    Good time to look for a 2B/3B whose slugging outweighs his glove deficiencies.
  2. JoeBrady
    The only mention of Harrison was that he was one of the 'peanuts' that we got back for Devers.
  3. JoeBrady
    I meant play multiple positions on a regular or even semi-regular basis.
  4. JoeBrady
    I'm not sure anyone ever comes into MLB with the idea that he was going to be a fulltime DH. There is always an attempt to start prospects at a regular position. There are a ton of players that come in without a glove and become proficient at their position.
  5. JoeBrady
    The answer is: 1-Sometimes players play thru injuries and do okay. This isn't magic where we know exactly what will happen with an injury. 2-We lack any elegant solutions. It's not like we were going to be much better off having Monasterio at SS. 3-If Story sat down, half the fans would've accused him of sitting down with a boo-boo.
  6. JoeBrady
    Why do you assume that trainers can just fix guys, or prevent injuries? Players get injured every year.
  7. JoeBrady
    How do you know he didn't put his hand up? Lots of guys, maybe even most guys, get nicked up occasionally. Most likely, the trainers and/or manager, and/or GM, ask if they can play. If the player says yes, on we go.
  8. JoeBrady
    I see very few teams change guys positions. There are always some fringy guys that get moved around, but that's their role. Most regulars have a position and they don't deviate.

    I understand childhood baseball trauma. But 20+ years of winning WSCs should've cured people of that.

    You cannot take Fred seriously. You just can't.

    1-There is no doubt that there are plenty of RS fans unhappy with our record. 2-There is no doubt that henry and the FO are aware of this. 3-There is no doubt that the FO gives 2 seconds of thought about what the average fan thinks are the best moves. Just think about all the suggestions we've seen in here. We would have Bregman, Alonso, Marte, and Bichette, instead of Durbin, Contreras, Suarez and Gray. We'd be on the hook for a billion $$$ worth of contracts and have a worse record than we do now. Now I have to go and send my SpaceX suggestions to Elon Musk.
  12. JoeBrady
    As you mentioned above, those are currently pretty bad contracts. If either of those guys were FAs, how much would you offer for them?
  13. JoeBrady
    Fred called the 2007 RS the biggest chokers in history. No one is going to take him seriously,
  14. JoeBrady
    IMHO, there are always no shortages of trade targets. The issue is that other GMs know we are desperate, and won't mind holding out their best targets until the trade deadline. At most, Chapman is $45M/3 and Adames maybe $100M/4. SF would owe us maybe $150M. And I find it hard to believe that their GM (or any) would admit to that level of mistakes. They should, but that's unusual.
  15. JoeBrady
    90% of the FA talk centered on Bregman and Alonso, and #3 might've been Eugenio Suarez. 90% of the trade talk centered on Marte and Paredes. Almost any combination of those 5 players, even in retrospect, figures to be a disaster. But I'd still pursue Paredes.
  16. JoeBrady
    Our entire rotation, even without Crochet, is on a roll.
  17. JoeBrady
    If it helps. I'm sure that SF and the Cubs would pay for the Uber to send them back to Boston.
  18. JoeBrady
    As in, 'my answer could not possibly have been more wrong?' Without admitting any wrong-doing on my part, sure. ed-This is what happens when answers too quickly.
  19. JoeBrady
    Sadly, you wouldn't even be remotely close.
  20. JoeBrady
    That's not so much weird as hanging-upsidedown batschitt crazy. I've seen players become lackadaisical, I've never seen a player, at any level, ever give up an at-bat, even when they were warming up in batting practice. Even pitchers want to take their hacks.
  21. JoeBrady
    It's good, but it's not close. Anthony's good grades are Yordan's bad grades, and I don't mean that as a slight.
  22. JoeBrady
    That was me. And Fangraphs.
  23. JoeBrady
    Giants. The Giant players have a better chance of coming back, imho.
  24. JoeBrady
    Not worried. Last year, it was Mayer, before that, it was Story. Before that, it was Sale. And I probably missed a few guys.
  25. JoeBrady
    Probably has something to do with them bot wanting risk a re-occurrence of the injury, had allowed a lineout and a single, and had righties coming up.
