Watch they will sign a free agent so we lose the top 15 pick..

 

Only if it's a pitcher. Jays will almost certainly give Cabrera a QO. Rasmus is uncertain. And the free agent market is seriously thin on bats..

Wow, I didn't realize Texas has been that bad. Though when you have JPA as your everyday first baseman it is never a good sign.

 

Jon Daniels probably gets canned so Ryan can bring in an old school former player to f*** the team over for years.

 

ANd likely takes Ron Washington with him too. Looks like the Rangers are back to the bad old days of big bats and no pitching, and no contention.. sounds like the Buffalo Bills.

Yeah Cabrera will get the QO surely. Ditto for Rasmus.

I think Rasmus might a long shot at this point actually.

 

Probably. I'd like to see him brought back on a one year pillow contract. The FA market is bare thin for CF's and Pompey is not quite ready yet.

I don't think using Gose and a cheap backup as a bridge to Pompey is the end of the world. It would free up money to address other needs.

Not the end of the world. I get why people would be hesitant to bring back Colby. His 0.4 fWAR is pretty ugly and i can see why one would want to move on from that. I just see a player that was looking at a massive contract post 2013 and has a good chance at providing surplus value on a one year deal. (and then maybe a QO draft pick, or trade deadline talent). The low fWAR is pretty much due to his UZR and if we average his UZR from his last 3 years. ( about the time it takes to stabilize) i think it's fair to say he's not as bad defensively as the metrics point to this year. (Also, probably wasn't as good last year as the metrics indicate).

 

I just hate to see him walk for nothing.

His defence this year has been really bad. For whatever reason if the ball is anywhere close to the wall he gives up on it. His DRS also suggests that he is not the defender he is from last year.

 

I think Rasmus will want to go somewhere else for a fresh start and Gose might just provide as much value as Rasmus with the defence and baserunning. Neither of them are everyday players IMO.

Looks like Blue Jays will be in that 15-17 spot. Not a bad pick by any means.

 

I like how people are favoring this.

 

We're basically in the WORST SPOT IMAGINABLE... basically the highest spot in the standings w/o actually being in contention.... this is the worst thing a baseball team can do for the clubs future viability.

Would you rather be in the Twins position? I wouldn't.

We've basically been trapped in baseball purgatory for 20 years now.

I wouldn't mind having Buxton and Sano. Those guys are going to rape baseballs in Minnesota before long.

 

They both have amazing talent but their recent injuries are a concern. Still, Id much rather have the Blue Jays org. talent.
