Blue Jays seeking replacement for Beeston

[Orioles]

I like you.

 

That site is a joke.

 

1. You gotta pay to use the full site.(The owner of that site is making mad money off those loser that pay)

2. If you don't go full homer you won't be around long.

I was wondering the same thing, but I think it's affected Baltimore more. DD may have just shut down business completely until this gets sorted out.

 

He's a consummate pro, he wouldn't jeapordize the org.

[TwistedLogic]

Look at teams like Oakland and Tampa that can't put butts in the seats even though they've both had recent strings of success.

 

We don't have A's and Rays fans coming here talking s*** about empty seats.

[Spanky99]

It probably has hurt Baltimore more, but doing nothing for two months waiting for Lloyd Christmas to broker a deal for an executive may have cost the Jays a win or two just by not adding talent when the opportunity was presumably there. Twenty two years without the playoffs and ownership freezes the roster to negotiate with an executive? That's disgusting.

 

WAT?

Yup, He didn't do anything till February last year. It's just the way the Orioles work.

I find it crazy if Jeff Hoffman name is really being talked about. Why haven't the Jays just walked away already? Do you guys really have a hard on for Dan?

Are we sure they haven't walked away? Nothing is public. They may have reached an impasse last week and had no discussions since.

It's being talked about by idiots in the media. If Hoffman was actually on the table DD would be picking out office furniture in the Rogers Centre already...

[Spanky99]

And the Jays would be stuck with a CEO that just got stabbed in the back and who doesn't seem like the brightest bulb at the best of times.

 

He's retiring KK, I'm positive this BS crossed him, but the Beast is leaving in late 15', he probably doesn't care all that much. Rogers, just dropped the ball here, bigtime.

[Testicles]

No, not quite like the Blue Jays.

Other than the first line, you're comparing apples to tractors.

Apparently, Ed Rogers and Roger Rai do.

lol

WAT?

Not sure how reliable it is since it was from Blair, but apparently AA has/had deals lined up for Navarro but was told to hold off until the Duquette thing was settled. Considering the team hasn't done anything since the rumors first started, I tend to believe it.

Colby Rasmus approves this analogy

90 wins: Orioles 1/3, Jays 1/8

Division Titles: Orioles 1/6.5, Jays 1/7.5

100 Wins: Orioles 1/12, Jays N/A

Didn't feel like doing exact math but they should all be close enough.

C'mon man. The media are spindoctors, nothing is fact. Wait and see.

O's fanfest is Jan 31 hope this is over by then.

Jim would run with that too.

"If they did that people should protest outside the stadium," Brunt says of the idea of dealing Hoffman for Duquette.

"There are people in the Rogers hierarchy who thought this was [AA's] last chance."- McCown, who wonders if those wanted Beeston to fire AA.

McCown needs to stop "wondering" about baseball.

yeah, the Blue Jays "State of the Franchise" is on Feb 5 . . . too bad Edward Rogers III & Roger Rai won't be on the podium.

Nah, they'll leave it to Beeston and AA to dance around the subject.

No ********,(from me) but McCown is in tight with the Beast. Just saying...
