    Maybe I'm dead set on trading Kike for stingy reasons like wanting to see Duran play more for the SOX. Ya gotta admit he's an exciting player who looks like he belongs.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I think the Tigers' manager should give Baez a rest day tomorrow.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I think that you would agree the SOX could use at least one more good reliever. Bloom can either trade an established player like Kike or he can trade away some good prospects. You have to give up something to get something.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Only if you're referring to David 'Clutch' Ortiz.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    SOX defense has been damn impressive so far this season. That's an important part of the game that adds to the win column.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, do you remember Steve Pearce?
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I know, MOON, but this is 2022.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The benefit of trading Kike is the SOX could get a decent reliever for him. The SOX won't get anything for Arroyo.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The other option is to keep Kike and platoon him with Duran in CF and have Reffy platoon with JBJ in RF. Then Bloom could either trade or DFA Arroyo.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Plus the fact the SOX also have Reffy, who, if Cora so chooses, could platoon with Duran at lead-off. Kike is definitely tradable.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Duran's speed would make even not perfect bunts base hits. JBJ isn't in the same speed class as Duran. Speaking of Duran, if he continues to shine, Bloom would have a nice trading chip with Kike.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Great catchers right now in MLB are as rare as unicorns.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    To take more advantage of his great speed Duran has to lay down more bunts. Especially against LH's. Bunting is definitely a teachable part of the game. Too bad Remy is no longer with us; he was an excellent bunter and would have been a good teacher for Duran.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    deVAZtating! How can you not like this guy as our catcher?
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Two excellent defensive plays that inning. Story is the 2nd coming of Pedey at 2nd base.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    When you compare his RBI to his BA, that makes total sense. When you compare JD's and Bogey's RBI to their BA's, it makes no sense.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    When the SOX play Cleveland, it will be to their advantage to get some production from their 3 and 4 hitters.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Stay away from Fenway's version of the Bermuda Triangle.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I allowed Franchy's 3 hits last night to fool me tonight.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Miggy is definitely not ovah the Hill.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Millar is exactly right. What JBJ does defensively cannot be taught.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    NostraMOONus predicted it.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Well the SOX have Cy Old on the mound.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, two pitchers on the Astros each threw an immaculate inning in the same game against the Rangers on 6/15/22. Ist time it's ever been done.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    As far as approach at the plate Devers and Baez are mirror images of each other.
