  1. I hope you have some cheese with all that WHINE. To all my buddies especially Moon who’s head I must live in, because I don’t go a day without being mentioned in one of his articles, and some times it’s article to article, and believe me Moon’s head is not where anyone wants to be, but I’m going out, and chase whales around for a couple of days, so keep an eye on things for me, and I’ll see you when I get back. Hopefully the Sox can salvage the rest of this series. As usual as Mick Foley would say Have a Good Day.
  2. Oh no since Sunday the sky is falling again. Fire sale must be next.
  3. At times they do play like a little league team.
  4. Bloom has been trying to piece together a 1B for 2 years with parts that weren’t made for a 1B.
  5. He just left stage right.
  6. Downs looks like he has a pretty good stroke. He had been pounding out the HR before he was called up.
  7. It’s not they way I saw it. You used your own eye test. Two completely different test. Mine works yours obviously doesn’t.
  8. Sale vs Cole on Sunday? They are both pitching tonight.
  9. Love that small ball.
  10. JD was in the original lineup, but is out with soreness from I guess running around the bases.
  11. Tell the whole story that it’s not just the use of the old standard BA, RBI, and HR, but digging deeper to see what they really mean like Schwarber, and his 28 HR would probably have more RBI if he batted down lower in the order, and same with Mookie, so there is more to it than just scratching the surface, and no it’s not only my stats matter, but that I don’t need all your stats to know what’s going on that for some reason is something you don’t like, or understand. It’s NOT, or has anything to do with not liking all the stats that you do,so I don’t know where you got the idea i don’t like them. I just don’t need them. Nothing wrong with how I do it, and nothing wrong with how you do it. I do use OBP though.
  12. Nothing to do with vision problems, but the need for analytics to know what’s going on. 20-20 vision is no good if you don’t use it.
  13. Raffy still out tonight.
  14. True Blue, and I don’t blame Arroyo either when he tries to play RF. All on Bloom to me.
  15. Your eyes must not be very good to need all kinds of stats to know what’s going on.
  16. I’m not agreeing with you that Cora is a IDIOT, nor have I called him one. Moon said I hated Cora, and that wasn’t true either, so on both counts FAKE NEWS. You two are quite a twosome making stuff up.
  17. My mistake. Call Bloom and tell him to make the trade. I’m in.
  18. If any stats out there show Franchy is a good to adequate 1B then I think you need some new stats. You sure you’re not seeing visions of George Scott playing 1B when you are watch Franchy? The good ole eye test still shows true.
  19. How about one who can catch the dam ball.
  20. Well we’ll have to disagree that 1B isn’t a big need on this club. The pitching hopefully just needs to get healthy, but the only cure to fix 1B is to get a good 1B.
  21. You’ve given the same speel about Whitlock many times over, which we disagree on. Everyone has to start somewhere to be a closer rather it’s Pap, or Barnes, or Eck, or Smoltz just to name a few not named Houck. Whitlock would not have been in the rotation if Frail hadn’t gotten hurt, and only then when Houck wasn’t vaxed the first trip into Toronto. Once again your exaggerated account by saying Whitlock being the closer from day 1 would have turned the season around, because no one said that, but I still say the Red Sox would have more wins from blowing those late leads early in the season.
  22. Never said Cora invented either, and the biggest thing I blame Cora for was to figure out the backend of the BP well before game 50+, or so.
  23. It’s not a question of who’s the best hitter, but that Rizzo is a good 1B, which Franchy Strange Glove, and Bobby Strange Glove are not, and that is a big need of the Red Sox at the moment.
  24. Two bad inventions. Openers, and piggybackers.
  25. Rizzo is not only a real 1B, but a good one at that. I think the Yankees swooped in, and took Rizzo right out from underneath Bloom’s nose, and he took Schwarber who was leftover.
