BTS Community Moderator Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 FS just tried to trade him to me for Donaldson lol
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 How the f*** did former org guy/utility nobody Ryan Schimpf hit 35 HR last season? If Miguel Sano or Joey Gallo had his season, I would have considered it a success.
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Schimpf slugged .300+ at various levels, in various seasons. He played important positions. He walked a lot and didn't strike out an egregious amount. The mistake was labelling him an org/utility player. A massive but not uncommon scouting failure. There was probably some ageism and same batting average bias skewing all opinions of him.

Jays are good at developing pitchers, but we're probably the worst team in baseball for developing hitters.

He hit at every level he was at.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Can we add players from the FA pool?

BTS Community Moderator Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Well, it took me less than three weeks to get annoyed with Andrew Cashner and drop him.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Well, it took me less than three weeks to get annoyed with Andrew Cashner and drop him. There goes your opportunity to name your team Cashner Ousside, How Bow Dah
BTS Community Moderator Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 There goes your opportunity to name your team Cashner Ousside, How Bow Dah Fun fact: that girl is now charging a 30K appearance fee.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Fun fact: that girl is now charging a 30K appearance fee. Damn, I need a catchphrase and a good medium in the worst way.
L54 Old-Timey Member Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Fun fact: that girl is now charging a 30K appearance fee. And that's what's wrong with our world.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 And that's what's wrong with our world. He only said she was charging. Doesn't mean anyone's paying.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Tyler Glasnow's first ST appearance: Strikes out Manny Machado Strikes out Chris Davis Strikes out Mark Trumbo Strikes out Seth Smith Strikes out Jonathan Schoop Wellington Castillo singles on a fly ball to Andrew McCutchen Strikes out Ryan Flaherty Oh boy. http://i.imgur.com/CwIzRyK.png Oh boy.
L54 Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 He only said she was charging. Doesn't mean anyone's paying. Well she's not charging an inconsequential amount so someone has obviously been willing to pay that dumb bitch to act like trailer trash.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 http://i.imgur.com/CwIzRyK.png Oh boy. This is a common opinion: O Dizzle 1:39 What do you think of Tyler Glasnow struggles in spring training? Seems like he is still not ready for the majors until he can throw a good change up and improve his control. Eric A Longenhagen 1:40 Same thing I've thought about Glasnow for several years, he either develops those things or is a reliever. (checks watch)

Eric A Longenhagen 1:40 Same thing I've thought about Glasnow for several years, he either develops those things or is a reliever. (checks watch) I think everyone understands that the odds are against Glasnow becoming a front-rotation starter. He's probably not going to harness his stuff and he's probably not going to learn a changeup - A Francisco Liriano type starter career or high end bullpen arm are not unlikely outcomes though. And then there's the chance that he does pull the Aaron Sanchez and figure out how to command his pitches.
Cyborg Verified Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 It is easier to learn command than it is to gain velocity and stuff at least. He's only walked 3 guys and struck out 9. Just appears to be bad batted ball luck.
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Well she's not charging an inconsequential amount so someone has obviously been willing to pay that dumb bitch to act like trailer trash. I've decided to start charging $8000/hour for fantasy baseball advice.

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 This is like paying Michael Moore to be your dietitian.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 This is like paying Michael Moore to be your dietitian. Dietitian is an unappealing-looking word.

BTS Community Moderator Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I fixed the divisions, so the schedule is different now.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I fixed the divisions, so the schedule is different now. Our division's pretty kickass.
BTS Community Moderator Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Our division's pretty kickass. We open against each other in BORED and DDL.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 We open against each other in BORED and DDL. Bring it.
