    Give him time. Wr dont know his quirks yet. 2 fingers today.
  2. Michigan Adam2
    Rut hit 2 Homer's tonight...so not all is lost.
  3. Michigan Adam2
    Way way to many chances to even try to get replacement level. If not for the injuries to mada and even more so Anthony and Duran would have played at least half less ab , and more likely 2/3 less. He just has played very poorly. At least Durbin has gotten over his very slow start to become consistently playable.
  4. Michigan Adam2
    Duran's problem is probably a lot of players problem. Trying way too hard to hit more Homer's. His strengths point to a 400 obp with 750 -800 ops and have a lot of sb, 2b, 3b, and only 10-12 Homer's. 100-120 runs. A top 2 hitter. Instead he has a few more Homer's, but is basically unplayable. Put it this way. If you merged masa contact ability with Duran's speed you'd have the perfect Duran.

    Curran should feel very lucky. To get as many ab's as he has and played this poorly is flukey. There is really only one thing Curran has done well this year, and that is clutch hitting. He has certainly made the most of the few hits and on base chances he has had. Last night's GS is a perfect example. For a guy with a 267 obp to have as many hr, rbi and sb as he has is pretty impressive. When/if Anthony y, masa, and mead return ready to go durran shouldn't see the lineup.
  6. Michigan Adam2
    Rut is 3 for 22 and still has a much higher obp than durran
  7. Michigan Adam2
    We can dream about the roster if all the IL players were back...it probably won't happen, but mead, Anthony, and crochet and at least 1 other starter would be pretty amazing to have back...
  8. Michigan Adam2
    Those are outstanding if their avg, so so if it's obp, or slg, and horrific if it's ops. I bet later.
  9. Michigan Adam2
    I think lindor is a negative value player. Six should be able to trade similar negative value player(s) for him.
  10. Michigan Adam2
    Hands are a little different. There are few muscles in the hand. Tendon for ring finger joins the muscle in the forearm, so ring finger tendon might be sore in wrist area.
  11. Michigan Adam2
    It would have to be primarily for other bad contracts for me. Story and Yoshida for lindor? Durran in there?
  12. Michigan Adam2
    What about an out of the box thought and play wiltin at c/ dh/ 1b, and find a 1b out on the market. Much easier to find a power rh bat on a non contender there...
  13. Michigan Adam2
    Still weird they have so many historically successful players hit so poorly to start the year. Anthony, story, Durbin, durran...and then mayer as well. All of them will eventually return to their averages right?
  14. Michigan Adam2
    I'm surprised total bases is not a more popular stat. It factors in hits, extra base hits. Maybe create a new stat that adds sb, walks, and hbp to total bases and call it ultimate bases. A very comprehensive offensive stat that factors in most of the significant factors like obo, slg, and a pretty big one...games played. The best ability is availability....
  15. Michigan Adam2
    Those are al east champ numbers. Those HR totals were even over mine, and I thought I was being aggressive. Those are we don't need to go get anyone at the deadline numbers.
  16. Michigan Adam2
    93 wins and 1st in al east. Pitching and defense wins championships, and Sox have them. They go get a big hitter before deadline. Obviously they have very few injuries to achieve this.
  17. Michigan Adam2
    Who said no interleague play? The 4 divisions is simply record comparison for playoffs/no playoffs. There should easily be a NFL style inter league rotation to change things up.
  18. Michigan Adam2
    I think I keep the 2 leagues to help spread that out. Maybe 4 8 team divisions, with 2 in NL and 2 in AL. That makes for the natural WS between the leagues, plus allows for the NYY, and NYM split up to separate the close teams. Cww, cle, Detroit, rs, NYy, Baltimore, tor, tpa in al east, kc, minn, lv, hou, laa, sea, tex +1 exp in all west. Cinn, Pitt, chic, nym, atl, Mia, phi, wash in nl east, stl, mil, cubs, ari, col, Dodgers, sdp, sfg, plus Utah in nl west. Pretty simple split roughly at the Mississippi, with only mil and cubs even close to any of the east teams, and that is white Sox in the other league.

    I am predicting a trade of one of the 5 OF's ( including masa) before the trade deadline to plug a hole from poor play/injury. Just too much surplus with too much depth in the system to not find a better fit with similar talent.
  20. Michigan Adam2
    They also said Devers was their third basement. Situations change. Versatility is a positive team friendly trait.
  21. Michigan Adam2
    Yes because we still have more than enough ammunition to go get someone when we define what/where we need them, and other teams are more ready to give up or fill their glaring hole. In season pick ups and/ or the ammunition to get them is part of our current status.
  22. Michigan Adam2
    And how would you have played all. To pay for them all they would have traded several players, probably including crochet. The people who just say overpay to get this player or that, then complain when you are stuck with players like panda and masa that can't be traded. You can't have it both ways. I like the Sox efforts so far this off-season. I think they still need 1cmore offensive player via trade, but they can probably wait until closer to the deadline to confirm what/where they need the help, and which other teams are out if it or have surplus/ needs that match up with the sox.
  23. Michigan Adam2
    I could see this as a year where they have 8 guys hit 15, 6 of them hit 20, 3 hit 25, and 1 hit 30. With top of the league pitching. And a super D I think it's enough IF...big IF...they get on base enough.
  24. Michigan Adam2
    We can never lose if we dont give up any runs vs we can never win if we dont score year. Should be fun. I suspect we can surely be buyers before deadline if we have a weak link, either one we suspect now, or one that pops up by then. More than one are probably unlikely.
  25. Michigan Adam2
    Do we change focus to a trade for a catcher? One of the bigger weaknesses id say assuming Durbin and Mayer have 2nd and 3rd locked up. It's either that or bullpen right? Still need to trade of extra body.
