Here we go

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Dicktucked on the payroll question. Nothing like "Rogers is always committed to increasing payroll, etc."

 

lol We're f***ed.

[BTS]

Completely dodged the payroll question.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

See ya later Melky.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

This is embarrassing.

 

Alex just answer the f***ing question.

[BTS]

"I don't think you spend just for the sake of spending"

 

This is a trainwreck.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Implied that most teams hold the Jays in extremely high regard.

 

Alex, they're laughing at you... not with you bro.

[burlingtonbandit]

Is this his first public appearance in like 2 months?

[eastcoastjaysfan]

f*** off Wilner.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

"We don't have enough pitching depth"

 

Alex incriminating himself.

[jaysfan2014]

"We don't have enough pitching depth"

 

Alex incriminating himself.

 

He just doesn't want to trade starters.. bet he has nightmares over the Josh Johnson deal.

[jaysfan2014]

BTW, 5-year policies are not just exclusive to Toronto. Boston is in the same boat.. and it's part of the reason neither of us will get Lester or Scherzer.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Five year policy still firmly in place.

 

What a f***ing retarded policy. I get the logic that you don't want to commit long term to a pitcher but christ.... Why even put that on paper? Every situation is different.

[burlingtonbandit]

No 5 Year Deals lol.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Other then outfield I thought pitching depth was one of the bright spots this year and moving forward! Wtf!

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Defense question

 

Please don't mention Goins, please don't mention Goins.

[burlingtonbandit]

Steve Simmons is a moron but he actually asked a pretty good question.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Blames bullpen for season

 

LOL

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Yes Alex, completely disregard the lack of positional depth that we had all year.

 

It's the bullpen.

[burlingtonbandit]

Doesn't even answer the f***ing question about defence and just defers to the Bullpen

[BTS]

He thinks the Orioles bullpen is a big difference between them and the Jays. AA is gonna be investing in some relievers.

[G-Snarls]

"Usually the team who has the highest bid gets the free agent"

 

I guess that takes us off the list for any free agent.

 

Except for fat lazy catchers of course

[jaysfan2014]

Five year policy still firmly in place.

 

What a f***ing retarded policy. I get the logic that you don't want to commit long term to a pitcher but christ.... Why even put that on paper? Every situation is different.

 

More teams are going to do this as salaries continue to rise.. especially as free agency continues to decline.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

WTF a question in French?

 

GTFO

[jaysfan2014]

He thinks the Orioles bullpen is a big difference between them and the Jays. AA is gonna be investing in some relievers.

 

Obviously. And hopefully a 2B as well.
