  1. Taking those longshot risks, the chances are slim of making it to the safe refuge of a foxhole.
  2. On this date a year ago the Seattle Mariners were 5.5 games back in the Wild Card race with an 11.2 percent chance of advancing to the postseason: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/fg/wc?date=2018-08-28&dateDelta= Today the Red Sox are six games back in the Wild Card race with a 7.1 percent chance of advancing to the postseason: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/fg/wc The Red Sox are projected to fall just short of the 89 wins posted by the Mariners last year.
  3. According to this website, Michael Chavis carries a surplus value of $12.1 million and Bobby Dalbec a surplus value of $13.2 million: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/
  4. The Seattle Mariners did not help Monday night, going 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position in a one-run loss to the Yankees.
  5. According to one website, David Price, Nathan Eovaldi and Chris Sale have median negative values of $44.8 million, $26.6 million and $14 million, respectively: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/
  6. Seattle players under years of team control: ... plus top prospects: https://www.lookoutlanding.com/2019/8/20/20812419/industry-experts-weigh-in-on-mariners-top-prospects ... from a well regarded farm system: https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2019-in-season-prospect-list/farm-ranking?sort=-1,1&type=100&filter=&pos=&team= The Mariners were in contention for much of last season, finishing with more wins than the Red Sox are projected to post this year despite baseball's highest payroll: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2019-mlb-predictions/
  7. Or the "great defensive JBJ" could turn the Red Sox into a contender!
  8. The Mariners are unlikely to do that trade because Jackie Bradley Jr. still does not fit within Seattle's window of contention: https://www.talksox.com/forum/threads/19224-The-annual-Jackie-Bradley-Jr-thread-(2019-Edition)?p=1236332&highlight=harmony#post1236332
  9. Good stuff ... both of you.
  10. The follow-up question was essentially: How easy?
  11. This poster did not bring Keon Broxton's name into this thread. His inclusion was merely odd because Broxton is under another team's control.
  12. Domingo Santana is unlikely to be patrolling the outfield for Seattle in 2020. "Broxton's .514 OPS in Seattle isn't screaming" the Red Sox "COVET ME.":)
  13. The point was that a poster recommended the Red Sox acquire a player under another team's control for three more seasons. Unless that team releases Keon Broxton (which is a possibility), the Red Sox would need to trade for him. And the Mariners may need Broxton more than the Sox do. The Red Sox should probably look elsewhere.
  14. Why would Seattle give away three years of Keon Broxton when the Mariners need outfielders to bridge the gap to touted prospects Jarred Kelenic, Julio Rodriguez and Kyle Lewis? At least one poster thinks Keon Broxton has value:
  15. A harmonious poster respectfully offers substance free of personal attacks, name-calling, profanity and unfounded allegations.
  16. At least the Red Sox get a day off before and after the two-game series in Colorado. The Yankees play tonight in Los Angeles before flying to Seattle for a three-game series that starts on Monday. FWIW, Denver is closer to San Diego than Seattle is to Los Angeles. BTW the Mariners have won four straight series, the last three against AL East clubs, including two road series.
  17. On a positive note, the Red Sox won a series on the West Coast for the first time this season.
  18. Brian Johnson turns 29 years old in December.
  19. I've been to only four MLB games this year but Joey Lucchesi was a starter in two of those games: one in Washington DC and one in San Diego: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/WAS/WAS201904280.shtml https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SDN/SDN201905170.shtml The 26-year-old lefthander has posted 2.1 fWAR and 1.6 bWAR in 24 starts this season.
  20. What if I regularly visited a neighbor who routinely reminded me how inferior my life is?
  21. Check post #182 in this thread: https://www.talksox.com/forum/threads/19439-Countdown-to-Playoffs-2019-edition?p=1278065#post1278065
  22. https://library.fangraphs.com/misc/war/ https://www.baseball-reference.com/about/war_explained.shtml
  23. Whom could the Red Sox trade to Seattle for Keon Broxton, who should have three years of team control after this season? https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/broxtke01.shtml
  24. A year ago today the Seattle Mariners were four games back in the Wild Card race with a 21.1 percent chance of advancing to the postseason: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/fg/wc?date=2018-08-23&dateDelta= The Red Sox are currently seven games back in the Wild Card race with a 3.6 percent chance of advancing to the postseason: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/fg/wc
  25. The Guardians have a better record against AL East teams than the Yankees and Rays have against the AL Central: 2024 MLB Standings and Records: Regular Season | MLB.com WWW.MLB.COM The official standings for Major League Baseball including division and league standings for regular season, wild card, and playoffs. The Red Sox have feasted on the AL Central, the only division against which the Sox have a winning record.
