  1. Why? It doesn't mean much so hot worth discussing too much.
  2. The difference between mendick and collins is probably near zero; the likelihood of Collins getting up again with he sox only having a 1 run lead is far greater than the chance that mendicks "speed" scores where collins doesn't.
  3. I'm honestly amazed that just happened. Just when you think you've seen it all, ricky gets you again.
  4. I hate this comparison... have teams ever paid a guy more than he was guaranteed because he performed better than paid? No. And one more time, it is not within the rules as defined. They are skirting it on a the fact that readiness is subjective. In regards of that part of the CBA, they are not acting within good faith.
  5. The Cubs wouldn't do it now that they're competing. Astros and Braves aren't "wealthy."
  6. With the way the baseball off season goes nowadays, they'd have to push it back to March 1st to protect against a bad off season.
  7. After the season renewals aren't really unique, but it's a weird season to transition to that now. Given how stagnated pricing has been for about a decade, I cant complain there.
  8. Amazing that Josh finds himself as a "voice of reason and reality" when he misrepresents numbers holistically by adding "second half." Implying that some large chunk of the season was a big struggle and not the 11 games he's been in a slump that all baseball players experience.
  9. The ball helps the smaller, less powerful, player much more than it helps the big hitters too.
  10. No. OPS+ has nothing to do with valuing one more than the other. wOBA does.
  11. This has nothing to do with it. The league, in general, has a higher OPS this year than it did in 2016 so when it normalizes, Jose is less better than league average than he was in 2016.
  12. Wealthy organizations don't exploit service time as often. If teams are competing their bring up their best players.
  13. League wide offense is way up from 2016.
  14. Everything about you makes so much more sense now, haha; the IT part.
  15. That's $22/hr over 40 hour weeks I believe. Much better than the minimum wage.
  16. The minimum salary is somewhere around 47k I think.
  17. If you want a company to run and operate exactly as you want, go open your own. When you sign up to work for someone, you don't always get what you want. You may think you're right but the bottom line is, it's not your decision. The company has no obligation to agree with your position whenever you're "right." That's work. Other people have opinions and you don't run the entire show. Work on your messaging and fight for the next one.
  18. Freedom of speech protects you against government prosecution pal, it has nothing to do with work. You don't deserve the right to blast your employer in a public setting. They're paying you to support and represent the company - read every handbook in the history of existence. You think it's OK to bite the hand that feeds you publically? Business is an internal matter the second you sign on the dotted line. If you have a problem with where you're working philosophically or opions wise then quit - no one made you work there.
  19. And for those quoting Matt Lisle's South Carolina work history, he was the hitting coach of the softball team. It's not really the same thing.
  20. Here's my take: 1. There's zero chance that's why he isnt working for the sox anymore. 2. It's stupid he would like a tweet, in a public position, ripping his employer even if it was complimenting him.
  21. What is the corporate world to posters citing it?
  22. Maybe. Or maybe Lisle wanted more money and a bigger position. He was making real good money as a private instructor (there's a lot of money in that at the tippy top) and if the Sox job took up time and wasn't enough status I could see him moving on
  23. Midseason? He's not a MLB coach. He didn't even have a seasonally directed role. It's not as if he's the hitting coach of a particular team. He's an advisor basically.
  24. No one here has any idea what Lisle did, why he was let go or etc.
  25. Nice guys? No matter how many times you say it, this is not in lines with the agreement.
