  1. Now that Sale and Schwarber are active, much of disappointment is dissipating. There just seems to be urgency now to this season. Schwarber's rehab game on Thursday was rained out. Sox just said hell with it and put him in the lineup on Friday. I like that. Dalbec is heating up. Kike has been hot now 3/4 weeks? Renfroe is steady. Duran will help. Brasier should be back. Arroyo should be back. We're finally playing the hot catcher more. Verdugo needs to pick it up offensively. JD, Devers and Xander have been very solid overall. Our rotation is shaping up and pitching better. Hopefully Richards and Perez can contribute in the pen. It's definitely far from being over.
  2. 1.389 Dalbec in August...keep the hot bat in the lineup
  3. Which again proves the point that it's always better trade one of them for two prospects again and again if given the opportunity. It is crapshoot. More players you have better chance you'll get some decent major leaguers.
  4. Third year penalty for going over by say $10M is $5M. How much money did we have to match Moncada acquisition? It was TONS more than $5M we're worried about.
  5. I suggested this couple of years ago. Whatever team you're with when you are eligible for Rookie of the Year, that team is your designated 'home' team. 'Home' team can have one exemption each year (it can change player from year to year) on one single player and caps luxury tax payroll at say $20M on said player. So we could have paid Betts $30M, but only $20M would count against the luxury tax payroll. What if we then sign Devers for $35M? He's also a 'homer' so you can now count Betts at $30 but Devers only at $20M. Player's union would love this. Sox would not have to count $15M of Devers annual salary because he's 'homegrown'. This encourages teams such as Sox to retain fan favorites. Sale's AAV is $25.6M. Sox would have 'saved' $5.6M for another quality reliever.
  6. 1.389 for August!!!!!
  7. Dalbec OPS creeping above .700 with a homer today. Maybe the patience will pay off.
  8. When it comes to Sox player getting hurt, my trusted source is jacksonianmarch......he's usually the first to give us the bad news...
  9. Verdugo should have stayed home and worked on his diaper changing skills. He'd be a hit with his wife. He's 0-4 tonight.
  10. Bobby, Bobby, Bobby....
  11. Unfortunately with our pen of late, it's not over. We better score some insurance runs.
  12. 6 innings, 3 hits, 1 HR to 9th batter, 93 pitches Call it a day.....good job.
  13. Nope...sit next to Vaz.
  14. no way he goes 7...only 10 times has our starters gone 7.0 innings
  15. It's clear cut who should be playing if you go strictly by OPS....assuming Schwarber can play 1B. Vaz on the bench. Verdugo has the lowest OPS among the starting 9.
  16. I don't see Bloom giving up a top farm guy for a rental. I think he intends to go after Schwarber. At worst he can DH and play LF. We have 40 some games to evaluate him. He's a natural hitter.
  17. Spoke too soon... What is it about our pitchers and 9th hitters?
  18. See Pivetta can have a shut down inning....that's what you do after given a 4 run lead.
  19. Here comes our K twins....
  20. Starting Schwarber without rehab stints indicate urgency of his bat.....we're running out of season.
  21. got to jump on them...
  22. good recap BUT How long do we baby Whitlock? Tell me why he can't pitch 200 innings? He'll be 26, 3 years removed from TJ. Why do we baby these athletes? Get me a MAN. Tired of these wusses. And I'm the president of Whitlock fan club. Of course with average start of 5 IP they would need to start 40 games and that's not happening.
  23. You're saying Rays have only had 5 starts of 7 IP or more? I guess they have great bullpen. Or is it 10 when you add in Glasnow? I'm little confused with(out all year). You mean he's now out for the year?
  24. 7+ INNINGS BY STARTERS 7.0 4/07 Eovaldi vs TB 7.0 4/25 E Rod vs SEA 7.0 4/27 Richards vs NYM 7.0 5/08 Richards vs BAL 7.2 6/03 PereZ vs HOU 7.2 6/28 Eovaldi vs NYY 7.0 7/01 Eovaldi vs KC 7.0 7/04 Pivetta vs OAK 7.2 7/24 Eovaldi vs NYY 7.0 8/11 Eovaldi vs TB 10 Games Total Anyone know how to get this for other AL teams? I had to go pitcher by pitcher for Sox. It's crazy to think no one has gone 8 innings. Are hitters more patient, driving up the pitch count?
  25. YES WE'VE SEEN ENOUGH OF MARWIN, CORA'S FAVORITE. Yes, I've seen enough of Dalbec. His whiff rate is hurting the team. IF THEY DO BRING BACK SANTANA THEN I WILL QUESTION EVERYONE'S INTELLIGENCE OF BASEBALL OPS. Free Agent Misses Richards Perez Marwin Santana Two jokers at trade deadline
