This is true. I did learn that. But the rest of your postulate is mush. Pardon my eloquence…
-
To sender?
-
I don’t think Houck has much going on in there too cause worry…
-
Fun day at Wrigley. Fatima needs to go. Glad we passed on legitimate MLB RHSP Chris Flexen to keep that roster spot open…
-
Now if the Sox do need a full time SS over Chang/Reyes, maybe it really is Ceddane Rafaela time. CF in Boston is looking less and less likely for his future with every Duran start…
-
On the bright side, several Sox pitchers are probably better hitters than Alfaro…
-
… or a weak side platoon option…
-
And I’m definitely right that that doesn’t mean post season always equals clutch…
-
Then why operate on the massively flawed premise that “postseason = clutch and regular season = non-clutch”? No one has really ever given a good definition of clutch, but this is absolutely one of the weaker ones. You’re not the first to make it, but that didn’t mean it got more true…
-
I think Kike’s D in CF is enough of a game changer it supersedes the entirety of what Duvall and Refsnyder bring to the table…
-
We will use it in the comparative sense with the other option as Chris Murphy. Or Brandon Walter…
-
No. I’m calling it a wildly inaccurate one. The overwhelming bulk of hits in the postseason have little to no impact on the outcome of the game, and not every game is a close game. If we pressed it down to individual hits, would the definition of “clutch” get expanded to include some hits just because it’s the postseason?
-
Ok once again, this is a prediction. Not a preference…
-
Your entire premise is flawed that clutch is decided by postseason numbers. By your argument, every two out single with no one on base through the month of October is a clutch hit, and that’s not some random occurrence but rather something that happens in every postseason game…
-
Due to illness. He missed one start and threw 1IP the next day. He’s not a game-changer, but you’re over-analysis is very superficial and misleading…
-
As opposed to Refsnyder in CF?
-
What stats, if you please…
-
If it gets to the point where Bloom has to manage the lineup, Cora should just get fired. And that’s probably what would happen. I think these two are more on the same page than critics of either individual want to acknowledge…
-
As a CF, Kike is light years in front of Duvall, who in turn is light years ahead of Refsnyder. Kike is the best option to back up Duran in CF…
-
I think we do not see Duran or Yoshida. Refsnyder gets DH and Duvall in LF. Verdugo plays in RF as one of two lefties in the lineup. Casas sits with Turner at 1b. Around the rest of them infield we will see Arroyo, Chang and Devers (the other lefty, obviously). Plug Kike in at CF and Alfaro behind the plate and play ball…
-
So is Arroyo the only player on the Sox allowed to go on the IL? If Duran goes down, who is the better option in CF - Hernandez or Duvall?
-
I’m sure that conversation has happened. Cora is probably satisfied with Kike as a backup. It might have even been his idea for all we know…
-
This is a cop out. 3 actual MLB franchises did pass on him. Jay Groome was the top-rated talent in the 2016 draft. So do we call this a no-brainer move by Dombrowski to take him at 12? You’re oversimplifying the draft process. Selecting the player is the easy part. Signing them is the tough part. Especially high schoolers like Mayer who have the option of going to college and re-entering the draft later if they don’t like their initial offer…

As a bench option/supersub, Hernandez has value in Boston…
