I was checking your spreadsheet. Does that Mookie line say that the Sox have gained 6 WAR ? Not sure I understand. Cause we can't be talking about actual player production. Is this relative to the cost of the replacements v the cost of Mookie ? 1 WAR costs 8.5 million in free agency. You can convert dollars into wins and wins into dollars at this rate.
Sox got 5.2 war for $4 million so far. 5.2 WAR usually costs $44 million, so their side is worth +$40 million.
Dodgers got 3.7 WAR for $42 million, which is $10 million worse than you'd do buying random free agents (cause David Price hasn't done anything)
40 million - (negative 10 million) = Sox are ahead by 50 million. 50 million = 5.8 wins.
Hope that makes sense
(not trying to turn this into a Mookie debate!)
But doesn’t that only work if the saved money is used on players who actually convert those wins? Otherwise, you could pretty easily won a trade that sent a pricey great player for ok cheap players.

Dude....it is OK to take a pitch. For crying out loud, that looked bad.

Benintendi left the Yankees game with an apparent wrist injury from a checked swing. Didn’t look good.

If the Red Sox played 57 games against Tex, LAA, Oak, they would be leading the wild card by 10 games…. Raffy would have crushed 40 HRs by now.

Benintendi left the Yankees game with an apparent wrist injury from a checked swing. Didn’t look good. I hope it doesn’t affect his free agency, that would really suck for him. I’d be worried about a hamate injury

Any more on Pivetta’s injury? Did it look like a shin contusion to anyone else? It didn’t look good but hopefully there’s no fracture

I’d be worried about a hamate injury Seen too many of those hamate injuries over the years and that’s exactly what it looked like. Pivetta just a contusion. Doesn’t sound serious. Then again, that what they said about Story and Houck at first.
