    You use fWAR, and I’ll use HR, RBI, and TB things that actually show up on the scoreboard like what Alonso did last night. HR, and 2 RBI = difference in the ballgame. Different wants, and different needs.
  2. Old Red
    I’m not faulting Con Man for anything. I’m just saying that up to now in their career stats that Con Man is not in the same category as Alonso when it comes to power numbers HR, RBI, and TB. Con Man as I’ve said before was a settle instead of Alonso.
  3. Old Red
    I have nothing against the Con Man, but Alonso is getting warmer, and has gone ahead in HR, and RBI. I’ll take it. Con Man is only there, because he came cheaper for a shorter period of time.

    I know many like rankings, and projections, but I think they’re pretty useless. Progress might not be linear, but with 2 more K’S for KC last night, and as they pile up I wouldn’t call that much progress¡ or development.
  5. Old Red
    Plain, and simple KC is 39-167 .234 with 2 HR, and 19 RBI not to mention 63 K’S. Just for May KC was 12-64 with 1 HR, and 6 RBI to go along with 29 K’S.

    I said before the season started that providing both the Con Man, and Alonso stayed healthy that Alonso would put up better numbers than the Con Man just like he always has, and I see nothing to change that opinion now.

    There may be higher hopes for Campbell, and Mayer, but I think some of the luster has come off both the last two years from what it was prior.

    Another lackluster performance from the Red Sox at Fenway last night, and now stand at 9-20 at the not so friendly Fenway to go along with being 9 games under 500 on the season. That 9 games under 500 seems so far away at the moment to get back to let alone going over it.

    29 K’S in 64 AB isn’t exactly hitting much at all.

    I hope someone warns Iceland.🤭

    KC down to .239. 12-64 in May with 1 HR 6 RBI, and 29 K’S. Highly SUSPECT.🤫

    Ah The Man Behind The Curtain speaking from Years of experience.🤔

    Seems like 1 poster on here this past offseason wondered how the heavy workload for the first time last year would affect this season. I guess we found out.🤔

    Not funny at all. Theo wasn’t all Geek, and Nerd. He actually talked to people.🙈
  15. Old Red
    Geeks, and nerds.🤭🙈🤮

    I like to go day to day myself, because they all count, and add up. If the Red Sox win on opening day they are 1-0, and if they lose they are 0-1. If a player hits 2 homers on opening day then great, but if he goes 0-4 with 4 K’S then he sucks. They all count, and they all add up, and then you see where you stand at the end, and how things add up. Nothing is to early though, or to short.
  17. Old Red
    Con Man is tied with Raffy, and Alonso for TB.
  18. Old Red
    Agree, and some on here just don’t comprehend that fans analyze the here, and now. Stats start counting in March just as the W-L starts counting in March. Stats in March-April go into making the winning, and losing in March-April, which counts the same as any other time of the season. Nothing is to early IMO.
  19. Old Red
    On the road again. I just can’t wait to get on the road again. Well it’s back to the not so friendly Fenway Park, and the battle for supremacy for fourth place place in the division. Still 8 games under 500 though, so Fenway will probably not be whipped to a frenzy watching two losing teams go at it.
  20. Old Red
    And you say you watch every game, and you still come to a lot of Wrong conclusions, so what’s your excuse?if It was widely reported then I guess it was more than just highlights, and box scores.🙈
  21. Old Red
    Yes playing bad D that led to early losses, which all counts, and catching everything in sight now doesn’t change that.
  22. Old Red
    It’s by default. He’s the only one I trust on here.🤫
  23. Old Red
    Is that what you are calling MVP?🤔
  24. Old Red
    I agree. Give Con Man a B, and RAF Man a C+. RAF Man has not been as good in CF this year.
  25. Old Red
    The Great Gasper on the bench today.🤭
