I wanted to add that the Deitrich comp for Biggio is bang on, that seems like a realistic outcome given the similarities of their minor league numbers.

If anyone here posts on Reddit and would please post the link to the article there, that would be super duper. You will get a thank and much appreciation from yours truly.

 

Someone can try but the mods there will probably make it invisible immediately just like last time.

 

Maybe so, but I figure it's worth a try.

 

I posted it before bed last night and the thread lasted at least 9 minutes before it was made invisible. What the f*** is wrong with that place? Like, why is it that posting Blue Jays content is discouraged? Seems like only content from the really big publications is allowed. It makes no sense.

Probably because they see us post about that place and we say it's a s*** hole.

 

But it's legitimately a shithole because they block any content from this site and RSP.

I feel like it's a policy built out of spite. Like you're using their large platform to push certain things even though you aren't a regular contributor. Essentially a rule against coattails riding.

 

When we replace Tim and Sid, I'll be sure to tell Reddit they can SMC.

This is a Fangraphs quality write up. Thanks for posting

 

Not sure if that's a compliment or insult now. Lol

 

Great feedback though!

Whoa. I wonder if that's someone who posts here. If not, that's a hell of a compliment coming from someone we have no affiliation to.

Definitely agree with the sentiment. I'm really not one to sit down and listen to podcasts but your written content is excellent. Quality, data based information, without being too rigid to include some wit/humor - very enjoyable stuff.

Just checking here - leaving Warmoth and Pentecost off the list: egregious omission or no?

 

Pentecost is pretty much ded. Warmoth is practically there, but he still has time for some redemption, but he'll probably never be anything.

I'd honestly be shocked if Pentecost was on any decent list anymore, and the Warmoth omission doesn't bother me. You could probably give them both small bumps based on their awesome names, but that's probably a different list.

They don't want people to create an account just to post their content. It's basically free advertisement.

If you start posting there regularly and people recognize your name because you regularly generate positive discussion then they will let your post stay up.

See Rule 7 of the Jays subreddit:

7.

No promoting your own site or blog

If you're going to post your own blog (or blog-like) site, then be an active member of the community. We allow some leeway, and we welcome active members of the community to share content they've created within reasonable limits (don't spam). If you're not an active member of the community please refrain from posting links to your own blogs or site.

 

If there's any doubt regarding if your post violates this rule, feel free to message the moderators and we'll clarify it for you.

It's been up for 24 hours now.

I'm aware of this rule, but they don't know that I'm affiliated to the blog. I'd ban me too if I was linking some ******** blog article or something, but this is so much more than that, imho.

 

Anyway, this is all moot because a respected member of the community posted it on our behalf and it's still up (80% upvoted at the time of writing).

If you want stuff posted let me know, I'm not active on either here or there but my stuff doesn't seem to get deleted if this post is anything to go by.

I liked the list and format a lot. Has it got any interesting re-tweets or forwards that you known of. Now the episode I thought lacked direction and had some awkwardness...but it still made me laugh several times. The exception being the poor cat getting blamed for Mariam's flatulence, that story lacked for me.

It was pretty funny in the moment because she had me and the PetSmart guy 100% convinced that it was the cat

Can you please give us a 5 star on iTunes that just has this text? Thanks.

Very good constructive criticism.

Yes! Blue Jays Aggregator, Future Blue Jays, and Tammy Rainey of BP Toronto all retweeted it, among a host of others. We got likes from Josh Winckowski, Jeff Quattro of JFtC, and Adam Garland of Pitcher List, among others.

 

The article has generated close to 1000 views, but I'd like for it to reach new heights from here. I was thinking about tweeting it at a bunch of prospect writers but thought that might be super obnoxious. Thoughts?

 

I submitted it to MLBTR's blog round-up, but I doubt they'll list it. I guess we'll find out this weekend.

 

Hurl, if you feel like being a pal and tweeting it at some of the players (well, everyone but Forrest Wall, maybe), I wouldn't stop you.
