  1. coaches in pro sports matter - especially in football (in my opinion). In baseball they matter the least... managers anyway. However I feel like managers can't do a lot to "win" the game from their power position - but they can "lose" the game from their positions a little bit more. If the sox keep winning - TLR will get credit... if deserved or not... it will come.
  2. I thought pinch hitting mercedes was a smart move.. though he should have hit madrigal after that. I've seen some improvement in the decisions - hope the trend continues.
  3. well.. pretty sure we will never see him there again..
  4. its a battle to see if we can overcome this bulllshit lineup. We are winning so far.. but wow,, just wow.
  5. If we need a lefty bat at #2... then let grandal DH the issue a lot of us have with these line-ups... people like Lamb need at bats for sure. But playing every back up player in the same line-up is silly.
  6. The last stat you mentioned is the reason.... OBP... plus there are other stats to consider.
  7. a lot of people hate Grandal.. but if everyone on our team had his eye.. we could avg 10 runs a game...
  8. 8 run lead.. come in and walk 2 guys in a row... get the fuck out of here please.
  9. Yeah... that's also why trading for a relief pitcher is so often a big risk. From one year to the next you never know. It's early though.. he could still be a weapon.
  10. Fixed it... figured I spelled it wrong But was being hounded by a toddler. Nice job being an ass honestly... love the grammar/spelling police.
  11. is he going to turn it around do we think? relief pitching is such a fickle business. So far he has been getting knocked around - he had a negative WAR last time I looked
  12. yeah too early to know.. but the giants being ahead of us made me laugh.
  13. yeah good try on that graphic.. but it's poorly designed.
  14. yeah id say two of those at least are a result of a manager who should be playing golf and pitch with his friends and not in a high pressure job.
  15. its early for sure... but a good sign thus far.
  16. you're only looking at it from the offensive end.. not the pitching/def end. FYI in the in the 2019 season 9 out 10... top run differential teams made the post season. I didn't even look at 2020 because short season but prob not much different.
  17. yermin needs to take some pitches... he is swinging at everything... that won't work
