    Andriese has started 11 games in the past 3 years. He was not acquired to be anything but a bullpen arm/rotation depth...

    Right now the Sox have a payroll of $205 million. That's a bit much to just sit back and let other teams make all the postseason money. If they were actually rebuilding and taking seasons off, they would have traded away actual salary. They didn't. Bear in mind, even the Yankees did. Yet the Sox didn't. Going over might not be a bad thing here. If the Sox make smart moves, they could certainly make the post-season this year...

    With our fragile rotation? If they move Houck down to Worcester to start the season, he should just rent, not buy...

    Maybe. I like him over Brice and Valdez, too. But if they keep him in Worcester actually starting games, that's probably better. Our rotation features both Nate Eovaldi and Garrett Richards. Houck will be starting at Fenway before mid-May. Book it...

    Translation: Not wearing pinstripes. Must be insulted. This would come across way cooler if I could type in some 1970's style sci fi robot voice...

    Honestly, if we get to accept small sample sizes, did you know Mariano Rivera only pitched in one World Series game 7 of his entire career? And how did that go? 2/3 IP and 3 runs allowed. Sure they were unearned, but it was his error. So I guess when the lights got their true brightest, he faded too. Now someone get him outta the Hall!!!

    Or next week?

    The “longest deal in the Bloom Era” is now a standard? The guy did sign Kevin Kiermaier to a longer deal than that. Just not on his first day...

    Rattled reliever? 3/4 of his ER against came in 2 outings, and he posted 25/9 K/BB numbers in 22 innings. What’s he like when he’s not rattled?
  10. notin
    Still not sure that means Ozuna or Bauer are walking through that door...

    Bloom had 22 outings and gave up 12 ER. He gave up 6 ER in one outing, and then 6 more ER in the other 21 combined. I’d say that one bad outing definitely ruined an otherwise good season...

    Ottavino's numbers last year do look bad at first glance, but he did give up 6 of his 12 ER in one outing (in which he logged 0 IP). So his 5.89 ERA for the season was a 2.94 in all his other games. And of those remaining 6 earned runs, he gave up 3 more in one other game. So in his other 22 games, he only gave up 3 ER total in 17.2 IP (1.52 ERA). He really did not pitch badly last year but instead just had 2 bad games...

    The Ottavino acquisition itself is not a bad move, and neither is acquiring German. It just depends on how it affects the budget going forward, if there is one (which it looks like there is.)

    I was annoyed they did not end the tied All Star game this way. Much more fun than making it matter, which was the stupidest decision by a Commissioner in the history of organized sports in the USA...

    The Sale extension also had more potential to affect winning that the signing of Eovaldi.

    Carlos Santana signed with the Royals weeks ago

    I am surprised the Sox did not just have Whitlock's rights included in the deal...

    In 2019, Puello did have 6 DRS in CF in only 148 innings. That total alone tied him for 10th in MLB with 3 other players (including Marisnick) who all played 687 innings or more...

    ... which we might be sending back to them to complete the trade...

    thank you

    No, because she always freezes in place every time she throws to first...

    I'm putting my money on Payamps and Springs...

    ..which means they are not in the same situation. Also, unlike us, they have a bullpen...
  24. notin
    Well, you have to imagine how bad mine would be. I think a big factor is his reduced number of games. Hard to accrue those defensive wins when you are not on the field. But his DRS totals are actually typically very good...

    You're all high on Taillon, but not enough to give up the MLB.com #48 prospect?
