  1. The only SS controversy between Bogey, and Story seems to be on here.
  2. Yes the guys swinging the bats are the biggest problem, but to try to go through a season with a closer by committee is just asking for trouble, and makes very little sense when you have someone like Whitlock to fill that role.
  3. Luckily the C’S are on at 1:00 tomorrow. LETS GO CELTICS!
  4. And I keep asking the same question.Would the Red Sox have a better record right now if Whitlock was the closer? I say yes.
  5. Whitlock would have come in when Barnes got 2 outs in the 8th with a base runner on base. It’s not that complicated, but only to Cora.
  6. Whitlock should be the closer. Whitlock should be the closer. Whitlock should be the closer. Come on man!
  7. Evol deserved better fate, but Cora deserved this loss, and I blame him, and I’ll keep saying it all year long when the Red Sox blow the lead, and lose the game by someone in the closer situation not named Whitlock. Whitlock should be the CLOSER.
  8. Don’t blame Barnes, because he shouldn’t have been in the game at that point. That’s on Cora.
  9. Even when the Sox hit the ball hard, which is few, afar between it’s right at someone.
  10. As of right now Duran is hitting 391.
  11. Are you trying to convince you, or me? It certainly doesn’t convince me, but toot your horn all you want. I got earplugs in.
  12. You’re the only one out on a limb in the only tree in the forest, so there is nothing to answer to.
  13. Once again . BAZINGA! It’s certainly doesn’t make it true, because you say so being one of a kind, or not.
  14. You have your wild theories, which is your right, and your opinion, and I’ll just stick to baseball being baseball theory, and opinion.
  15. If Bill Lee hadn’t hung one to Tony Perez, or Joe Morgan hadn’t of blooped one into CF in the seventh game of the 1975 WS the Sox could have won that one too, but he did, and he did, and that’s baseball. Not metrics.
  16. Sand pile is better than the kitty litter you sit in, but no I have NEVER heard the Red Sox have won, or haven’t won WS, because of the Metrics.
  17. I love it when a plan comes together intentionally, or not. BAZINGA! One thing I learned early on was how some analyze every word on here just to pounce, and say I gotcha, so once again BAZINGA.
  18. I know to you it only matters what you think, but that doesn’t carry anymore weight than my opinion. My opinion about Gibson was only about 67, and nothing else, and I know I’m not the only one in thinking that. You’re right, and I have said metrics are to me only good on paper you would use in the bathroom. And with Buckner you have no clue, because the game was NOT TIED when the ball went through his legs. How come you are the only one I have EVER heard with your theory on why the Red Sox have won, or haven’t won WS Titles??
  19. A blind squirrel could tell you JBJ can’t hit
  20. What has this got to do with the subject at hand. You already knew the question had been changed before you gave your answer.
  21. I don’t think those 4 rings the Red Sox have won since 04 have anything to do with stats, and I don’t think the reason the Red Sox didn’t win has anything to to with your stats either. We’ve already gone over this. Bob Gibson was a big reason the Sox didn’t win in 67, and Grand Pa Buckner’s creaky legs was a big reason they didn’t win either, but if you really want to stick to your belief that metrics was the reason the Sox won, or didn’t win then good for you, because in all these years I’ve been a Red Sox fan I haven’t heard that anyone else spout that same theory, so good for you. Some people will believe anything. Come on man!
  22. It’s just hilarious to me that so many like that kind of soup, and can’t survive without it.
  23. But what does the eye test tell you?
  24. I like JBJ, but I gave up on him being a good hitter, but you can hang to your hope all you want, but I don’t think this Bloom deal will do anything more than wilt on the vine.
  25. What does the eye test tell you? Do you really need any kind of metrics?
