Unbelievably, it sort of makes sense

[Angrioter]

Wilner is a moron.

Take a plane and get away from your comfort zone just for .............. Goins and Gose?

[G-Snarls]

Yeah I read that yesterday. It actually does make sense.

 

But it's probably not enough of a difference maker to bother at this point.

Good way to piss off Hutch and Stroman.

If they are idiots it may.

Love the bait title Herp, nicely played lol.

 

They probably should do this, Mariners just did it with Paxton.

Might be a slight advantage there but hardly worth making a column over

They lose 3 days of MLB salary, as a player I would be pissed off lol. My guess is the players wouldn't even leave Toronto.

Of course they wouldn't leave the team. If they are that pissed about service time or salary, just pay it too them. This isn't a cap league.

I don't think you can do that with the rules in the CBA. You can't jut give a guy an extra 10k for nothing.

Wilner has made a couple of those types of posts this year. I think a move like this would just make an organization look bad playing around the rules.

Burning an option year just to get Goins/Gose up seems like a bad idea.

There is zero negative about this...and during your 72 hours to report you are paid a major league salary. It's just a way around starting your 40 expansion roster early.

Yeah it would be a smart idea but watch the org not want to disrupt Buffalo's hunt for the playoffs. The org could of done this Stroman at the ASB but didn't.

From the article.

 

If it doesn't cost an option I'd be fine with it but why not just keep them down and playing in AAA as opposed to sitting on the bench in Toronto.

Stroman would have had to stay down for 10 days though at the ASB. This way he wouldn't even have to get on a plane.

Well Hutch and Stroman would have to spend some time in Buffalo (which no MLBer really likes) and you'd be taking some of Buffalo's best players away for their playoffs series. That's a pretty big negative.

They wouldn't have to report since rosters expand before the 72 hours would be up. If you read the article that was posted you would know this.

So as AAA playoffs start they are going to take two of the Bisons' best players and not even have the guys they send down report? Terrible idea.

aren't Buffalo set to be eliminated? Even if not, Gose should be called up to the big club even if they are in the playoffs. MLB is always the number 1 priority getting Gose's legs up here a couple games early could be big for a team that really should still be trying to make the playoffs.

 

The move would look like this (if Gose and Goins and not an arm were their target)

 

Send Stroman and Hutch to New Hampshire

Gose and Goins to Toronto

Glenn and Nolan back to Buffalo (or Burns or Crouse...it's a weekend series if you want to call someone up for a matchup for Buffalo you could even do that)

I thought they were in the WC but they're 1.5 games out w/ 3 to play. Either way having Gose and Goins sit on the bench for the 3 days isn't going to help the Jays very much outside of the odd defensive replacement.
