Alex Anthopoulos televised press conference today

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Like three people watching this right now can understand what he's saying.

 

Fuuck off

[burlingtonbandit]

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

 

And the question was about the s***** defence. Didn't even answer the f***ing question.

[G-Snarls]

Sanchez to be a starter next year

[eastcoastjaysfan]

"We're going to look to add relievers"

 

Andddd I'm done.

[G-Snarls]

We're going to look to add relievers

[burlingtonbandit]

AA seems to not no the value of relievers. Sounds like relief pitching is more of a need than 2B, LF and CF by the way he is talking FFS

[G-Snarls]

To be fair, with Morrow, Santos, Delabar and McGowan all likely gone, +/- Janssen, he WILL have to get some new BP members

[G-Snarls]

Came close to saying there are middle relief guys they might buy in free agency to become a closer

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Alex trying to justify building a team around aging, injury prone players.

[BTS]

Now he's implying that some injury-prone players could have played through more pain.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

So your saying Janssen is staying? I thought he was gone in sixty too!

[burlingtonbandit]

Sounds like AA is questioning Lawrie's toughness.

[G-Snarls]

Health history "starting to factor in a little bit more"

[BTS]

"Durability is going to be weighed more than it has"

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Excuses, excuses, excuses.

[burlingtonbandit]

Holy f*** AA can't even recall how bad the team was in August.

[BTS]

You didn't like how it was worded or the process?

 

Pretty obviously the wording. That's a phrase that gets used when a team is about to not add impact talent.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

At least they're not moving Lawrie from 3B.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Club medical ward has hurt us the last couple years!

 

Genetics failed us or does it also point out lack of mental toughness?

 

Suck it up princess! Lol

[oakville69]

AA's office is next to Paul Beeston's. AA will discuss payroll with Paul in the offseason.

 

AA is adamant that no free agents will get more than 5 years.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

7-8 years for Melky?

 

Da f***?

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

"Durability is going to be weighed more than it has"

 

Bye bye Lind! Morrow! Etc etc etc!

[G-Snarls]

7-8 years for Melky?

 

Da f***?

 

No one will sacrifice a draft pick and give him that

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Jeff Blair!

 

f***ing awesome question!

[G-Snarls]

Jeff Blair!

 

f***ing awesome question!

 

? Reyes defense

 

agree

[John_Havok]

7-8 years for Melky?

 

Da f***?

 

No kidding, he'll get 4 at absolute maximum from any team, there no need to even think that him getting 5+ years is a con ern

[G-Snarls]

"I don't know if we had a backup shortstop this year"

[BTS]

"I don't know that we had a backup shortstop this year. That's not to cast blame, but..."

 

Where does the blame lie Alex?

[burlingtonbandit]

We didn't have a backup SS this year... Goins and Kawasaki play a better SS than Reyes

[eastcoastjaysfan]

What a joke.

 

So his defensive issues are due to fatigue.

 

Good analysis Alex.
