    Durbin Feltman: Mighty Morphin' Power Reliever

    Mutiple people? You and another person is "multipel people." you want to say instead of a couple. That makes "multiple" seem "more" doesn't it? It was 2, wasn't it? Yiou figure you'd use the word "multiple." Well It's time to put you on ignore. Feel free to do so with me too. HE was a 3rd...

    Vazquez to DL with broken pinkie, out 6-8 weeks

    Okay but if he hits .250 over the remaining time he gets to play as catcher - before this season his average was .270 - so if he hits .250 from this point and isn't awful at catching-- how much of a difference would you see between him and Vaz? You're right - I agree- Swihart is not the type of...

    Durbin Feltman: Mighty Morphin' Power Reliever

    What? So "multiple scouts" means "all scouts?" What's with the sarcasm buddy? Not everyone agrees that he'll be ready. You really need to make this type of post at me?

    Vazquez to DL with broken pinkie, out 6-8 weeks

    If the Red Sox continue to win while Swihart is behind the plate he'll play unless his defense is a complete disaster. He would need to be a complete disaster for him not to play. If you win with him, you don't want to wear down Leon. And if he doesn't play now, then what's the point of even...

    Durbin Feltman: Mighty Morphin' Power Reliever

    I know. I said "I doubt it." Maybe he can . . . Just offered an opinion.

    Durbin Feltman: Mighty Morphin' Power Reliever

    I doubt it. He was a 3rd round pick. Many teams would be looking for a solid reliever to help in 2018 and thereafter with closer ability. A 3rd rd pick probably means he has a ways to go. He would have been taken earlier. OFC many teams could make mistakes. But I wouldn't count on him this year.

    Potential Trade Deadline Targets

    I think they should push the envelope to play the Red Sox off the Yanks regarding the tarde of deGrom. If it doesn't work they've lost nothing.

    Rework JD Martinez contract?

    No. As someone else said on here-- you talk about "buying high?" This is the definition of it. IMO there was never a question of JDM doing well in 2018. While he is doing better than thought he has been regarded as a stud bat amongst the best in baseball.

    Price is right

    imo not even near a question. There is no way he should be even considered to be bumped to the bullpen. He got wiped out. It happens. He's a quality pitcher.

    JBJ: Elite Defender With Some Pop

    okay everyone I'm done with this thread for a while. Sorry it got to the last point. Waiting for another great game tonight.

    JBJ: Elite Defender With Some Pop

    With respect. I feel the same way. You and maybe a couple of others on here are the only ones from all the websites I've been on to suggest JBJ is an above-average hitter. I can't believe it. Also, I don't know if it was you or someone else who was making up some stats of +/- without taking into...

    JBJ: Elite Defender With Some Pop

    No. He isn;t. He's hitting 9th for a reason behind what once was also lousy hitting catchers and Nunez and at the time a struggling Devers. The bottom of the order was a hitting problem. They were able to overcome it. But as of right now JBJ's WRC+ is 69. His batting average .200 with a .289...

    JBJ: Elite Defender With Some Pop

    DD cared enough to address to get a bat vs left-handed hitters. DD is not ignoring it. He shouldn't. Right now they are hitting throughout the lineup. SO yes "no one cares." But DD even said in his press conference he got a bat to address LH pitching didn't he? So was it only to get a sub for...

    We're halfway through the season

    I think their #1 and our #1 is even in that I don't think they are distinguishable at this point when it comes to playoff time. As far as a number 2-- I look at it similar too but what I see is that the Yanks have a chance to get a very good starter and then have a chance to get another very...

    JBJ: Elite Defender With Some Pop

    What are we arguing? Maybe you are trying to morph this argument into something it isn't? Specifically what I said to you or whoever responded to my post about "going off" can't change the meaning of my definition to your own definition. I don't think most managers see the game like you are...
