My call for Breakout Prospect of the Year! Of course, being right here gets me nothing. Then again, same deal if I’m wrong...
-
It might be more widespread than you think if they don’t all generate publicity... -
Please provide a billing address. Thank you. Also, 30yo Bryce Brentz is simply not a major leaguer...
-
I don’t think 29yo Mike Miller and his career minor league .668 OPS was ever a threat to supplant Xander Bogaerts. Lin is a utility infielder at best and Travis is a replacement level player who gets the call only when someone hits the IL so he can, well, replace them temporarily. His future will include a DFA at some point...
-
Even if Brentz was 16 for 16 with 16 HRs, I don’t think it effects Betts or Benintendi one bit...
-
That’s because we’ve all see Kenyans run a marathon at a pace that’s faster than our sprinting speed...
-
Agreed. While I do think he is still the Sox best defensive catcher, thinking Sandy Leon is going to fix the rotation is like thinking a severed leg can be treated with a band aid...
-
We’ve seen teams deliberately coddle investment players (Strasburg) and players/agents deliberately take their own precautions when money is on the line (Matt Harvey). Let’s not pretend this is a new concept from either side...
-
Doesn’t the fact that they were committed sort of undermine their analysis?
-
Exactly. And now that Sale is locked up for this year and the five after it, do they worry more, the same, or less than if they knew he was gone after 2019? It’s like how the Nationals pulled Strasburg from the postseason for fear of his arm. They were worried about his next 5 years...
-
It can be the Canadian Standards Association, the official airline of the Czech Republic, or the Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord, which was a white supremacist organization from Arkansas. But I think given the context, he is referring to the Czech airlines...
-
There is a big difference between “caring less” and “not caring”...
-
Well, don’t you think they need to be concerned about a $150mill investment?
-
If the Sox didn’t extend him, I could see caring less about his arm...
-
But the bullpen pitchers, who did see plenty of Spring Training action, don’t miss him?
-
Shall we bet it doesn’t last all season?
-
I do think they started the season unprepared, which is a big reason why they have sucked. Unless someone has a better theory about how all five starters are in the same massive slump and are all pitching well below their career numbers all at the same time...
-
Absolutely. Sign Vélez and have him and Davis bat back to back, offering some sort of “protection” in the lineup. And have a contest where the winner has to guess the date of the next hit either gets...
-
People panic way too early. Someone called game 3 against Seattle a “must win” game last week. There is no such thing as a Must Win MLB game in March...
-
Former record holder Eugenio Vélez is only 36 and his 0 for 46 streak is technically still active, as it was the last 46 at bats he played in the majors. I think Baltimore should sign Eugenio Vélez and have him compete his “task” of dethroning Davis for the title ...
-
He still can’t field. I’ll keep you posted if this changes...
-
The pitching stuff does have a proven track record of pitching better when Leon is behind the plate. The starters complete failure right now is probably more due to barely throwing in Spring Training games and not the catcher. But at some point, Leon might actually be back. It’s not like Swihart and Vazquez are world-beaters back there...
-
But then who goes?
-
The Red Sox are 1-6 in games where they score first, with that one win coming in a 1-0 game in AZ. So therefore, the Sox are 0-6 in games where they score first and the other team scores at all...
-
Sox hitters are at a huge disadvantage by not getting to face Sox pitchers...
