  1. Troy O’Leary needs some Bad Glove Love, too
  2. There are still some pills left…
  3. I don’t believe in juju. It messes up my karma…
  4. He starts off against the lower part of the order and just keeps it going…
  5. Again, what’s the difference in having Pivetta pitch innings 1 through 5 and having the bullpen pitch 6 through 9, and having an opener pitch innings 1 and 2, Pivetta pitch inning 3 through 7, and then the other bullpen arms pitch innings 8 and 9?
  6. As one of the more bold (and even accurate in my Daniel Nava/Clay Buchholz/WAPM days) predictors whose already out on a fairly shaky Paul Blackburn limb for the trade deadline, I will tell you guessing when a player will actually get hurt is nothing but luck. How does that cement credibility when the end result is based on nothing but luck?
  7. Exactly what is your point here? Hoping to dash my credibility and “dispel the myth” that frequently injured players get injured frequently?
  8. It’s silly to blame a team for ruining a guy’s career by putting an inadequate defense behind him. Even if it only had one Gold Glover. Texas also never had Gabbard throw more than 107 pitches in any start. Gabbard simply got hurt through no fault of his defense (like most pitchers do) and was never able to recover fully. Add this to the fact that he was a borderline talent to begin with, and it spells can and often does end a career. It happens. That doesn’t make out Texas’ fault…
  9. But that was the year Ian Kinsler won his only Gold Glove…
  10. And yet, am I ever wrong about certain players?
  11. Not to mention, Webster and De La Rosa were traded for Wade Miley, who was in turn traded for Carson Smith. It just keeps giving…
  12. Right. Only trading Verdugo if we nosedive? Before you commit to that, how confident were you that Benintendi wasn’t going anywhere and Renfroe would be the Sox RF before each was dealt?
  13. Yes. As he was last winter…
  14. What’s the difference in Schreiber tossing one IP followed by Pivetta for 5-6 or Pivetta starting the game for 5-6 IP followed by Schreiber for 1IP?
  15. Worth noting, Robertson will require a 40 man roster spot; Haggeman will not…
  16. If they deal Verdugo, he would play every day…
  17. It’s not exciting, but for two months of a well-paid glove-first CF with limited offensive skills, it’s not bad. Fangraphs had Robertson at Dodgers’ #46 before the season. Haggeman was outside the top 51, which is not surprising given his age and struggles in AAA last year…
  18. Sox received 25yo RHP Nick Robertson (6.10 ERA in 10 IP in LA) and 26yo Justin Haggeman (2.78 ERA and 1.077 WHIP in 55 IP in AAA). Actually a fairly modest return…
  19. I think they want his glove in CF and suspect current CF Josh Outman is a mediocre defender who hasn’t hit much since April…
  20. He could absolutely, assuming he is fully healed…
  21. And yet the Dodgers wanted him back…
  22. Maybe we got Matt Andriese and Ryan Brasier back!!
  23. Per MLBTR, a pair of upper minors relief pitchers…
  24. His OPS since returning is well below .700. I think the emergence of Duran is a bigger factor…
  25. Plenty of them don’t have their families in the city they play already. And some don’t even have their families in the USA.
