Gurriel's trade value has gone up for sure. His OPS is closing in on .800

[EdwinsParrot]

Just came home so missed the start, but damn another grand slam for Lourdes I see:cool:

[Jonn]

Yea he’s going nowhere. He makes absolutely nothing for the next 2 years. And he still has an arbitration year. So 3 more years of control at absolute steal of value.

[Jays24]

I will look at the full body of work. Hes a dog s*** hitter with a slow bat. Should never hit higher than 8th in a Major League Lineup or play more than twice a week.

 

"Great since May"... wonder how many games or at bats that even includes. Guys batting around .200 for a reason lol

[Jays24]

Gurriel is f***ing awesome!

[glory]

Before today's game, Gurriel since May 15:

 

2.2 WAR, 349 PA, 138 wRC+, 7.2 BB%, 17.5 K%

 

Now he goes out and hits a salami.

I hope they don't trade Gurriel...love that guy.

[Governator]

I blinked and missed all this... lol

[Jays24]

I just want the Jays to try Gurriel at 3B. That would work out perfectly for us.

[Jonn]

I hope they don't trade Gurriel...love that guy.

 

Unless they are getting an insane return it won’t happen. 3 years of control. And is making less than 10 million for the next 2 years.

[saskjayfan]

Matz is fighting for money with every pitch....he's had such a good year. You'd think him and Ray should at least buy Pete a watch or something when they sign their fat deals.

[Jimcanuck]

He's got the arm, we know that.

[Skinny Wolf]

Moreno or Groshan are 3B for Jays.

Gurriel will play LF, 1B and DH

[DigitalRock]

Nice inning matz

[Solaxys]

Wow Jays ahead and a shut out inning, hasn't happened in the last 3 games.

Feels so refreshing.

[glory]

2022: $4.5M

2023: $5.4M

2024: Arb

 

I mean, they could trade Gurriel if the return was right, but since they like to spend big boy money in free agency now, having an everyday player who is that affordable is a pretty nice luxury as arb costs and free agent costs go up.

[connorp]

Matz ERA down to 3.68. Wonder what kind of deal he gets

[Jays24]

Moreno or Groshan are 3B for Jays.

Gurriel will play LF, 1B and DH

 

I've learned to not to count on any prospect until they perform at the Major League level. They can easily get traded or flop. I actually had Martin penciled in on the 2022 Jays lol.

3 and 36ish?

[DigitalRock]

VLAD, buck with the horrible hr call

[Governator]

VLAAAAAD Holy

[havok24]

Wow that was demolished.

[Solaxys]

Vlad, the king of solo HRs!

 

44!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Effit]

Lol Buck

[EdwinsParrot]

that ball was killed

[Governator]

Seriously annhilated, someone get the speed off that one

[DigitalRock]

Lol Orioles

[Jonn]

3 and 36ish?

 

Sounds about right. Might be able to get 3/45. Can’t imagine he gets 4 years. 3 sounds right. But someone will overpay him slighty.

[Jonn]

Buck said 104 MPH. But it seemed much harder not that 104 is not hard lol. I’m just thinking 110+

[Governator]

That was a laser beam, no way it's 104 lol
