  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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..
  4. 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.
  5. And the team has a 6-6 record when he pitches. Can’t change that either.
  6. You regurgitated all these numbers, but you didn’t come up with any actual figures. You could figure out how many runners have been on base when Raffy has come up batting 2nd, but you can’t come up with a figure of how many runners would have been on base if Raffy has batted 4th, because you would have to take out the amount of times Raffy has been on base batting 2nd, so you have proven Nothing. How many fans do you think on a nightly basis watching at Fenway, or on NESN are thinking let alone saying, because of studies, and science show Raffy should bat 4th? Most likely they are just saying Raffy leads all of MLB in RBI. Why does the Yankees bat Judge 2nd most of the time? They must be bad at science too. MSNS.👋
  7. Show me the science, and studies for right now, and this year that shows that Raffy would have had more RBI opportunities in the 4th hole than he’s had in the 2nd hole. You can’t, because Raffy batting from the 2nd hole, and his .413 OBP you would have to take out for the opportunities that the 4th hole has had this year. How would your science explain that one away? It seems the Yankees don’t use your science, and studies either as Judge bats in the 2 hole more than anywhere else. As always MSNS.
  8. It’s not funny at all, but just plain common sense especially when Raffy is leading all of MLB in RBI with 52 all from the 2nd spot. MSNS🤭🙈.
  9. The team most importantly 6-6 when Cro Man pitches, and not even 500 when he doesn’t, so I would say the Team is less than mediocre.
  10. I was talking about teams W-L record, and not an individual.
  11. Since I fully back Cora on Raffy not playing 1B, and since I back Cora in Raffy batting 2nd once again your Moonsense=Nonsense.
  12. As I’ve said many times the most important stats are the ones that actually show up on the scoreboard, which in turn translates to W-L.
  13. Are you calling Cora simple minded? This must be another in a long line of you saying I don’t agree with Cora, but I don’t think he’s wrong things.
  14. New slogan. Moonsense= Nonsense.👏👍
  15. As Michael Felger has said many times that the Geeks, and Nerds have taken over sports, and I also understand that many, want, and need all the info they can get. I also understand that studies, and science in general may show that the #4 slot may get more RBI chances than the #2 slot, but all I care about is what’s happening with the Red Sox right now this year, and I don’t think that Raffy batting in the two hole with his 50 RBI is in the top 100 list of problems with the Red Sox that need changing even for the sake of science.
  16. Cora once again said he doesn’t want Raffy in the field, and he made that clear again today, which has a better chance of keeping him healthy, so it’s not as cut, and dry as you all make it out to be.
  17. Like I said you are just going by science, and studies in general instead of what’s actually happening, and what’s actually happening is Raffy currently has 50 RBI, which is 1 RBI behind the leader. No i don’t know how many RBI chances there have been for each slot so far, but it really wouldn’t matter in this discussion anyway since Raffy has been on base plenty with all his walks batting in the two hole along with his 50 RBI. I guess to you if it ain’t broke fix it anyway. Sounds kind of geeky, and nerdy to me all in the name of science.🙈🤭🤮
  18. Prospect one day, and suspect the next. Every day is a different day, which comes with highs, and lows. Are you happy with KC now?
  19. Are you talking about your science, and studies in general, or are you talking about the Red Sox THIS YEAR? I’m only talking about the Red Sox this year.🤭🙈
  20. Anthony has NO complaints. Brez has already explained that they don’t want to put the pressure on Anthony right now bringing him up in a losing situation. Brez The Prez.🤫
  21. Cora would have held that position on Story even if Bregman hadn’t been signed, and Raffy was the 3B IMO. It’s amazing how many things Raffy’s getting blamed for.
  22. Shaugnessy said yesterday he wasn’t going to going to have a talk with Cora. Cora also stated something to the likes that the Red Sox are solid enough at 1B with Sogard, and Toro, and Romy was coming back next week not to mention KC also gets a tryout. Also said he wants to keep Raffy healthy. Appears to me that Raffy won’t be donning a 1B glove anytime soon much to the chagrin of all of Devers Forevers loyal followers who have been offering all kinds of encouragement, and well wishes.👍
  23. So Devers is 2nd in all of MLB with 50 RBI, which is 1 RBI behind the leader all batting from the number 2 hole, and you want to move him to the 4 slot? Is he going to get more RBI chances batting 4th? That may make Moonsense, but nonsense to me. Besides the Red Sox have the new Johnny Bench batting 4th now. Gold Rush?🤭
  24. Cora has just said that Story is a SS, and won’t be changing positions.
