    The one problem is that Kike enjoys batting leadoff and Dugo doesn't. Dugo has already made Cora aware that he doesn't want to bat lead-off.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. But, the fact remains that both Kike and Renfroe have been very good acquisitions at a bargain price(based on what's being paid to players nowadays.)
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Hunter and Kike were relatively inexpensive pickups by Bloom. Kike is making 14 million over 2 years and Hunter is on one year 3.1 million dollar contract. Unfortunately, Bloom wasn't so lucky with Richards, who got a one year 10 million dollar contract. The only good thing about Richards' contract is that it's only for one year.

    The only time I'm shocked about E-rod's pitch count is when he doesn't have 90+ pitches after 5. But at least tonight he didn't have crooked number runs to go along with it.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    One could argue that Ted Williams was a two tool player. But, what two tools they were.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Of the 5 tools speed is something you either have or don't have. It can't be a work in progress.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He has the potential to have all the tools. His speed, his arm, and his fielding are 3 tools he has proven.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That opposite field HR by Duran proved one thing; he is strong.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Kike is making 3 million dollars less this season than Richards.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Ted Williams once said that he never argued with an ump about a strike/ball call; he would just glance at them and they knew they were wrong.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That was outside, but it doesn't matter because there is no strike zone anymore.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    E-rod in his career 7 starts against the Tigers is 4-1 with an ERA under 3. So this is the team he owns.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Bats will usually break when the ball is hit on the handle.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Duran: "No mas."
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Innings or minutes?
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Best wishes to Jerry. He's a great guy and perhaps the first SOX Dirt Dog.

    A walk in Central Park even w/o a money bag is dangerous. But I agree, not all walks in the park are the same.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    So, what you're saying is that Schwarber is going nowhere fast?
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    C.Mize has an ERA of 3.41 and a WHIP of 1.11. Doesn't seem like a walk in the park to me.

    This game thread will be available at the end of September. Then we'll see if the pessimists were right or if the optimists were right.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The word 'good' doesn't correlate with the 4 weaknesses. The 'weak hitting' could be temporary, but the other 3 are not.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    In the words of Dandy Don: "The party's over."
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I noticed Bobby Dee is growing some facial hair. Either to change his luck or to hide his identity.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The pathetic train left the station a while ago; this is something worse.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Whatever floats your boat.
