    I went to Indiana this summer. My daughter and I walked into a store and we were the only two people wearing masks...

    Is that your impression of Mel Allen?

    And he still lead all MLB shortstops in UZR/150 in that time frame (min: 1,000 innings) while playing on one ankle. And even with his reduced playing time, he still finished in the top 5 in UZR and top 8 in DRS. That's ridiculous...

    You left out players who are not from the NW but went to college in that area. Also, I assume it applies to anyone whose dad played for the Mariners. (I'm talking to you, Michael Brantley.)

    Do people normally obey those things in your neighborhood? No one pays them any attention down near me...

    There is a chance JD never returns to form, but he is also immovable on that current deal. But is JD an 81 OPS+ hitter? Sanchez is a 99 OPS+ hitter over the past 3 seasons. So is a declining JDM better than Sanchez? He might be. The one thing Sanchez has going for him is that he is still only 27 years old...

    No. Just facing it as you watch your destination disappear over the horizon...

    And play him where? 1b? And bench Dalbec? DH? And move JDM to LF and Benintendi to CF?
  14. notin
    I don’t think they deserve a fourth outfielder who can play CF. Not after they let Cesar Puello slip through their fingers...

    My question was harmony’s comment about Boston being an unlikely destination. Based on what? Boston needs SP. Walker is a SP. The only reason it’s an unlikely destination will be the number of teams looking for starters. But all of them will be equally unlikely. Except Seattle. That team will be the least likely, and by a lot. Too much air travel, and no one likes air travel...

    Honestly, as someone who has never met either of them, I wouldn't know that. Sure the public personas are probably very nice. But then we all used to think Bill Cosby was a nice guy, too...

    LOL But how many teams that drank together won it all? And we can’t go pretending the 2004 Red Sox, a team with 3 Cooperstown-caliber players, didn’t use their talent. By contrast, the 2011 Red Sox drank together and it became a notorious scapegoat...

    Like I said, we leap to “choke” too quickly a lot, especially in the MLB postseason. Remember when Price had that label, but one crazy poster on this board kept posing the possibility that it might be related to fatigue. And then what happened in 2018? Price threw fewer IP and had a really good postseason...
  25. notin
    Yeah but I bet they don't do it with the same regularity fans do. For example, they might label a singular instance of a player failing as "choking," but do they ever label a player who repeatedly failed in key instances as a choker? And they also throw around the concepts of "team chemistry" and "team identity" but never really tell anyone what they mean. They might not be as informative as we like to think they are...
