  1. Astros do NOT have the best record in baseball.
  2. Phil Hughes getting loose. Now I feel better.
  3. So hitters hate 3-2 counts more than 0-2, 1-2 and 2-2 counts. Interesting (or B.S.).
  4. Astros have 3 of the top 6 guys in position player AL WAR. And #19 too.
  5. Bregman likes the same kind of pitches Dozier does.
  6. Brought a tear to my eye, and a gurgle in my stomach ;-)
  7. Just cause the shift didn't produce an out THAT time doesn't make it a bad move to do the shift. Jeez Louise. Lots of ridiculous coming out of the announcers' mouths today.
  8. 'The game has changed' Hey Torii, it's been a season and a half since you played.
  9. that's not a bad hop. that's a normal hop. play just wasn't made. don't make excuses for them.(that was to the announcers)
  10. Sing the praaises of veteran players Torii...
  11. Yup, better in the 2nd half. 60% winning% first half, 69% in the 2nd half.
  12. Dude, I was just messin' :-)
  13. Think about where the geniuses kept ranking Buxton ;-)
  14. Yeah, but you also said you hope we can pull off this kind of deal for Santana. That seems to imply the same kind of haul. Which would imply he's worth about the same. I must have completely misunderstood.
  15. Santana isn't worth close to what Quintana is worth. Quintana is better, much younger, cheaper and under control for longer. If anything, this should make some fans' expectations more realistic
  16. They should deal him regardless. Santana too. We already waited too long for Dozier.
  17. 'The run differential is very real but a little deceptive.' Well, it can be. Whether or not it is in the case I'm not sure. In any event, I normally use BaseRuns which has us worthy of a 38-50 record.
  18. Stewart has an ERA of 3.73, has more BB/9 than K/9 (that takes talent) and a WHIP over 1.500 in his 2nd trip through AA. News of his turning the corner are highly exaggerated.
  19. Without pitching, when will WE truly be very good? and at least the W Sox have a W Series win this century :-)
  20. Especially with how little he is getting paid in relation to the value he provides. He is very much underpaid by MLB standards. Between his immense talent and his contract, he was worth every bit of what the W Sox got (if not a bit more)
  21. While the person you responded to had a good point, which I agree with, this is a good point to (which I also agree with). Very good thing to point out, IMO.

  24. Of course there is, one only needs to look at the prospect rating for a certain fleet footed CF as a cautionary tale of counting too much on how well prospect rating translate to MLB performance. But it seems odd many people glorified the Twins former FO for the Twins high prospect rating when they had them and now want to give warnings and/or push aside the farm system the W Sox has assembled.
