  1. For this line out double play will they double off Taylor or Happ
  2. Hey so, maybe that whole 15 inning sample or whatever wasn’t indicative of us getting a shutdown reliever
  3. This ump is more than happy to give the Sox pitchers four inches above the zone but god forbid we miss the corner by a seam
  4. Everyone’s got their one belief that’s not really backed by any statistical evidence, and mine is that making short relievers sit on the bench between innings, likely through the other teams pitching changes, and then sending them back out there is a recipe for disaster. which is all to say that was a dumb walk
  5. If the Sox are trying to avoid 3 appearances in 4 days, they’re down Taylor, newcomb, Hudson, and brazoban, which are 4 of the top 5 relievers listed by FG
  6. Just when I thought baseball couldn’t get any dumber, it goes and does something like that
  7. It’s four baserunners in 5 innings with 9 Ks. We should take that every time.
  8. Fangraphs roster resource feature is the closest approximation for looking at other teams
  9. I went a little meatball and did the same thought process, going so far as to be like 'well maybe he could be a shutdown multi inning guy'. But he's actually better second time through the order. And is generally a good pitcher. Nats offense is good, he had a good start last time, we'll be fine.
  10. Oh this was the guy who had that whole thing with Contreras a couple months back. Yeah, it'd be especially great to start knocking him around here.
  11. Eh. Realized I included that game in my 'last 10' stat which looks punitive. Not the intention. But also in the last 9 appearances, he has a 1.17 ERA and a 4.99 FIP (4 Ks, 3 BBs in 7.2). You can't be a good pitcher with a K rate below 5. It's just not sustainable
  12. Second game all season with both teams going 9 up 9 down to start is crazy to me.
  13. Are we talking about the same Milner? Last ten appearances: 8 IP, 4 Ks, 3 BBs, 7.88 ERA/6.83 FIP For the season: 35.2 IP, 4.5 K/9, 2.2 BB/9, 3.53 ERA/4.54 FIP
  14. It's crazy. The underlying metrics were good, the division/league is wide open for the taking, and they were looking at Skubal/Mize/Valdez/Montero for their playoff rotation. (I may or may not have an over 85.5 bet on them, so especially frustrating)
  15. He has a 3.85 FIP since the blow up, and his FIP in the start before the blow up was 4.67. Did you mean under 4? Also, the blow up game counts. He's been average. I don't see a lot of upside. Granted, not a huge Cabrera guy and we haven't seen upside there either. But think you have to lean Cabrera in whatever decision gets made.
