GDT: Chicago White Sox @ Toronto Blue Jays - 3/3

Why does vladdy keep nodding his head?

Man I wish we had Tim Anderson. None of this "put your head down and run the bases" BS. He hit a bomb and admired it. All the Brian McCann's (and unfortunately Grichuk's) of the baseball world can cry all day.

I just got in and realized it was the mother's day game. My wife hates all the pink bats and hats and stuff, so it's always a blast to watch this game with her..lol.

[Orgfiller]

Smoak is having the worst luck. That's three hard hit balls with nothing to show for it.

[Deadpool]

Smoak has angered the baseball gods somehow.

Awesome job by Teoscar. Fake bunt take another fastball down the middle lmao

[bones10]

No luck today

[jmomcc]

Jansen has been looking better to me lately. His at bats at the start of the season looked terrible but now I feel like he's hanging in there better and swinging with more authority. He might break out a little soon.

[Daniel Labude]

Vladito is so close

[Daniel Labude]

Worst pitching team in baseball just destroyed us in 3 games. Pathetic

Sanchez and Stroman for Hiura and Corey Ray...who says no?

Jays. Don't get me wrong, Hiura would be amazing but I find Ray to be overrated.

The fangraphs write up on Ray is not encouraging. Hiura looks good though. This seems light for the jays.

I don't disagree with you but my thought process is that you don't trade them both at the same time. The Brewers could get any available pitcher in baseball for Hiura, 1.75 years of Stroman sits where in the available pitchers? I'm not 100% sure, but if Hiura was available I would hope the Jays had that call already.

If Hiura is a 60 FV, that would be equivalent to Bichette. Bichette playes a more premium position and is younger, but still close enough. I wonder if we would do this trade for Bichette and Ray.

I hope they are already pushing that. Seems to be a perfect fit with the MIL OF and IF stacked and them needed pitching

 

Imagine

 

Vladito

Hiura

Bichette

Biggio

Ray

 

All in the lineup...

Corey Ray? I'd prefer to imagine him not in the lineup.
