NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 That's the thing...interested teams think that he is going to be put on waivers anyway - why give him a player? Interested teams would be willing to take the risk of it being claimed by someone before them, but if not, they can easily take him on just for that salary for this year and maybe buy out the following years. He'll probably just clear waivers, go to Buffalo and leave the Blue Jays on the hook for the same 2014 number as before. I don't think this is some creative payroll thing. If there were any interested teams he would already be pitching for another team.
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Damn, dunno what to say about this. Incoming trade? It conveniently opens a spot for Sanchez
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Anyone else think his nose looks like Voldemort's in this picture from thescore.ca?

BTS Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 After 20 innings of inflated ERA ball the FO has decided that Rogers and Santos are worse pitchers than Rasmussen, Mills, Sanchez, and McGowan. This org is awful.

KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 And yet, our choice for closer is far better then anything the Rays have done this year. But you know what, the Rays can claim Santos if they like him. Yes or no, should the Rays claim Santos for their "pennant run" ? Just because BTS posts it, doesn't make it about the Rays you simpleton.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 I was waiting for some useless commentary It's only useless commentary in the same way every post on this forum is useless commentary. There just isn't a basis for the belief that guys like Mills, Rasmussen, McGowan and Sanchez are better pitchers ROS than Santos and Rogers. I'm sorry that you don't like that opinion.

o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Don't they have 10 days to retract the designation?
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Oh, the joys of being called a "simpleton" by a Jays board hack. I'd bet strong money I have a higher IQ and a stronger degree then 99% of the people on this forum. Reality over bulletin board bs every single time. Estas demostrando un nivel muy alto de inferioridad con ese ultimo comentario. El egocentrismo nos limita como personas, nos hace creer que somos un producto completo; dejamos de buscar lo que nos hace falta y que nos hara mejor persona. Ahora, cierra tu asquerosa boca y se mas humilde pedazo de ignorante troglodita!!

GeorgiaPeach Verified Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Why the hell are people quoting CHP? Because a cooler head may eventually prevail. And it might not be CoolerHeadsPrevail.

Relax I agree with you for the most part but relievers are unpredictable. Rasmussen can look good for the next month for all we now
jays76 Verified Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) I pray some GM picks him up, what a nightmare tenure since he's been here. The writing was on the wall with his injuries even before he came, it was such a roll of the dice that predictably backfired. I hated having him from day 1, that and trading super utility boy Yan Gomes for Esmil Rogers were complete head scratchers. Edited July 21, 2014 by jays76
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 I always though a strong math background, or extensive work experience in the area of data analysis would be applicable to this area. But thanks for clarifying that. Perhaps we can have a lot less statistical content posted on this board then. Says the guy who thinks Tyler Bozak is a 1C stud.

jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 So wait.....is Santos not better than Janssen? Santos is still better. It wasn't Santos' fault for his implosions. Just bad luck.
Chappy Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 http://www.abebooks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Voldemort.jpg It all makes sense now.
