TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 I'm on my iPad so I can't post the full article but here's the link: http://andrewstoeten.com/2014/12/23/japanese-report-jays-have-made-formal-offer-to-toritani/ I'm not 100% positive if this was already posted or not, but given that the last few pages of the thread about second basemen is unsurprisingly full of useless off-topic garbage, I'm gonna go out on a limb. The translations in the above article also mention that the discussions between the Jays and Boras aren't going smoothly (shocker, I know). All said, I'd still really temper my expectations, given how hazy and unintelligible this entire situation really is.
LongTimeReader Verified Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Meh...... so f***ing tired of that scraggly Stoeten guy.....
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 I would say terrible source but i guess he's getting it from a Jap newspaper. Not really a huge fan of the player, but he would make a lot of sense if it's a 1 year contract to act as a bridge to Travis. Not sure he would be willing to come here for that though.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 It's Stoeten's site. Don't feel bad about not posting the full article.
gbill2004 Verified Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Report says negotiations with Boras aren't going smoothly and that term is the sticking point.

Could you be more of an insufferable cockbag?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Could you be more of an insufferable cockbag? Play nice
guylaroche5 Verified Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Play nice i'm convinced twisted ran over boxcar's dog or something
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 i'm convinced twisted ran over boxcar's dog or something I can't tolerate arrogant pricks. Call it a fault.
labadee Verified Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 ffs sign already. what's with all this unnecessary drama. wasn't he supposed to decide last week??
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 I can't tolerate arrogant pricks. Call it a fault. In that case, you must absolutely loathe living with yourself.
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 It's Stoeten's site. Don't feel bad about not posting the full article. Yeah, unfortunately he's the only one in Toronto that's covering this story.
King Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 In that case, you must absolutely loathe living with yourself. http://i.imgur.com/oTdRvvK.gif
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 In that case, you must absolutely loathe living with yourself. Real sharp and original there. "I know you are, but what am I?" is a real classic.

Deadpool Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Could you be more of an insufferable cockbag? He says, in a thread linking to a Stoeten article...
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 Real sharp and original there. "I know you are, but what am I?" is a real classic. There is absolutely no merit in wasting away originality on an insignificant tick such as yourself. I don't have even an iota of motivation in doing so. Speaking of originality though, you are what, the fourth in a line of insecure twats on this forum (after CHP, Moogy and Smokey, great company by the way) to bombard me with quote notifications about how every little thing I post on this site is an unjust atrocity inflicted upon your loved ones? This might be an earth-shattering revelation for you, and I'm sorry to blindside you with this if it is (truly sorry), but I really couldn't even begin trying to give a s*** about how you feel about me without falling asleep in the process. I apologize if I inadvertently gave your feelings a booboo, but I'm afraid you're just gonna have to find a way to live on in this cruel world after this emotionally taxing experience. Oh lookie, I think I just answered the question in your first post. http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/thefw.com/files/2013/05/Nicholson.gif
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Yeah, unfortunately he's the only one in Toronto that's covering this story. Probably because it's not a story. There is nothing here. Stop supporting clickbait hacks.
JaysRap Verified Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 We need Cabrera on a 1 year deal before someone else snatches him up. Then go flip Navarro for BP help. December was "early" but now it's the last week of the month going into January. Then 6 weeks Spring Training and you'd hope you have your roster set plus some invites.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 There is absolutely no merit in wasting away originality on an insignificant tick such as yourself. But you felt a couple paragraphs was?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Probably because it's not a story. There is nothing here. Stop supporting clickbait hacks. respond to PMs dumnie
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 Probably because it's not a story. There is nothing here. Stop supporting clickbait hacks. I'm not "supporting clickbait hacks" by linking to the only guy that's keeping tabs on the Japanese news in a story (yes) that was given credence when AA admitted they had scouted and were interested in the player. A Japanese outlet saying that the Jays have made an offer on a guy they've been said to like is more news-like than most of the other stuff that's usually written and discussed about this team. Also, I think Stoeten might unfortunately be immune to your genuinely noble crusade against s*** sports writers. His cult-like following of bearded hipsters isn't going anywhere.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Baseball Twitter fans are honestly the most naive demographic there is. Can a mod change the title? It's dishonest. smh
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 But you felt a couple paragraphs was? Sure? I said what I wanted to say. Do paragraphs bother you? Or does it take you a particularly long time to construct them?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Sure? I said what I wanted to say. Do paragraphs bother you? Or does it take you a particularly long time to construct them? I'm pretty ok at writing. Just doesn't make sense that you don't want to "waste originality" on him yet you spent the time writing that out.
TwistedLogic Old-Timey Member Posted December 24, 2014 Author Posted December 24, 2014 I'm pretty ok at writing. Just doesn't make sense that you don't want to "waste originality" on him yet you spent the time writing that out. Right, and I'm wondering just how long you think it takes to write a post of that length? You seem to really resent the concept of paragraphs, since this isn't the first or even second time you've made a comment on it. I don't know if maybe Twitter is more your cup of tea, but I'd rather make one post and say everything I want to say than make 15 different fragmented posts to deliver the same message. Little miss Boxy has been taking pot shots at me and making personal insults towards me for well over a year now. I'm sure if you add it all up you'll get more than 140 characters. Oh whoops, another paragraph. Sue me.
