2017 Blue Jays Spring Training thread

Apparently we are being linked to Angel Pagan again. Really got to get that done. Plug him in the lead off spot against RHP. Let Zeke go (unless he clears waivers) and Pompey open the season in AAA.

When is Sanchez suppose to pitch in ST?

[jays4life19]

Is the game on TV today? Pretty good lineups for both teams.

they went to the same school as me

I met them this past summer when we were negotiating with Tyler Shaw (they are managing him or something) and they look like normal Businessman Jews now.

Great Reference and that brings back memories of when I was in middle school. I forgot these guys existed

[Laika]

The added weight on Pompey is obvious from the rear. Look at this ass:

 

[Boxcar]

The only thing we should care about is how he pitches.

 

No s***? I thought the M in MLB stood for modeling?

F'n Gibby LOL

[Pendleton]

 

Lmao how can anyone not love Gibby?

Some of his tactical decisions are questionable, but he's far from being the worst in the league. But you can't argue with his interpersonal skills, the players really seem to get along with him.

Oh sure, I can understand some of the frustrations with his managing. But as a person - guy is nothing but a beauty!

Royals, Jays, Mets and Rays are among the teams that have interest in Brett Lawrie according to sources. http://es.pn/2mUnNls

John Gibbons on Jose Bautista: "Today’s probably the best BP I’ve ever seen him have and I’ve been around him a few years" #BlueJays

[RealAccountant]

No thanks to bringing in clubhouse cancers like Lawrie

[Laika]

Jose seems locked in. Can we just put him in a jar until the regular season?

[Brownie19]

Lawrie and Pagan replacing Smoak and Zeke on our roster would be some excellent upgrades.

[Gary]

Holy s***! Gibby suggesting JD sees prostitutes!! Wow!

Speaking of Gibby I took my 6 yr old son to the Jays v. Twins game on Saturday. We went early to try and get autographs....stood behind the Jays dugout before the game...all set up to get some when the players finish warming up....until the Twins usher guy yells at 15 mins before the game to get in our seats (crusty old f***). After the game we fight the clouds and get down to the dugout only to see Reece M. Sign his last autograph and leave. Unfazed we ask someone where the jays leave the clubhouse and are told the bus is over there in a restricted area but there's a 2nd storey balcony we can see them from. We go over, hang the ball over and watch all the jays ignore us (couldn't hear us over the loud buses + couldn't see us up top). At this point my son is very sad/discouraged and begins to cry a bit. I console him...she of the twins officials try and play with him a bit but he's clearly upset. Finally an officer sees us from down below and tells us to throw down a ball and he takes it on the bus....who else signs it but the skipper himself - Gibby.

 

Made my son's day.

I swear if he gets hurt playing g in the WBC...

Bwahahahaha... Gibby f***ing Rocks!

[jays4life19]

mat latos is really bad at besibol. Pretty much put the nail in the coffin today.

Jeebus, yes.

He's going to get hurt 2-3 times this season. Might as well have one instance happen in March. Get it out of the way.

[Terminator]

Has Morales been playing any 1B so far this Spring? I'd love to see him carve out 50+ games there. Means less Smoak.

 

He might not be half bad at it either. He hasn't played there much in recent years but in his career he's gotten decent marks in both DRS and UZR/150.

There's a fairly common belief that he's a good 1B that just happened to buried behind Hosmer. Would certainly be nice to move him to 1B when Josh or Jose can use a DH start.
