  1. Devers wasn't the SOX everyday player who was snubbed for the ASG. That would be the guy who normally plays RF.
  2. Watching both Devers and Kike at this point in the season, I don't know what amazes me more; Devers' 69 RBI or Kike's 31 RBI?
  3. Rooker is a good ballplayer. Rooker and Sears are the diamonds in the rough.
  4. Especially since JBJ is no longer a SOX.
  5. Shouldn't Kike be doing POP-TARTS commercials?
  6. This season Devers has been a 'guess' hitter. He guesses the pitcher will throw the ball and then he guesses he'll swing at it no matter where it is.
  7. Holt was a Brock Star; Kike is a Pop Star.
  8. More pop-ups than VH-1 music videos in the '80's.
  9. Even the worst team has one player another team's GM would like to have. In the case of the A's that player is Sears.
  10. The A's offense reminds me of the Rangers. Forest Rangers.
  11. It helps to get thru the boring ASB.
  12. The throw from the A's RF was Dwight-like. Dwight Schrute.
  13. Sears(LH) vs T. Scott(RH) Ref Turner Devers Duvall(RF) Masa(DH) Alfaro Kike(CF) Arroyo Chang A sweep heading into the ASB would be a positive thing in so many ways. This game s/b the most competitive of the 3. Go SOX!
  14. Yup, Moon. I did correct my post after checking Duvall's salary, which would make him easier to trade.
  15. The 2018 SOX had the best record in MLB and won the WS. It doesn't get any better than that.
  16. I'm not worried about them, but they are a well-balanced baseball team. I'd love to worry about them, because that would mean the SOX would be playing them in the WS. I know, dream on. What the hell; stranger things have happened in sports.
  17. A team could go 162-0 and if they don't win the championship, it means nothing. Just need to ask the 2022-23 Boston Bruins.
  18. In fact, the Braves may even have a better team than the 2018 SOX. If they don't win the WS, it's all for naught.
  19. Just checked Duvall's salary which is 7 Mil. For some reason I believed it was higher, so, yes, they do have a choice.
  20. Tampa continues to lose, which I love. The Braves are scary; reminds me of the 2018 SOX.
  21. It may be his wrist, but I believe he's just not reading the pitches correctly, which is the hardest thing to adjust to after a long layoff. I guess we'll just have to stay tuned.
  22. He's been a proven power hitter. Let's see how he performs after the ASB. I imagine he'll be living in the batting cage during the break. I haven't given up on him yet. But you're correct; he hasn't been very good.
  23. If Duran was on one of the bad teams in MLB, he would probably play everyday and become more proficient against LH's. Much more complicated when playing on a PO contender. I don't know; maybe Bloom has him play winter ball and has him face as many LH's as possible. I'm sure most of us want Duran to become the everyday CF.
