Casas AB HR RBI AVG OBP OPS Month 73 3 06 .137 .284 .585 April 70 3 08 .257 .338 .767 May 84 3 11 .286 .375 .851 June Gotta keep playing him.

At some point, subtracting Kike will be positive for the Sox. Right now, I rather see anyone else than Kike....even Valdez who is playing AAA.
-
Ever the optimist. At least you don't give up.
-
Ok i will quit being a dick. I just don't think we have enough for playoffs. I am more concerned about building for future. I see Wong Casas Story Mayer Devers Duran Verdugo Rafaela and Yoshida as the core going forward. Throw in Refs Abreu Yorke as other possibilities. Our pitching staff needs work. I am not counting Sale at all. Whitlock is fast approaching Sale clone injury wise. That's one reason I am so hard on Kike and Duval. They are on a one year deal. They are not being productive.
-
Kike comes through again. 0-3 with 3 Ks. Stranding runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out. Nice $10M investment.
-
Who was that f***ing idiot making fun of me when I said I prefer Duran over Duval? He has turned 3 singles into 3 doubles today. My main point was Duran is under team control for 5 more years. Why would you want him sitting on bench?
-
If I went 0-5 with 4k's I wouldn't want to play today either.
-
Scorer really gave hit on Kike's dropped ball? The inning would have been over on next groundball had Keike made that catch. Unreal. Grading on curve much?
-
I am really curious about that play. Who initiated it? I doubt it was the pitcher. So was it Hamilton or Kike? Dumbest play with 3-2 count WITH runner on 3rd
-
You can always count on Kike at short in a middle of cluster f***.
-
0-4 3 K I'm beginning to think his first 30 at bats were pure luck.
-
Sell high, buy low theory comes to mind. The Globe just had an article about why the Sox should trade Paxton.
-
Which playoff team contender has enough pitching but is in need of bats?
-
What would Texas give up to get Paxton?
-
I never realized he's very undisciplined at the plate. Very high strike out rate. I guess he can get on hot streaks. It baffles for me that now the team is insisting he play shortstop. I thought they liked him at 2B.
-
I can see the benfit of trading for a young arm with 2+ years of team control. But I''m not sure what we would have to give up. I just don't see Bloom making a DD type deals. ie emptying the farm.
-
Who would we get? What would it cost? I didn't think so.
-
Yep. No point in watching one year rentals.
-
I love watching Duval. 10 for 60 with .560 OPS in June. It sure beats watching Duran.
-
We created space for Wong and saved $30M. You don"t think that counts something?
-
Yes, the same f***ing Duran who went from 6-50 with 22Ks from May 19-June3. Duvall is a f***ing rental. Duran has chance to be a starter for long time. Duran is under team control for another five year. He has made tremendous strides this year. YOU CAN CHERRY PICK HIS STATS, but he has larger resume than Duvall this year. Close to 200PA. Of course I don't want to see repeat of May 19-June 3 from Duran. That's far different than Duvall.....pre injury and post injury. If you don't know the difference get the f*** out of my face.
-
If Fenway can't cure him then nothing will......I anxiously wait and see what he can do at home vs the Marlins.
-
How long are we going to let Duvall live off his first 33 at bats? We're trying to get into the playoffs and he's done nothing but to hurt the team by being non productive. AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB K BA 33 11 15 05 01 04 14 03 05 .444 45 04 06 01 02 01 03 05 20 .133 He needs to heat up soon......I rather watch Duran, or anyone else.
-
Very good.......my first laugh of the day. Lucky I wasn't drinking coffee.
-
For DH guys, it seems better comparison would be to isolate bWar for DH position only. But I guess the fact remains that there's a value in having a guy like Turner who can step out of DH spot and help out in the field. Especially the two positions occupied by lefties. We're all thinking (I think we are) that Yoshida may be more of a DH in couple of years. I'm sure Yoshida is NOT a bad athlete. But his vertical jump attempting to catch the ball over the left field fence was pretty pathetic. I bet Refs had much better chance of catching it.
