Well I mean all that stuff would be nice, but most of it is unrealistic.

 

1. Pujols is washed up, not worth it.

 

2. Good chance we sign Ray, but I think Scherzer is unrealistic. He’ll stay in LA.

 

3. Seager won’t sign to play 3B, he’ll get plenty of offers to play shortstop.

 

4. Grichuk has like 0 trade value, probably better to just hold onto him as a 4th OF/injury replacement.

 

5. Guerrero in LF is probably a bad idea, but I think it might be worth trying him at 3rd one more time. I agree his arm is wasted but unfortunately 1B might be the only position he can play.

 

I agree the Jays can beat the Yankees and Redsox. We were only 1 game behind them, with some better luck we would have finished ahead of both of them in the standings.

[Abomination]

Probably more realistic would be something like

 

1. Sign Kyle Seager

2. Sign Jon Gray

3. Sign Andrew Heaney or Carlos Rodon

4. Resign Kirby Yates

5. Sign Collin McHugh

6. Sign Michael Lorenzen

 

It's not perfect (would certainly love someone like Scherzer), but I think it would be a good team without signing any painful long-term contracts. If we needed an ace later (in addition to Berrios and hopefully Manoah), we could possibly trade for one at the deadline. Cavan and Seager add some lefties to the lineup, and Espinal looks like a perfect super utility guy. We'd have a pen full of guys that Mr. Bongos couldn't even screw up (since there'd basically be no wrong choice).

Ughhh...

Agreed with everything up to this.

[connorp]

I think Heaney has Bluejays written all over him.

[jaysguy44]

How drunk are you?

[Dick_Pole]

Ughhh...

 

Agreed with everything up to and including this.

Wrong

 

1. Sign Carlos Correa

2. Sign Max Scherzer

3. Trade Tim Mayza for Ronald Acuna

4. Sign Marcus Semien

5. Sign Robbie Ray

6. Sign Matt Chapman

7. Sign Mike Trout

8. Sign Mookie Betts

 

How the FO hasn't figured this out yet, I'll never know.

How the hell are you not a current MLB GM? This is a blueprint on how to win the WS! Several very savvy moves.... especially trading Mayza for Acuna! Gotta sell high on Mayza whilst Acuna is on the DL.

[Stangstag]

Wrong

 

1. Sign Carlos Correa

2. Sign Max Scherzer

7. Sign Mike Trout

8. Sign Mookie Betts

How much do you think Mike Trout gets in free agency? Maybe something like 5 years 180 million? He's a bit better than Springer so he'll definitely cost more than him I think

What would the lineup be? If you move Guerrero to lf then I guess Pujols is 1b (not DH) and Kirk can be DH

 

Lineup could be as follow (with projections from a proprietary system in my brain, but I bet they are close to the real projections)

 

Nice lineup except Pujols sucks. Why not Matt Olson if moving Guerrero to lf?

 

ss Bichette .300 .350 .500

3b Seager .300 .360 .480

1b Pujols .230 .275 .375

lf Guerrero .305 .390 .590

cf Hernandez .260 .320 .480

rf Gurriel .280 .320 .480

dh Kirk .280 .370 .460

2b Biggio/Espinal .260 .340 .410

c Jansen .240 .300 .450

I forgot Springer... so more like this.. so why do you want Pujols anyway? He is 48 years old and obese and can't hit anymore. Guerrero isn't really going to be moved to lf.. I don't think. But OK say it happened. Need Matt Olson, not Pujols. Kirk/Martinez/ for Matt Olson?

 

cf Springer .260 .360 ..520

ss Bichette .300 .350 .500

lf Guerrero .305 .390 .590

3b Seager .300 .360 .480

1b Pujols .230 .255 .365 (or Matt Olson .270 .350 .510)

rf Hernandez .260 .320 .480
