Blue Jays acquire Ben Revere

[Spanky99]

don't have one favourite...too many good ones. Like zepplin, the doors, rush, pink floyd, etc..... How about you bud?

 

METALLICA!!!

Fangraphs didn't have Cordero ranked in our top 35. Tirado was 17.

 

This seems like a good deal right? #17 and #35 for 2-2.5 WAR Outfielder?

 

it fills a huge defensive hole... it's a good move once all the other moves were made. plugged our last hole.

[jaysfan2014]

so, what's our lineup tomorrow?

 

LF Revere

3B Donaldson

RF Bautista

DH Encarnacion

SS Tulowitzki

C Martin

1B Smoak or Collabello

CF Pillar

2B Goins

I wasn't a fan of the Price trade but I'm glad AA has actually committed to going for it, none of that "kinda compete" s*** from last year.

 

[TwistedLogic]

Phillies sending the Jays cash as well, lol.

Well I am a dad, so it fits . Dad rock is the best.

 

Could have just said your favorite music is the classic rock station

Rosenthal confirming that it's only Tirado and Cordero. Great deal AA.

[ColdPint]

That is simply just not a good trade.

 

Was just doing my best to stir up discontent/paranoia. Of course Pompey wouldn't be traded for Revere when he'll be the more valuable player by next year.

[glory]

Not bad.

 

I was expecting worse with the Lowe and Revere trades, but pretty much gave up depth pieces. Nice moves to round out the roster.

[o2cui2i]

LF Revere

3B Donaldson

RF Bautista

DH Encarnacion

SS Tulowitzki

C Martin

1B Smoak or Collabello

CF Pillar

2B Goins

 

with the offense that we have, I'd choose Smoak over DB or CC every day. Keep Ed at DH to protect him physically and keep CC and DV out of LF.

 

what are Revere's splits?

[TwistedLogic]

[King]

Is this better? I'm not a troll. I'm just trying to join the forum, have a bit of fun, and talk about baseball and the Jays. I'm not trying to mock anyone. Honestly.

 

You had the similiar name as fellow poster Angrioter

[Terminator]

Phillies sending the Jays cash as well, lol.

 

Oh s*** you are right lol. I wonder how much? Very nice deal.

[Spanky99]

I call BS. There is no way that is enough.... even Amero isnt that stupid.

 

Thinking the same.

[DuckDuckGose]

Cordero can touch 100 but has trouble with secondaries and command

 

Tirado can also throw hard and has trouble with his command

 

Big time durability concerns for Tirado as well, both project as relievers long term.

[over500]

Oh s*** you are right lol. I wonder how much? Very nice deal.

6 dollars probably, just like the Tulo trade.

[TRM]

Thinking the same.

 

Phillies official twitter confirmed.

[metafour]

"Nobody wants Alberto Tirado" - Said like 4 days ago.

[CHRIS]

LF Revere

3B Donaldson

RF Bautista

DH Encarnacion

SS Tulowitzki

C Martin

1B Smoak or Collabello

CF Pillar

2B Goins

 

I would stick with Tulo, JD and Bautista as the top three. That's got to be just terrifying for opposition pitchers warming up in the first inning.

[Spanky99]

Fangraphs didn't have Cordero ranked in our top 35. Tirado was 17.

 

This seems like a good deal right? #17 and #35 for 2-2.5 WAR Outfielder?

 

Sounds like a steal.

[guylaroche5]

I can't believe we're getting cash back too. Amaro got ninja'd as expected. s*** GM

[Sammy225]

Someone just fire Amaro already lol

Like it or not, you gotta believe Gibby bats Revere leadoff.

[King]

I know. I've read the forum for a while now, and I just thought it would be funny. Angrioter seems to have a good sense of humor, I like his posts, and he's popular on here. I figured he would appreciate it.

 

Yeah, it was funny. Dont mind o2

[burlingtonbandit]

Like it or not, you gotta believe Gibby bats Revere leadoff.

 

he said in an interview yesterday he likes having his best hitters at the top of the lineup for late in the game. Have to think he bats Revere 9th. or 8th with Goins in the lineup.

[guylaroche5]

Like it or not, you gotta believe Gibby bats Revere leadoff.

 

perfectly fine until Travis is back

[Sammy225]

No issue if gibby puts him leadoff against righties..... LHP Valencia gets the start and bring him in when we knock him out.

METALLICA!!!
