  1. Houck has great composure on the mound. He may lose his control, but he never loses his cool.
  2. A Nolan Ryan type no-hitter. 9 walks, no hits, 13K's and a pitch count of close to 200.
  3. That was supposed to be a curve ball, but it didn't curve.
  4. That's no straw man in center for Cleveland.
  5. At this point Whitlock will be a starter next season and Houck will be valuable in the pen.
  6. HoUCK is really pressing his LUCK.
  7. If Aruaz is injured, Shaw has 2nd base experience.
  8. Dalbec is pulling the ball, which is a good thing.
  9. DEVERS DEliVERS! 24 and the best player on the team.
  10. If both Kike and Renfroe had been available, are you 100% positive that JD would have only been benched for 1 game?
  11. Is Whit Merrifield the most underrated player in MLB? During the 2018-19 seasons he had a 31 game hitting streak. This season he's stolen 33 bases in a row. He has now played in over 430 consecutive games. All of these are KC Royals' records. Also, this season he has 67 RBI from the lead-off spot, which is 2nd in MLB.
  12. No question about that. And he's been the best for a number of years.
  13. I just looked up what the O's are paying these two players. Each is at a little over 1/2 million/year, although Means is up for arbitration next season. I guess I can file that trade under 'the impossible dream.' The total team salary of the O's this season is around 54 million. Tampa's team salary is 70 million. SOX team salary is 182 million. Yankem team salary is 203 million. Dodgers team salary is 267 million. The A's team salary is 89 million. White Sox=141 million Astros=192 million. Giants=160 million.
  14. Been watching the O's/Rays game. The 4 best players on the O's have a last name that starts with the letter 'M.' Mullins, Mountcastle, Mancini, and Means. Two of those 'M's' I'd love to see on the SOX next season. Those two being Mountcastle(1st baseman) and Means(LH Starter). What does this thread think it would take for Bloom to make this possible? Or is it impossible?
  15. If my sarcasm is as subtle as a sledgehammer, how come I had to identify to you that my post "Cora does no wrong. It's in the bible" was sarcastic?
  16. Actually 'despite' and 'in spite of' are pretty much the same. 'In spite of' just has a little more flow.
  17. Because sarcasm seems to be so hard to identify here, from now on when I post in italics, that means sarcasm.
  18. I was being, wait for it, sarcastic.
  19. Cora can do no wrong. It's in the bible.
  20. Speaking of Curly Howard; I doubt even Curly would have brought in Perez.
  21. Personally, I like JD a lot more than A-Gon.
  22. I was a big fan of Curly Howard. Nothing could ruin the blades on a saw faster than Curly's head.
  23. Cleveland's Witt isn't as good as the SOX's Whit.
