Offseason Roster Thread 2017-18

[Angrioter]

He’ll be placed on waivers. If nobody claims him, I’m sure they’ll keep him.

 

Twins or A's kind of guy.

[Abomination]

Apparently Appel has been DFA'd. I'd love to have us get him to fill that long man / spot starter role. Maybe we can even sort him out, who knows?

[Pendleton]

I posted it, brah just above you. Use your eyes.

 

[Jimcanuck]

Hmm... must be someone on my iggy list

[Jonn]

IF Gift causes the Jays to get rid of Goins, then he really would be a gift. I doubt it though.

 

He would truly be the Gift that keeps on giving.

You have BTS on ignore?

[vdubmvp]

Ok I'm already sick of these puns.

As they say no such thing as a bad minor league contract.

[Brownie19]

Yeah I think 6.5 mil on a one year deal nets someone better than Koehler.

 

We got Joe Smith for $3M last year. There's no way I support Koehler for $6M.

[bzapple]

Koehler should absolutely be non-tendered but I wouldn't be opposed to re-signing him at a lower rate. Maybe they can pull another Liam Hendriks and get a good reliever out of a bad starter.

[Terminator]

I'd rather see if we could sign Alcides for a few million if we want to go that route. Or Gurriel, or Urena. No sense clogging up the 40 man further by adding a third one of those guys, and one with no upside to boot.

 

Gift has an option though. That's what all glove no hit guys like him should have.

[Abomination]

Gift has an option though. That's what all glove no hit guys like him should have.

 

Yeah, but he also takes a 40 man spot unnecessarily, unless we just try to slip him through. I just feel like the 40 man spot is more valuable to us than he is.

[Deadpool]

He’ll be placed on waivers. If nobody claims him, I’m sure they’ll keep him.

 

I'm pretty sure that you have to clear waivers before you can be outrighted... Maybe they mean that he can be claimed in the rule 5 now...

[Abomination]

Brugman was just DFA'd, and could be an interesting guy too. Showed poorly last year with the glove, but scouting reports on his defense seem to suggest he should be decent with the ability to play all outfield positions. Left handed batter.

DWL Toros del Este: Angel Perdomo added 40 man Roster for Toronto

 

No me gusta!!

[Deadpool]

Per MLBTR (and sorry if it was posted, but I didn't see it...)

 

Heading onto the Blue Jays’ roster, per a club announcement, are righty Connor Greene, lefty Tom Pannone, first baseman Rowdy Tellez, and catchers Dan Jansen and Reese McGuire.

[BTS]

I'm pretty sure that you have to clear waivers before you can be outrighted... Maybe they mean that he can be claimed in the rule 5 now...

 

I was assuming that they'd DFA'd him and announced that they intend to outright him, because there's no way he's had time to clear waivers. Maybe it's different for the period between now and the Rule V?

Pretty sure that only brings them to 39 spots.

[mtljaysfan]

If it were to me, I'd rather protect Romano than Tellez.

[glory]

I don't see the point in protecting Tellez. No one was going to take him, and even in the event someone did, the chances of him sticking when his only position is DH was pretty slim.

[P2F]

Perhaps Shatkins knew otherwise.

[Brownie19]

Perhaps Shatkins knew otherwise.

 

Yeah - perhaps we should leave these decisions up to the experts. These guys deserve the benefit of the doubt.

 

 

I can see someone grabbing Jonathan Davis and making him their 4th OFer for the year.

[glory]

Perhaps Shatkins knew otherwise.

 

A DH/1B with no versatility, no defensive value, coming off a dreadful season where he displayed no power and couldn't hit lefties. I mean I guess it's possible he could have been picked up, but I think more likely Shatkins probably liked him enough to hold on to him.

[Terminator]

Yeah, but he also takes a 40 man spot unnecessarily, unless we just try to slip him through. I just feel like the 40 man spot is more valuable to us than he is.

 

Well if it comes down to it and we need a spot on the 40 man we could just dump him. Since he has an option and is $1.2 mil cheaper than Goins I'd just as soon keep Gift and dump Goins though.

[Dick_Pole]

Jays just traded for that African infielder from the Pirates.

 

 

Please, please, please let this man play in one game this year. I want to see Buck get a seizure trying to say his name.

No he didn't, though I think he should've over Tellez, would've been safer.

[Spanky99]

The Score app just sent me a notification that the Jays are in on JD Martinez.

 

Yeah, Heyman's saying they're a darkhorse, and in on Bruce too.

[Spanky99]

I hope the Jays just called to tell his agent their asking price is ridiculous.
