  1. Nope. Just stating past history.
  2. Crochet is already up to 82 innings, and on pace for 200+, which would be way past where he’s been before.
  3. Bregman being out gives Story a longer leash IMO, and especially he’s not the only one with slumber in his lumber at the moment either.
  4. If Story heats up great, but even if he doesn’t I don’t think he’s in any danger of losing his job, or going anywhere despite all the praise and support he gets on here. Cora is pretty loyal to his players, and what gets wished for, suggested, or predicted on here doesn’t usually correlate with what Cora does.
  5. You are like the groundhog who only comes out of his hole on a special occasion to predict the weather. You only come out from behind the curtain when the conditions are Favorable to post the standings. 🤭🤔
  6. Good, and much needed win today. Good also to see everyones favorite SS today not named Mayer have a good game.
  7. You guys are making this way to complicated yourselves. Lineup construction to me is the sole reason Anthony is still at Woo, and nothing to do with money.
  8. Batting 4th has been a black hole all year. The New Johnny Bench isn’t playing today, so Toro, Toro, Toro gets a tryout 4th today. No KC at 1B today, which was rumored, but still pretty much a ST lineup.
  9. I agree with this, and I still think the brain trust of the Red Sox Cora, and Brez may be in disagreement on how to work Anthony in the lineup FT.
  10. Brez the Prez explained all this. Said he didn’t want to bring Anthony up, and put the pressure on him in a losing situation. I guess it didn’t matter with Mayer, and KC.
  11. How about a wildcard standings update that you’ve have been slacking off on lately.🤫 2 teams. -6 games 1 team. - 5 games 3 teams. -4 games 2 teams. - 1 game All in the loss colum. Do all your stats tell you this? The eye test does.🤔
  12. How about a Div standings update that you’ve slacked off on lately.🤫 Yankees. -10 games Toronto-Tampa. -4 games Baltimore (last place) + 4 games all in the loss column. does all your stats tell you this? The eye test does.🤔
  13. You keep calling this a minor issue, but you have regurgitated on this for many post now. You don’t think if Cora thought Raffy had more chances batting 4th to get RBI that he wouldn’t move him there? Obviously you don’t, because to you Cora is not educated enough. You just don’t see it, because you are so hung up on general studies, and science that Cora is giving you the answer that Raffy is getting more chances at RBI batting 2nd, and that’s why he’s keeping him there, and that’s why I don’t have to answer one of your questions, because Cora has answered for me. That’s your REAL ANSWER like it, or not.MSNS 🤭🙈
  14. That’s where the eye test can come in just like with Crochet this year. The eye test is very telling on how Crochet has pitched this. Better than all the stats out there to your disposal.
  15. Like I said you keep thinking your disagreement is with me, but it’s really with Cora who is the one to continue to bat Raffy 2nd while IGNORING your General facts, and General data, and I guess you are also saying Cora is not educated enough to make a decision like you would on an educated guess.MSNS.
  16. You have to remember that the mere mention of a pitchers W-L record is a strike against you in the first place, and it sets off all the bells, and whistles. Very predictable, and very accurate with what’s to follow.
  17. Like you said it’s IMPOSSIBLE to know for sure, so all you are going on is assuming. That’s a fact. Abreu has a .267 in the 3 hole, and a .188 in the 4 hole, so you assume that will translate to being better. Why don’t you ask Cora why he’s not following your science, and batting Raffy 4th instead of 2nd, because that’s the one you must really have the problem with. He’s the one making the decisions. MSNS.
  18. He wrote the book of over analyzing 101, and how to get your analysis wrong. MSNS.
  19. How many times do you want to be wrong? I have never said wins are a major stat in evaluating how good a SP is. I have repeatedly said it’s the first thing I look at, and then go from there.MSNS.
  20. I agree on that. Like I’ve stated in the past that starting pitchers used to be as big a star as the sluggers, but the game today has turned into a whole different game with how things are analyzed.
  21. I agree with what you say, but in every game someone will get a W, and someone will get an L. Same for the two teams playing..
  22. Once again over analyzing, and wrong once again. It’s already been pointed out that the 6-6 record is more indicative of of his teammates, and lack of offense., but as usual, and predictable you go off on a whole different tangent to fit a narrative you want to pursue. You, and your imaginary friend the Straw Man, are quite a team, but what do you expect from the Man Behind The Curtain. MSNS.
  23. And the team has a 6-6 record when he pitches. Can’t change that either.
