Jays management

[jays4life19]

Who's now Shart.

 

Very appropriate name for him.

[Todd]

Blue jays should also trade for CHRISTIAN YELICH by sending Marlins

Anthony Alford, Sean Reid-Foley, Justin Maese, Jonathan Davis.

Also sign free agents Todd Frazier and Lance Lynn. Only sign Frazier if they trade Donaldson.

You will see the why itn a bit.these moves.

Bichette or Vlad JR would have to be in a deal for Yelich I imagine(most likely Bo)

What's your strategy when the Marlins hang up the phone after you offer them Alford, SRF + garbage for Yelich?

It's the Marlins though haha

[Krylian]

It's also the Blue Jays and things generally don't come easy for us.

[L54]

I'd give up Bo in a deal for Yelich.

[Todd]

I'm confessed. Three of the four of them are in the blue top 10 and 1 is accounting to most on here. Is the blue jays 2 or 3 top prospect. And I might throw in Rowdy Tellez. But no way in hell should the blue jays trade Bo or Vlad. So why is it a garbage deal?

[Todd]

If all go's as planned then I would trade Marcus Stroman to Philadelphia for Franklin Kilome, Enel de los Santos, Darick Hall.

Which changes the blue jays top 30 prospects. Helps the blue jays contend for the playoffs, And deepens the top half of the farm.

That is one gross return. Three complete lottery tickets - great.

Gross.

 

I'd for sure want Sixto if we are trading Stroman there.

[Pendleton]

Yeah one of their top position prospects along with Sixto before we even get into secondary pieces like Kilome.

It would likely start with Sixto and Crawford, and then from there you round it out with a couple guys like Kilome, Medina, or Suarez.

If winning 45 games is your goal, that's a good way to start

Stroman for Sixto, Crawford and Kilome/Medina/Suarez?

 

I wish. That would be quite the haul for Sto.

 

I'd be happy with Sixto, Kilome, Cozens.

[Brownie19]

You guys think Crawford is going to hit? Good patience at the plate. Curious to see how he develops....although he stiffed my 7 yr old out of an autograph this past spring so f*** him a little bit.

It may be a tad high, but it's about right. You're undervaluing Stroman.

 

Also, Cozens sucks.

[Pendleton]

The offer needs to be impressive ( ie a tad high) in order for us to consider moving Stroman.

[Todd]

Can they trade Donaldson and still contend?This question was asked on blue jays banter.

My answer would be yes if St.Louis or who ever had the right package. And the jays

could sign the right free agents what do you think

It'd be pretty tough. We would be talking about taking a 3-6 WAR hit, depending on how much major league talent we got back. We are a fringe WC team as is, that would be tough to overcome.

[jaysguy44]

Donaldson in a deal for Reyes+

Stroman in a deal for Sixto+

 

A total rebuild at this point is what I'm hoping for, blow it up.

[Fiddlehead]

The Donaldson rumours won’t go away and you know what they always say, “where’s there’s fire there’s surely going to be some smoke”.....I just hope Shapiro can get some value for JD

No, no, no... ''where there's smoke, there's fire"

[Fiddlehead]

No, no, no... ''where there's smoke, there's fire"

 

All I can see is fire.....I live near a lot of Card fans who are really hoping a deal is made.

I don't see them contending even with Donaldson. This isn't basketball where you can ride one or two players. I see aging players. Unathletic players. A decent rotation (with no room for injuries). The prospects are coming, but rookies even when they get here they often take a couple of seasons to adjust and hit their stride. I just don't see what some of your are seeing.

 

I get that you have to field a team... But what I don't want is to be fed a line of s*** (ie. We're looking to contend 2018). You're not going to contend. Be honest and say we're retooling and we're looking to rebuild an athletic roster with the goal to have sustained success. That's what I want to hear, don't tell me patchwork solutions will keep us in the mix for 2018. At least the Leafs were honest and said there would be pain and they're building a program that would lead to prolonged success.

 

I guess I'm just old fashioned in that I like a talented, young core rather than retreads hoping they catch lightning in a bottle.

[SaskJaysFan_2]

I make the Bo+ for Yelich trade ONLY if we trade JD for two blue chips, and a starter (the Cards starting 3B and another).

What's with all the hype surrounding Sixto Sanchez? (nm - I found it. He throws 101)

 

I don't even buy the hype on Reyes. 4.5 BB/9 (+/-) in every level. Low GB%. Luke Weaver is the guy you want (if you have trade him to the Cards). Personally - if we are moving Stro and JD, I'd rather get positional players back. Moniak, JP Crawford, Kingery. Cards don't have the positional players we should target (IMO). Could take a flyer on Delvin Perez I guess.

[z3r0s]

He's young with a power arsenal and good control. Good starting prospect

[GreekFatAss]

He's young with a power arsenal and good control. Good starting prospect

Playing full season ball at 19. Probably in the majors at 21.

Is he pretty like Conner Greene too? IMO, the Phillies have too many good positional players to target Sixto (cool name though).
