    Certainly possible. Noah Syndergaard is rehabbing soon. He’s better than ERod at pitching and at getting injured..

    Only due to the lack of snow in Florida…

    Agreed. I would think the ability to handle higher pressure situations is one of the requirements for actually making MLB. There are plenty of players out there with sufficient baseball skills who, in the face of pressure, go to pieces faster than fine crystal in the hands of a UPS driver. And we have a name for these players - career minor leaguers…

    … unless he’s drinking..

    But can ERod be adequately replaced for the cost of the QO?

    “Preeminent proponent of the preposterous pressuring people” is something I cannot say 10 times fast..

    Yeah we got that part. And they were 29 years apart. If the point was the same results occurred after another 29 years, fine, but it also ignored that similar stretches (like 1986-1989) occurred in between…

    I clearly didn’t. I thought it was a simple math problem with a minus sign in it. And I wasn’t the only one…
  9. notin
    No. Was he saying 1946+1947+1948+1949 + 29 = 1975 + 1976 + 1977 +1978? Because that’s also not true.
  10. notin
    So you’re saying if two years are 29 years apart, the years following each one are also 29 years apart? Call Ripley!!

    Using symbols that create ambiguous or easily misinterpreted situations is not on the audience. For more on the subject : https://www.penguin.com/static/pdf/teachersguides/eatsshootsleaves.pdf

    Exactly. It’s not as if math doesn’t have symbols for series summations….
  13. notin
    Yeah what kind of moron thinks they should subtract when they see a minus sign…
  14. notin
    Or, simply write out the equation for the years involved, like 1946+1947+…

    That shouldn’t be a factor. A team shouldn’t build their major league roster around their minor prospects. If Devers’ is viewed as a good first baseman but an insufficient third baseman and his future is better at 1st, then the Sox will have to find a way to deal with the depth problem. I doubt Devers is moved to first, and I doubt Casas has anything to do with that decision…

    Moving to a new team after 2022 is currently just an option Bogaerts has. Moving him to a new position for 2022 probably seals that decision for him…
  17. notin
    All of it. There is a repeated theme that (-3) = 26. I think you’re using the wrong symbols because it looks like you’re trying to say: 1946 minus 1949 plus 29 is equal to 1975 minus 1978…

    Duran may come around with the bat and the glove, but right now he’s a Work In Progress on both fronts, and really, not needed on this sinking ship. Now I’ve never been all that wild about him as a prospect, but that’s not the issue anyway. With Schwarber on board, and with Arroyo returning soon, Duran’s playing time could easily be severely impacted anyway. He might go back to Worcester when Arroyo gets activated, which might e this week. This is not so bad because for this year, the AAA season runs through September, so he will get on the field a lot more and can work out his issues there…

    He’s what Newton called “an immovable object”…
  20. notin
    I think they’ll move Bogaerts for something (hopefully) decent, be it pitcher or 1b( or 3b?) Bring in a better glove at SS. And avoid the whole “opt out” issue by making or someone else’s problem…
  21. notin
    It’s misapplied. None of Jordan Montgomery, Luis Gil, Andrew Heaney or Jordan Lyles qualifies an an “outside force”…
  22. notin
    As an engineer/physicist, no. Momentum describes motion that can continue to move forward. After all, momentum is mass times velocity, and Newton told us objects in motion tend to stay in motion. That’s the Misapplied Physics Lesson for today…

    This isn’t the NFL with non-guaranteed contracts and this isn’t the NBA with contract buyouts. Spending in MLB has no such escapes. What is showing up in the field is the byproduct of spending heavily in the recent past…
  24. notin
    Exactly…
  25. notin
    No on momentum, especially as it gets described on here. But yes on hot streaks..
