    Well ok then. Just message me your credit card info and I’ll get those tickets out to you...

    Given that Shane Greene has saved all 10 of Detroit’s prior wins, does that mean this 4-run lead is Detroit’s largest in the ninth inning this season?
  3. notin
    And officially the Legend of Rudy Pemberton is erased from our minds...

    They only have two non-duds. And even one of them might be a dud in disguise...
  5. notin
    The Sox might need him once they decide to cut bait with Colten Brewer...
  6. notin
    Not sure why Dombrowski kept trying to acquire Colten Brewer...

    Strip Go Fish? Bear in mind that the original question asked about “two guys”...
  8. notin
    I can’t believe we pay to watch them. Would you shell out hard-earned cash to watch two guys play checkers? Or Go Fish?
  9. notin
    And in many cases, their earned runs score on hits given up by the next guy...

    It ERA isn’t runs. It’s “earned runs,” which can be vastly different if your defense sucks...

    Ouija board. Duh!
  12. notin
    But ERA was created to be used on relief pitchers
  13. notin
    Maybe. Or 1b if Moreland doesn’t come back. Or 2b if he isn’t a complete disaster defensively. Or DD will flat out trade him for a CF to replace Bradley...

    Considering every team has avoided him to date, what makes you so sure?
  15. notin
    JD won’t be leaving for a while. Even if he opts out, the Sox will re-sign him. No one else was very interested in him last year when he was coming off a career best season, and he’s probably Dombrowski’s biggest success as a reclamation project...

    Not a big Gio Gonzalez fan, but a minor league deal with or without an opt out would be fine with me...

    Even if Verlander won the Cy Young - and I thought Kluber was the better candidate- it doesn’t change the fact that Porcello was inarguably a legitimate candidate. Don’t lump all non-Cy Young winners together into one big category where they are all equal. Porcello was absolutely outstanding that year, hardware or not...

    . I plan on proliferating the “mvp78 is a slimy lawyer” mantra...

    Oh S5 is an unabashed eye test advocate. That argument has transcended multiple message boards...

    Blair also played incredibly shallow CF. He was usually maybe 100 feet or less behind 2b. The only other players I ever saw who rivaled him there were Lee Mazzilli and Terry Puhl and Rick Manning. Those are some names I never thought I’d mention again...

    Paul O’Neill. The kid asked him to hit 2 HRs (which O’Neill complained about). O’Neill hit one and then had a triple with an error, so the kid refused to give back Steinbrenner’s birthday card that George accidentally gave him...

    As for this part of the response, Michael Taylor might be a good replacement for JBJ if the latter cannot be re-signed. He’s another no bat/all glove CF with some occasional pop and is blocked by younger players with more control, so he will continue to be available until he’s moved. Basically he’s a right-handed Bradley...
  23. notin
    You don’t have to prove it. JBJ proves his worth with his defense every season. Even fWAR agrees and it doesn’t matter if they value some other CFs defense more. All that matters is JBJ keeps doing what he’s doing. And I will say, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many fans get worked up about the offensive contributions from the #8 hitter as they do with JBJ...

    And whether he thinks Chavis is “ready” or not doesn’t take into consideration that 3 of the Sox 5 players with 2b experience (not counting Pearce) are on the IL. There’s no reason to not bulk up Chavis’ experience with some OJT...

    A moment of lucidity. We don’t know everything and the media sometimes gives us partial quotes, and even then can’t print intonation.
