Can Ryan Goins stick?

[TheHurl]

Where's this now?

 

I think they got rid of the Ladies Night. You probably could try your luck on $1 hot dog night

[gruber92]

Goins would probably be middle of the pack offensively on this team. Lol

I wouldn't feel right charging money

[Jimcanuck]

Now that Brito is gone, he would be the worst.

[Jimcanuck]

Can Ryan Goins stick, with 29 man rosters?

[jays4life19]

Jim what have you done?

[Jimcanuck]

Jim what have you done?

 

Trying to bring Gruber back

[Krylian]

So, did he stick?

 

[L54]

So, did he stick?

 

 

Yes he did

 

Any one of us would’ve taken his career in a heartbeat

[hanton]

Isn't he slim and fit? why did he suck so much?

[L54]

Isn't he slim and fit? why did he suck so much?

 

Excellent defender couldn’t hit s***

[BatFlip]

I see what you did there.

[Marew]

Unless baseball reference is wrong, 2.1m by age 35 is not bad. Better than most other career paths he could have taken. Unless he wanted to be a dentist or a lawyer or own a small business. But he made that money playing a game, he didn’t quite stick though. He will be disappointed no doubt.

 

Dalton Pompey had made 1.6m by age 26 which is also a pretty good head start in life.

 

I’m sure there are players with more talent like manoah who will have much more regret when they look back on their careers.

[wilko]

Remember when he played over 140 games one season for the Jays? That was fun.

[connorp]

Yes he did

$2.7 mil minus taxes. Not retirement money, so hopefully he saved/spent wisely. Not sure what he gets for a pension.

He seems like the kind of guy that might get a job at a baseball academy

But overall, yeah. Led a life most would take.

Actually more clutch than most of the losers in todays lineup,and a really good SS to boot.

No but more than the average Joe earns in a lifetime plus all the perks of being a big leaguer and a playoff run in 2015 he’ll never forget

 

I think I remember hearing on the radio during Bautista’s level of excellence day that Goins wants to get into managing. Guys like him fit the stereotype of those who can’t, teach

Yeah, I was just breaking it down. No doubt a dream life to this point

Too harsh. He played in the best league in the world. He could flash the leather with the best of them. He wasn't a career minor leaguer. Give the man his due.

I don’t think it was really an insult. It’s just a matter of some guys having the know how to pass on to someone else, but they just didn’t have the talent to make it happen for themselves. He’s definitely a step above the career minor leaguer, or guy that had a short cup of coffee

"those who can't, teach" is an insult Connor. Especially to someone who was able to stick in mlb.

that adage works if he becomes a hitting coach.

Lol that’s true. Probably won’t get hired as that

Ryan Goins > Guillermo Martinez

[hanton]

why are we talking about Ryan Goins? lol

He really squared that hanging breaking ball, saw it all the way. Too bad he couldn't do it more.

[Jimcanuck]

It's Gruber's fault. He has a poster of Goins on his bedroom ceiling.

[Omar]

Uhh okay?

 

As I said, "too harsh".

[Terminator]

Ryan Goins sucks and should have retired years ago.

 

He was mildly interesting for a year but otherwise I couldn't stand when he was on the team. I think because he was bald and hit left handed the casuals thought he was actually good.

 

He also had a very inflated ego for a player with a career WAR of 0.1. I seem to remember him being the guy who screwed up the pop up against KC in the playoffs too.
