for the best pitching staff part.
  24. moonslav59
    Woo lost 12-7. I sure hope Kavadas is not the new Dalbec. (1-2 w HR, BB) Meidroth went 1-4 w 2 rbi POR lost 9-6, as Wikelman went back to struggling, again. Mayer stayed hot: 2-5 w 2B Anthony 0-3 w BB and Teel 1-5 Paulino and Yorke keep trying to raise their stock: both went 3-5. Paulino is over .900 and Yorke is at .770, now. GRE won 1-0 as Rogers looked good in 5 IP, except for 4 BB (0 ER) K Campbell walked twice and scored the only run on a hit by Castro. Salem had a no hitter through 9, and in in the 11th inning, now. Dean 5IP, 0H, 2BB, 5K O'Donnell 4IP, 0H, 2BB, 1K Weins let up a hit in the 10th and Yuten his a 2-run job in the 11th. Lugo dbld in 4 ABs.

    A sad display of what was supposed to be a baseball game.
