  1. Then it was a bad move. We needed a Plan B first…
  2. Fairly certain jad was as well…
  3. Oops. Typed it. It’s his age 26 season. Not even going back to fix it..,
  4. They have to carry him for 90 days on the active roster. They can also not demote him all year…
  5. Well, I’m wiling to listen on Kike’s D as mediocre based on what’s supporting it. But to just say “that’s my opinion” (which, to be fair, was NOT said by the original poster who postulated it) is obviously going to garner questions and counterpoints…
  6. Not so sure that’s the definition of “opinion” as much as it is the definition of “delusion.” But that’s just my opinion. Also Noah Webster’s…
  7. And to say his defense was “mediocre?” Mediocre by definition means “ordinary or below average.” It’s a comparative description. So am I too assume anyone who finds Kike’s D as mediocre has found roughly 15 centerfielders who are better?
  8. Oh well. Why have data supporting a conclusion when someone can disagree based on absolutely nothing?
  9. Based on what? Hernandez was 4th in MLB for Defensive Runs Saved among MLB CFs for 2021-22, behind only Taylor, Straw and Buxton…
  10. And as he turns 26 before July 1, this is his age 26 season. Exactly as I said…
  11. I’m wondering if we’re looking at the pitchers all wrong and getting too caught up in old scouting reports defended by “you think he forgot how to pitch?” The real question is - did he ever know? Since 2020: Ward (age 26) has 81 IP (33 IP above A ball) Song (age 27) has 0 IP Groome (age 25) has 241 IP (160 IP above A ball) Ort (age 31) has 114 IP, all of it in AAA and MLB. I’ve shown no love for Ort for a while now, but even as a reliever he has managed to log more IP at tougher levels than the players lost to Rule 5. And Groome looks more likely to be “the one that got away” than either Ward or Song…
  12. Then why did you post Tomase’s opinion?
  13. The rotation on Opening Day was: 1. Eovaldi 2. Martin Perez 3. Ryan Weber 4. Josh Osich 5. Matt Hall The bullpen featured Austin Brice, Robert Stock, and Kyle Hart. By season’s end, many of us thought Chris Mazza might be good. He wasn’t good. He also wasn’t Zack Godley, so we thought he might be…
  14. Also remember the starting pitchers for games 3,4 and 5 in 2020 were Ryan Weber, Josh Osich and Matt Hall. Game, set and match…
  15. And it’s not exactly shocking he got injured. Not to mention, if Dombrowski is trying to pull something off here, this would literally be the dumbest way to do it. Song’s biggest problem is the lack of pitching; burying him on the injured list is not a remedy for that. All of this lamenting for a guy who hasn’t pitched in years is weird. We don’t even know of he’s any good any more. Jay Groome was at least pitching when he got dealt and no one seems to miss him one bit…
  16. If he’s so Great and Objective, why can’t he remember 2020?
  17. Only watching. Not playing. Not attending…
  18. I’ll try. Just getting back from AZ…
  19. They’ve needed to for months…
  20. Well it is one way to help learn a local language. But as an English-speaking American who once moved to a non-English speaking country, a much better way is to watch movies that you’re already familiar with in the new language. Talk radio offers almost nothing in that regard
  21. Usually the guy who spends more money has the shorter leash…
  22. I think you’re inflating your (and our) importance. There are probably 10,000 Red Sox forums on the Internet. The chances that anyone in the Sox organization even knows this website exists are almost nil. Also growing up nowadays with any athletic skill garners so much positive attention from family, friends and hangers-on that anyone who actually makes MLB could easily have an entourage that filters the media…
  23. That’s fine. Good for him in learning a second language. Of course, it still doesn’t mean he listens to local talk radio in English…
  24. The underscored message here is Ort made the parent club…
  25. I’m willing to bet most players don’t even listen to local sports talk radio. Why would they?
