Blue Jays Message Board Free Agent Prediction Contest 2015

[jays4life19]

Not sure I'd call Santos an amazing signing. The guys put up 2.5 fWAR for his career and can't control his best pitch. I'm happy we won't be seeing him in a Jays uniform.

 

You can't really go wrong with a minor league signing. He has nasty stuff, this could work out very well for the Dodgers. Would have liked to see the Jays re sign him.

I agree this could work out well for the Dodgers, but I still wouldn't call it an "amazing signing"

[jays_fever]

Did Ang ever pay GreendWood for the PL bet?

[SAAviour]

I live in Canada, but If I win, which is unlikely, you can donate the funds to the forum.

Yeah i can do that.

[NorthOf49]

So how should Scherzer's AAV be expressed? 30?

[Abomination]

So how should Scherzer's AAV be expressed? 30?

 

You should probably clarify that for next year. Imo, the contracts should be counted as the max possible amount the player can get.

[NorthOf49]

The cream always rises to the top......

 

Free agents yet to sign: James Shields, Ryan Vogelsong (likely Astros, who Abom and closetjaysfan picked), Casey Janssen, Rickie Weeks, Rafael Soriano, Dustin McGowan.

 

AAVs are total guaranteed commitment / guaranteed years. Also, the contest will end on Major League Opening Day (there will be no Stephen Drew or Kendrys Morales situations).

Nice. I think i'm going to win this again.

Huh, not awful, I suppose. I'm usually terrible at these things.

[jays4life19]

I charge very low fee's for advice. 5$ per text is my standard rate.

[NorthOf49]

The contest ends today, so I'll have a wrap-up post later and will crown the champion.

[jays4life19]

I assume i won. If not, the winner has the option of me mailing the 50$ Jays gift card or sending 50$ via e-mail transfer.

 

If you live outside of North America - I'm just sending the money electronically. Sorry.

[NorthOf49]

This contest is over! After one of the most exciting offseasons in ages, I am pleased to announce that... jays4life19 has won his second BJMB FAP Contest in as many tries! Wow. He is a free agent picking savant or something and has won a $50 gift card, from himself, as well as $10 not from himself.

 

TBJ12 won the contract guessing portion with 87 points and frenchsoup won the destination portion with 43 points, which tied all entrants aggregated (denoted as The Crowd). Rafael Soriano was the only unfilled free agent.

 

Here are the final results. Once again, thank you to all for playing.
