  1. I got a s*** storm for a comment like this.... lol
  2. no, I just dont think someone who takes four pages to explain a simple idea could ever figure out which end of the pen is used to sign the contract.
  3. the problem is that some people just have to pretend they know more even if they really dont. the same people who are whining about this signing would be whining if the Jays traded a top prospect to bring in Russell. 2016 almost all the contracts that the jays have today will be off the books. Jays need a couple more pieces this year and now have the money there to make a couple more moves to take a run this year without hurting them going forward. expect Melky or Aoki to be signed to play LF.
  4. Difference... Rogers has a budget of whatever dollar amount they decide and the money is already going to be there. they could afford to pay it up front if they wanted too and budget less in the future? They are shifting cost and have the money available.... and then we have you and the fact than you will NEVER have the money to buy a Porsche?
  5. that's ridiculous money
  6. fat Jonah or skinny Jonah?

    brutal leafs game... heads are gonna roll. question is which heads? at least the Jays signed Martin. lol
  8. this entire discussion could be irrelevant if Rogers has decided to have increased investment. Our farm looks healthy at this point and adding Dollars is cheaper and a better bet than trading talent. it's amazing that some of the people who bitched about the trades made 2 years ago because the Jays let talent go and now they are bitching because the the Jays spent money. I just dont have enough cheese to go with all of the whine.
  9. did anyone really think AA was going to be able to work this one out? Maybe the players can pass a hat? Get AA out on Young street with a tin can and "bring Russell home" sign?
  10. all of this can change if the jays make the playoffs. A playoff run has an amazing way of changing perception. Jays signed better FA after the 1985 season. It makes a huge difference in what players think. Interbrew did damage to the team's rep that still hasn't been repaired. They threw away the good reputation that Labatt had built up. Labatt was a big spender that put the jays in a position to attract anyone they wanted. Jays were one of the biggest payrolls in baseball when they went back to back, they also had 4 million fans a year and were a cash machine.
  11. there is nothing wrong with the $ amount Rogers is spending on the team.
  12. the perceived problem with the currency, the thought of border crossings and the fact that ownership during the Interbrew era were complete twats and now not winning for 20 years... it's a lot to swallow.
  13. what's the old saying... prospects are trading chips? I'm sure every time AA is on the phone the first thing he hears is "Stroman" I'm glad the Stro-show is still a jay. Sanchez too... I hope we hit April with both those guys still in the fold.
  14. according what most are saying Detroit's farm was absolutely shyte before this trade... how does it rank now that they traded one of the few guys who were rated marginally well? lol
  15. that goes to my point of Pillar and "who" in LF. they need a good 4th OF on the bench just in case and to give them a bat for pinch hitting late in games. this year we need to start with a min of 4 men on the bench and a 5th would be more acceptable. give Gibbons some options so he can actually show if he can manage.
  16. why are so many harsh on Pompey. he's a little older and has the baseball smarts to step in and play. if he had not broken his hand 2 years in a row he would probably have already made the team last year.
  17. can they keep Goins on the bench and have him play the 8th and 9th inning every other day so Reyes doesn't have to be on the field so much?
  18. this sounds really good. will be interesting to see how healthy and ready he is come april 1st. who is the forth outfielder now?? Jose in R, Pompey in CF, Pillar and who for LF?
  19. the Miami and Mets deals have soured me and AA has basically had his head up his ass since then? he really hasn't done anything since... gave away a catcher and signed one that is worse for a 2 year deal.... This has to be the last year for AA and Beeston. if the jays blow junks again this year there wont be much that would save their jobs. there.... a positive? lol
  20. does the jays front office know what "out of contention" means?
  21. both are correct.... Jays probably have the least money to offer so the jays would by default be his last choice.
  22. LOL dont think either would know how to do their part for that to happen.
  23. I'm sure he'll have a his public say on what he thinks needs to be done. Question is whether he says enough to have AA trade him for what he says. lol
  24. what's the over/under for how many games Lawrie will be in the lineup next year? where is he least likely to break?
