    he's a horrible bat so you cant use him as a pinch hitter. he's a horrible bat so you dont want him getting 3-4 AB per game He's got a horrible success rate for stealing so he's a bad risk as a pinch runner where would you use him? He's not the 4th best OF defender the jays have. He's fast but falls asleep way too often.

    not getting Martin 2 years ago was a huge mistake. My only question is how many more games his body will hold up. getting him might take a deal for to many years.

    how do you "properly" use a one dimensional player who falls asleep and gets picked off trying to do the one thing he is supposed to be good at?

    Gose is not even a viable bench player. he has speed to burn, but he makes Rajai Davis look like a rocket scientist. He was a prospect a couple years ago and now he's been around almost long enough to be called a bust. It's not a skill problem, it's all down to a lack of smarts and it's not getting better. He might not even make the team this year and he is out of options. He has zero trade value. Most teams have better options in their minor league systems, as do the jays.

    unless you can get Gose a brain transplant he's a waste of space
  6. o2cui2i
    Gose will spend his entire existence in the proverbial Left field. physically he's elite but he's short bus special and there is no getting around that.... you just cant fix stupid.

    I think I could get some agreement from peeps here that Fenway smells more like piss than any s***** strip club's urinals, at closing time, than any other stadium ever made.

    Joey bats is looking at this right now whining about that one dot all by itself. he knew it was a ball! lol
  13. o2cui2i
    thanks... that's a better reference. side note: amazing how many walks the jays pitchers have been giving up the last couple of years despite this. I guess it's hard to take advantage of a bigger strike zone with JPA waving at every pitch and Navarro not being able to see or reach down to his feet for years. why did they trade Kratz again? oh yeah, so Dickey could keep his pet monkey.
  14. o2cui2i
    is this an anomaly just comparing two cherry picked years or is it something they have noticed shift slowly over time? the post only shows two years... it would be more interesting if it showed each year over the 5.

    this is just AA taking a flyer on a guy and this time it's a good move. Hopefully AA has a better off season this year.
  16. o2cui2i
    Rasmus most likely never coming back to TO. Cabrera probably gets a QA and declines. I hope that Pompey has a monster fall and maybe plays some winter league. He could be a better option for CF. not quite as fast as Gose, but smarter player and hits better than Gose from both sides.
  17. o2cui2i
    half a bucket of Double Bubble
  18. o2cui2i
    the Rays probably will.
  19. o2cui2i
    it would be nice to see Pompey and Jimenez get regular starts for the jays. That would mean AA having to tell Dickey that his pet has to be put down and possibly Gose platooning with Pillar in RF. That would let the jays have some solid money to go out and get a 2nd baseman.
  20. o2cui2i
    yupp....
  21. o2cui2i
    sour grapes.... no baseball tonight and our team isn't playing anyways. lol it's also 2:35am....
  22. o2cui2i
    LOL... no! but I dare you. making a team is not about boxing in a couple of stars with replacement guys. Jays have too many guys in their lineup who dont play smart enough to make them viable. every team has fringe players, but the jays fringe players get way to many AB and many of them are AAAA players. we went into 2014 with literally no bench. We didn't even have guys in the minors who were developed well enough to step in and play. we have had a problem with 2nd since Hill's fall off year. Plenty of time to draft and develop a proper 2nd baseman. yet we started with Goins?? 67 games with a WAR -0.6. surely they should have been able to draft and they had 3 years to get a guy who could be at least a 1 or 2 war 2nd baseman? they didn't have to have a superstar, but someone who at least knew where the bat rack is located? there are problems in the decision making and development process.
  23. o2cui2i
    no, but it sure makes it easier to do. the reason this is even a subject is because the Cards keep making long playoff runs and most of their team is home grown players. They have an amazing team and spend a lot less than other teams. not sure about this year, but last year 17 of their 25 man roster were players they drafted. edit: we have seen AA and his trades. So glad to have Reyes eating up so much payroll for another 3 years.
  24. o2cui2i
    who was the last top position player the jays got from draft to MLB roster. Hinske? ROY and then gone...
  25. o2cui2i
    discipline... since this thread is about the cards, we can look at how they develop and play the game. Guys who dont play the cards way are not there long. We have Rasmus because he couldn't play Cards ball. you have to instill a mentality of doing things right from day 1. Jays players as a whole are horrible with fundamental baseball. which base to throw to, when to steal, when to take a pitch, when to shut up and go sit down after a strike out. good teams play smart baseball and there are no weak spots mentally. I'd say the jays dont fall into that category. I'm not talking about having bad games or about the occasional mental fart. knowing what to do and when to do it.... that is how you start. gump Lind Gose.... the list doesn't stop there
