Buck said Kirk is a good young catcher....changed his tune quick lol

[Jonn]

Holy f*** this guy is throwing absolute meatballs.

 

Safe to say he got throated? Absouletely dicked down.

Can we can resign both (Ray & Semien) because both will be looking for long-term deals while we need cash available for Vladdy/Bo in 2023 (if I am not mistaken)

[InvincibleTiger]

I don't want to see any of Romano, Mayza, Cimber or Richards used today. Need them for NYY

3 days ago:

Oakland A's: "We're close to a Wild Card spot. Just need to do well against the Jays"

A's pitchers: "Should we tell them what we're going to do?"

[InvincibleTiger]

Semien 5/100, Ray 4/80?

 

Orelvis our 3B of future. Trade Groshans for some more pitching.

I doubt we resign both, they will want to test the market.

[Jonn]

Actually slighty intrigued by Jake Lamb addition. If he can run into a few Homeruns at the bottom of the lineup that would be fantastic.

No chance Ray only gets 4/80 at this point. You’re looking at 4/100 at the minimum. More if he wins the CY Young. And he will be looking at 5-6 years.

That's cute.

Ray turned his career around here

[jaysguy44]

Suck it Boston

So all of your eggs in that basket? And if Orelvis doesn't pan out?

[Krylian]

He'll likely finish 2nd in CY.

 

5/120 or so for Ray.

Jays up 7-0 in the 3rd

Bo Sox losing 6-0 in the third

 

Life is good

I think the only obstacle resigning Semien might be a team willing to offer him a Shortstop job. I have zero doubt they will be willing to pay him. But is he ready to give up Shortstop forever is the question.

 

The fact that Semien went to the Jays knowing he wouldn't play SS leads me to believe that he will go to the highest bidder regardless. Whether the Jays will end up being the highest bidder for him this winter remains to be seen, but if they are, then I don't think he'll have an issue playing 2B full time and being Bo's backup at SS. Dude wants to get paid, can't blame him.

 

I've said before, if you can get both Semien and Ray locked up on 4 year deals, then go for it. If it goes beyond 4 years, as it could for Ray, then they might have to go a different direction.

Don't get cocky. Are you new to this bullpen?

1 pitch at a time.

[Jonn]

That doesn’t mess hes going to give us a sweetheart deal. Blue Jays will have to be his top bidder to regain his services.

[rydermike]

I'm hoping for Ray to go at least 8 given his pitch count. Avoid the bullpen

[jaysguy44]

If this lead holds this is the ideal game to get Pearson in there, need to get him right.

[InvincibleTiger]

Agreed. Give him an inning.

What's Merryweather's status?
