  1. Orioles DFAd Politi…
  2. B-R didn’t have his McGuire numbers, but his numbers with Vazquez and Plawecki are more similar than ERA suggests. His K/BB, for example, was 3.06 with KP and 3.20 with CV. His BAA, OBPA and SLGA were all worse with KP, but in each case by roughly the same amount as his BABIPA. Not sure how much a catcher can influence BABIP…
  3. I think some are a bit hard on Verdugo. Yes he’sa far cry from Betts or Evans, but he probably has the best arm of any Sox outfielder, at least velocity-wise. Per StatCast, he did make the hardest throw of any Sox OF last season. (Average velocity of outfielders is worthless due to the numerous lobs and soft tosses.) However, Verdugo certainly has an accuracy issue with his throwing…
  4. We don’t know yet if they met my conditional requirements…
  5. It might have been better if: 1) Rich Hill didn’t have the shortest leash in the history of MLB. 2) they didn’t use their best reliever in the piggyback role.
  6. Someone will always be hurt…
  7. .. and one that was compounded multiple times by DFAing other players over Ort…
  8. Alfaro is a legitimate power threat in the same way Dalbec is…
  9. Hopefully true. But you’re assuming they get back before Sale and Kluber get injured…
  10. I assumed Joan Rivers…
  11. So right now , based on your last two answers. I can’t tell if you’re a 60-something year old man who looks like a frog wearing pants. Or an angry pre-teen girl…
  12. Frankly I’d much prefer the Sox got an external SP and put Houck back in the bullpen…
  13. Wrong Bono. And how old are you that THAT’S your Go To Bono?
  14. Just abort..
  15. Hey Yahoo is THE prime internet source of actresses in their 50’s modeling bikinis!! Get with it!
  16. I did criticize the deal, but only half-ass since Mills was a former Tampa farmhand and figured Bloom knew something…
  17. Thank you, Buzzkill Bono…
  18. BTV liked it as well…
  19. Dalbec to Philly for LHP Michael Plassmeyer. Philly lost Rhys Hoskins for the season and could use a RHH compliment for Darick Hall, a 27yo former 14th round pick with 142 career PA (and 44 strikeouts). Dalbec, being a former Dombrowski draft pick, is a solution he’s familiar with. Plassmeyer is a 25yo LHP with good numbers but getting to be part of a bullpen crunch in Philly. Roster Resource doesn’t have him in their bullpen but he is on the 40 man roster, so trading him opens a spot for Dalbec…
  20. 1. That’s good news because Ort isn’t external. 2. Reread point #1…
  21. I only named dates. Although I’d probably have kept Park over Ort, too, if I had that option…
  22. I don’t get the Wallace/Mills trade. But part of that was me clearly valuing Wallace more than Bloom did, and also me knowing absolutely nothing about Mills. I still really don’t…
  23. Oooh… the ol’ False Sense of Security stategy. They could release Goodrum. I’m fine with that. He could also ride the bench in Worcester. Whatever. He’s absolutely the least of the Sox problems right now…
  24. Those are the dates. Don’t blame me. Park was acquired 11/23 as well. Either way, not many are happy with the whole Ort/Ward thing, but Ort has done absolutely nothing to justify it, and simply keeping him on the roster and hoping that happens is even more foolish. At this point, it’s not even Ward. I’d much rather have held onto to German over both Ort and Ward…
  25. I hope Worcester management will do something similar. Goodrum is just a warm body right now…
