Low A

 

His level was lower because he has missed a lot of time with injuries. if he can stay healthy he could be a great piece going forward.

I can't decide if a I want the Orioles to kick some ass in the post season or get humiliated in the first round

 

f*** them, I hope they get swept in the first round.

Winning season for the Jays.

 

Oh, and with the Jays winning, the playoffs are (almost) set:

 

(#1) Angels vs. (WC) KC or DET or OAK

(#2) Orioles vs. (#3) KC or DET

Doubtful. I think someone offers him 4-years 65M and he gone.

 

QO for sure for Melky. so the worse thing that happens is the Jays get a pick.

 

what about Jansen, do they try to bring him back?

Yeah it's a near certainty that Lind and Mayberry with platoon at 1B. The issue is it makes Valencia pointless to have, since he won't be platooning with anyone, and he's not versatile enough to be useful when the team needs a 4th OF and an infielder who can at least play short (Izturis) to back up the middle infield. They have to decide who they want long-term, Valencia or JMJ. I don't think there is any need for both.

 

Unless Valencia starts at 3B, but Gibbons seems to have given up on that illogical dream thankfully.

I'm not creating a new GDT. Jose deserved that K, after Pat saying "he's looking very hitterish out there".

 

I picked up Happ for his two start week in my big pool and with about a $400 difference between 2nd and 3rd WHIP is the biggest stat for me right now. I will either be team Happ or sending him death threats after this game.

Happ is doing just good enough for the front office to bring him back as our #4-5 next year.

 

He's eaten some innings this year but I don't care to see him again next year.

 

Honestly we don't need him

 

But that doesn't mean his option is worthless. If happ becomes a free agent teams would have to prob sign him to 2/20. AA should be able to take happ's option and deal him subsequently for an asset. If he isn't than AA is a failure

Unless you are signing another starter I can't see them not at least picking it up with the thought of trading someone if needed. Carrying 7 starters is only an issue if you are blocking someone who is absolutely going to out-pitch the guy blocking him. With Sanchez and Norris still being question marks I think Happ is worth picking up the option, having options in March is a good thing. Picking up the option without at least shopping a starter would be stupid though.

He is reed Johnson except reed Johnson pounded left handed pitching which made him a great platoon player

 

probably can't do it over a long career like Reed...but I can see Pillar's best seasons close to that 117 wRC that Reed has against LHP.

But you are not a Jays fan so what does it matter ;-)

 

AA and Beest could be gone by then and I can come back. And I still watch most Jays games.
