Sportsnet literally had a commercial about his arm last spring saying he was working on his velocity in the off-season lol. Honestly though I feel bad for Jose.

 

Thanks tips, I feel bad for him too.

Among the worst... still, from one of the strongest arms to one of the worst is a massive drop. It must be mashed potatoes in that shoulder.

Bautista is going to show up to spring training fat as hell with the amount of humble pie he has been eating this off-season.

Who'd a thunk, you act like an @$$hole and you will have a hard time finding a job. Jose was a good player, but I never liked him as a blue Jay. Too much with the umpires and then he wrecks his arm being an asshat.

Wonder if a modified weighted ball program would help Bautista.

Jose is getting f***ing destroyed out there. I still think he gets something decent, but wow. I will be shocked if Jose comes back here at this point though. Pride probably being the biggest deterrent.

 

Barely related: Who is the biggest assface when it comes to burning a bridge of money in hopes of finding more elsewhere and then screwing it all up?

 

Off the top of my head, Ian Desmond turning down a nice chunk of cash from the Nationals, having a terrible walk year, then signing a 1-yr with the Rangers to play the OF. (Now he has a nice deal with the Rox, but it's still ultimately less and he couldn't have anticipated it two years ago.) Scherzer rolled the dice too when Detroit offered him a fat stack of cash, but IIRC that was midway into an excellent walk year.

Didn't he just get 70 million from the Rockies? Bats has a way worse reputation than Desmond and his comments from last spring followed by his season are exactly why you shut up and play baseball.

 

Never liked JB19, good player who thought he was bigger than the game. Karma...

I remember Tim Lincecum bet on himself and lost just before 2011. I think he turned down a $100M extension.

 

But the Giants inexplicably gave him a $35M extension anyway when he didn't deserve it down the road so he didn't suffer. Should have lost out on $75M though!

I fi remember correctly Scherzer was smart about it though and insured his arm lol. If he got an arm injury he was going to get a nice chunk of change for it.

Minor note but Stephen Drew did this, although it was Boras' fault. He turned down a QO from Boston of $14M, and couldn't get a deal until AFTER opening day. The deal? 1 year/$11M from BOSTON, lmao
