    Well, Sandy did his job. Now the lineup needs to support that effort.
  2. JoeBrady
    In a game with Sandy v Schlittler, at YS, down 1-0 after 5 is still okay. 3.2 IPs left to get to him or get to the BP.
  3. JoeBrady
    I liked mine better, even if it was wrong.
  4. JoeBrady
    While that's usually true, with this team, and in this season, I'm not sure anything means anything. I think we can beat anyone, and I think we can lose to anyone.
  5. JoeBrady
    If you demote an RP, then we have a 7-guy BP going into a 4 games in 3 days series. And they have to stay demoted for ten days. If Yordie Alvarez was coming back, you do what you have to do. For our guys. I wouldn't try to get too fancy.
  6. JoeBrady
    During my lifetime, our record against some dude named TBA is 0-117.
  7. JoeBrady
    I couldn't agree more. This is their team, for better or worse. That includes Whitlock, Slaten, Yoshida, and probably Mead (injured while playing). Even Crochet has to play his way back.
  8. JoeBrady
    We're an underdog the first three games, and maybe pick'em in game 4. We need 3-4, but my math side tells me 2-2 is a good result.
  9. JoeBrady
    And if he doesn't hit at 20:29, the RSN will blame Breslow or Duran.
  10. JoeBrady
    I think that's an urban legend. In his first try with us, he had a .613 OPS. The splits were: May-.756 OPS with a very high .436 BABIP June-.486 OPS with a low .188 BABIP If you looked at the discrete numbers: May -0- HRs with a 13/2 K/W June -0- HRs with an 8/7 K/W He actually played better in June, but didn't really hit well at any time at all.
  11. JoeBrady
    Everything is close. NYY runs scored = 596, RS = 600 NYY runs allowed = 496, RS = 499
  12. JoeBrady
    We need 5 IPs and 2 runs. If it's a game, we can throw our BP at them. If not, hoping we can dig into their BP. 4 games in three days should squeeze both teams.
  13. JoeBrady
    I like the IKF fit better. If he hits, good. But even if he doesn't, his glove will play.
  14. JoeBrady
    I'd like to know more about his attitude. Is he coming in thinking he'll be the last guy on the bench, or does he think vets are entitled to their old spot?
  15. JoeBrady
    That's what I had in mind. If he is on waivers, does the team need to add him to the 26, pending waivers claims (that will never happen)?
  16. JoeBrady
    It goes Schlittler (R), Rodon (L), Fried (L), and Warren (R). He's 0-3 v Rodon and 1-2 against Warren. Maybe bring him for Sunday's game?
  17. JoeBrady
    The type of waivers that the Reds had Suarez on, where you could pull him back if unclaimed.
  18. JoeBrady
    I was in a really bad slump on the local softball team. Got all sorts of useless advice. One guy, who had never said anything, was passing behind the batting cage just yells out 'if you don't keep your back foot planted, I'm going to nail into the ground'. That was it. My back foot was getting antsy. Felt great after that. On the brain cells, I'm more of the Duran/Bello model. When I was slumping, every pitch looked like a golf ball. I could hit one line drive, and suddenly, every pitch looked as big as a balloon. It's one of the things I love about BB. You can go from ice-cold to red-hot, without ever knowing the reason.
  19. JoeBrady
    Tonight's matchup makes me wince a bit, but winning 3-4 would put us in 2nd. Absolutely not getting ahead of myself, but that seemed almost impossible at one point.
  20. JoeBrady
    Nice article and stats. Makes me need more coffee this early. And yes, at this point, and maybe even if he flattens out a little, Gaspar should be on the playoff roster.
  21. JoeBrady
    Given their record over the past couple of months, and the fact that they lead the AL in run differential, and Py W/L, could one argue that they are the best team in the AL?
  22. JoeBrady
    What happens if the Red Sox put Story on waivers? Does that buy them any time?
  23. JoeBrady
    If/when Anthony comes up, I think he would have to replace White. I like White well enough, but an 8/1 K/W and no XBH in 25 ABs is a luxury we can't afford. Story only as my #27 guy in September, so I don't have demote anyone. And there is a chance he might be able to play at a reasonable level. I wouldn't expect it, but it also wouldn't cost us anyone. And I'd keep an eye out for IKF. If Story can't hit when he returns, IKF's glove might provide more value than Story's???
  24. JoeBrady
    I think that's a RSN singularity. How many of our fans wanted the manager or GM, or both, fired immediately after winning a WSC?
  25. JoeBrady
    Most players can play most positions, but I don't consider that real versatility. We could play Abreu, Duran, or Anthony in CF if we needed to. They probably wouldn't blow the game. But it is not something you want to do. Most 3Bs can play 2B, and most SS's can play 2nd or 3rd. When I think of versatility, I'm thinking more along the lines of shrugging my shoulders, not raising my eye brow.
