    They seem to find more pitchers that way, too…

    Hey I’m not the one who DFAd you

    Posts 5 and 8? He suggested irritating pitchers over hitting home runs. And made it sound like they were only hitting solo home runs. Hitting home runs is scoring 100% of the time. Irritating pitchers is a good strategy, but it simply didn’t lead to scoring that often. I get their home run volume is low and they’d be thorns to pitchers more often. But you look at OBP for that. Not home runs. Is hitting 8-10 home runs really taking down their OBP that much? And with Duran, he has 23 doubles and 10 triples hitting like he is. But he doesn’t bother the pitcher as much with those extra bases. So are those also a bad thing?

    Irritating the pitcher over scoring runs? That was the original premise. Sometimes, you just gotta take the runs. Scratch that. Always take the runs. Scoring runs is a good thing. (Also those little guys putting one over the wall has gotta get under the skin of a few pitchers.)

    I think no on Jansen. But yes on the other three…

    Wild card game? There have been updates to the playoff format…
  7. notin
    No. The mistake was doing nothing at all…
  8. notin
    Why? We’re in the playoff picture now with a team everyone pegged for last place…

    Obviously no one is untouchable “in the right trade.” But I’d think “the right trade” for Teel is much lower quality than the right trade for Anthony or Mayer…

    True, but you might not have to go so overboard typing teams that insist on not taking the entire salary. And a lot of teams do keep their top prospects off the market as well…

    Notin-recommended trade target Tyler “Not Chase” Anderson pitched today. 8IP, 3H, 0ER, 0BB, 10K and evened his record at 8-8. He’s not going to come as cheaply as BTV suggests with their surplus value at $(-4) million. Presumably, there will be other interested teams. Anderson makes $13mill this year and is under contract formanother $13mil in 2025, which will eliminate a few interested teams. But if the Sox can take on all the money they can keep themselves in the picture…

    If you go unclaimed, will you accept your assignment to only post on Worcester Red Sox forums?

    It’s July 6th. Can we at least wait until July 15th to complain about Breslow’s lack of activity on July 31st?
  14. notin
    Only one MLB pitcher has been traded so far. Breslow doesn’t have a dance partner…

    Might as well let him just finish this one. Might take 3 more hours…

    Weissert retired one hitter today and that on a 100 mph line drive hit right at the RF. Anderson is a white flag here. Sox need to get a SP and put Winckowski back in the bullpen where he is needed most…
  17. notin
    Weissert has slowed down a lot lately. But at some point Cora has to use everybody…

    Double play here would be nice, but Valdez-Hamilton up the middle doesn’t inspire me much…
  19. notin
    Yes but I prefer him in the rotation less often…
  20. notin
    I agree, but that very sentiment was the theme of roughly 50% of all posts on this board from December through March…
  21. notin
    Anyone fooled by Soto pretending he’s going to bunt?
  22. notin
    But in reality Cole was being bled out with paper cuts…
  23. notin
    I can’t believe Devers stole a base!
  24. notin
    Amazing throw by Judge considering he was standing flat footed. Probably gets anyone but Hamilton or Duran…
  25. notin
    Is Winckowski trying to pitch in a strike zone that’s above the normal strike zone?
