  1. No matter what happens today, Tyler, you can go to sleep knowing that upon wakening July 31, your Boston Red Sox will still be in 1st FREAKIN' place in the AL East
  2. With the OF'ers that have gone through Fenway over the last 50 years, spending time thinking about Cordero as part of a longer term game plan is laughable to me. The stats are a good evaluation tool, but combine it with some eyeball observations to see the inherent skill levels and adjustments to the situation they are hitting in.
  3. I'm with you ,SS. I still play catch with my grandson using a 1Bman glove Pete Runnels gave to me in 1964, when he wass a member of the Houston Colt .45s, along with Nellie Fox, eddie Casco, Hal Brown, walter Bonds, Rusty Staub, Jerry Grote, Walt Williams, John Bateman and Jimmy Wynn.
  4. So what is Bloom's defense in trading for a corner outfielder on the IL ? I'm guessing it is not his last deal of the day and the master plan will become clear.
  5. D, my only disagreement is that it is not really a good team , as currently rostered. It is a team that has won despite mediocre starting pitching but a good BP performance , though only about 3 or 4 guys there.
  6. As in, I'll pay you to take them, Mr GM
  7. Bloom says he's interested in what is going on around MLB
  8. Was driving from Las Vegas to Temecula and following this POS game via my phone. I sincerely hope for Erod's sake that his problems with pitching aren't related to after effects or Long Covid. If not then he truly does suck and will not cash big in his FA opportunity . Too bad for him On the other hand , I don't really care how good Ryu is, this team is in a slump through its core hitters and the other 3 may never be successful MLB'ers . We can only hope that the pigsty Trop wakes them all up. Still amazing they have hung on this long in first, but looking tired.
  9. Barnes sequence against Grichuk showed signs of excellence, good for him
  10. You guys know me enough to realize that I am not a Matt Barnes fan ( save the stats, I can read them, but still not a fan). I think he is a thrower, not pitcher, and loves to put the leadoff guy on base
  11. There's the answer... Put Dalbec at 3rd , otherwise he would never have seen it live
  12. Where is Swihart when you need him (not his Ghost ), Lavarnway, Middlebrooks and a host of others who came up but found MLB pitching to be harmful to their financial futures
  13. Dalbec cannot catch up to the fastball, and far worse cannot recognize the pitch that winds up in the dirt. Pretty sad situation, leaving Sox with limited options
  14. I can't rank his catching and game calling skills, but Plawecki gives you good AB's and is almost at .300/.750
  15. Otto, Duran, Josh Smith and Hauver , maybe more players going either way
  16. 14 pitches, nobody out , then the 15th gets 2, way to go Whitlock
  17. No way Houck was coming back out. Cora shorts his stellar starters . Maybe in a 7 inning game, it should take 4 to qualify for the win
  18. JDM has become disappointing and should be traded immediately before the 5th inning
  19. Now Cora needs Whitlock, O and Barnes to do their jobs and put Blue Jays back in their place, which is behind us. Meanwhile score some more
  20. That was spectacular and shows why speed counts. Watching Plawecki plow his way around dragging the anchor and Duran just about caught him
  21. Dalbec gets f***ed by blue. That was a good take
