Bad weather tomorrow...delaying the game not a bad thing for the Jays. A lengthy delay after the game starts not good for the Jays. If there were a 2 hour delay after the say 2nd inning. Who do you bring out? Dickey?

A club's Active List (25-man roster) must be submitted to the MLB Commissioner prior to the start of each post-season series (LDS, LCS, and World Series). A club's Active List can be changed (tweaked) prior to the start of each series (WC, LDS, LCS, and WS) 1. A player who received a Prohibited Substance Suspension prior to the start of Spring Training, during Spring Training, during the regular season, or during a post-season series (Wild Card, LDS, LCS, or World Series), is ineligible to play in any MLB or minor league post-season game(s) or series in that season, even if the player has completed serving the suspension. 2. All other players on a club's MLB Reserve List (40-man roster), MLB 60-day DL, or Military List prior to midnight (Eastern) on August 31st are automatically eligible to be included on a post-season Active List (25-man roster). 3. A player must remain on his club's MLB Reserve List, MLB 60-day DL, and/or Military List continously throughout the remainder of the MLB regular season and post-season in order to be automatically eligible to be included on a post-season Active List (25-man roster). If a player is sent outright to the minors after midnight (Eastern) on August 31st, he is no longer automatically eligible to be included on a post-season Active List (25-man roster). 4. A player on an MLB club's Disabled List (7-day, 15-day, or 60-day), Bereavement List, Family Medical Emergency List, or Paternity List is eligible to be included on a post-season Active List only after spending the minimum number of days required to be served by a player on that list. 5. A post-season eligible player who is injured during a post-season series (LDS, LCS, or World Series) can (with the approval of the MLB Commssioner) be replaced during the series by another player, but the injured player is ineligible to be reinstated to his club's Active List (25-man roster) for the balance of that series and the next series (LCS or World Series). Also, a pitcher must replace a pitcher and a position player must replace a position player. However, it is NOT necessary for a catcher to replace a catcher, an infielder to replace an infielder, or an outfielder to replace an outfielder. 6. Any player on the Disqualified List, Ineligible List, Voluntary Retired List, or Restricted List as of midnight (Eastern) on August 31st or who is placed on the Disqualified List, Ineligible List, Voluntary Retired List, or Restricted Lisi anytime after midnight (Eastern) on August 31st is ineligible to be included on a post-season Active List that season. 7. An injured post-season eligible player can (with the approval of the MLB Commissioner) be replaced on his club's LDS, LCS, or World Series Active List by a player who was on an Active List, Reserve List, 60-day DL, or Military List of a minor league affiliate from that organization prior to midnight (Eastern) on August 31st, or by a player who was on the club's MLB Reserve List (40-man roster), MLB 60-day DL, or Military List prior to midnight (Eastern) on August 31st but who was subsequently sent outright to the minors. The minor league player must remain on an Active List, Reserve List, 60-day DL, or Military List of a minor league affiliate from that organization continously throughout the remainder of the MLB regular season and post-season in order to be eligible to replace an injured post-season eligible player. 8. A minor league player who replaces an injured post-season eligible player must have his contracted selected and be placed on the club's MLB Reserve List (40-man roster) before he can be placed on the club's post-season Active Roster, and a minor league player cannot replace a post-season eligible player on the club's MLB 40-man roster if the replaced player is on the 60-day DL and the disabled player has not served at least 60 days on the DL. (A different player would have to be removed from the club's MLB 40-man roster to make room for the minor leaguer).

If I get a trade done with Gibbers I can give you both a bad catcher and a bad SS

Pretty sure he said in this article he has. His annoyance was not as much the bat flip as the reactions to every pitch from the OF, Dugout, Batters box, base path etc.

Tell Gibbers to get on my offer and you have Wellie.

Their Oscar Taveras projections seem to be spot on though. I'd also like to point out that Collabello and Gallo are projected for similar numbers next year, don't let 10 years age difference get between you and having a guy with Joey Gallo'esk power.

1 year reduces the risk cost by so much though.

nah I want to see deGrom vs. Cueto in a loser shaves their head match-up.

Yeah he was pretty good in the 2011 ALCS

I didn't know we were creating team mission statements for this season.

I think they trade for one, and junk heap about 5 or 6 and hope one sticks. Throw the rest back or into the pen.

I laugh at all the league members intention to procreate

1. Isn't he already older than North for his championship year? 2. GD will murder Boxy

I think Carrasco gets traded for Puig. Makes so much sense for both teams. Cleveland has a huge RF hole and some pitching depth. LAD has platoon options to replace most of Puig's value. The money is almost the same Puig 3 years $24M, Carrasco 3 Years $19M with two sliding scale options.

The bandwagon are their market though. The "I'm going so I can post pictures saying I was there" crowd is gone

that was just having fun with fans that had been on the pen all game. Jose did the same thing when he pretended to throw the ball into the fans on the road. Only a few douches ripped him for that one.

He also said that it wasn't the bat flip really it was more the reactions to every single pitch. I've played with those types, and against, I can see where he comes from on it. I've talked about the racial overtones of this stuff (at least from fans and media...don't know about players). Donaldson reacts to a lot of things, says things in the media and gets called "a gamer", "intense" or "a bulldog", in general the same for Bryce Harper (although he gets called out for the "he hasn't been around long enough" bs). Carlos Gomez and Bautista react to things and they get called "unlikable", "douches" or "too emotional". I do it too...I like my white players to play hard like there is no tomorrow, and I like my visible minorities to quietly lead like Cutch. I'm obviously a racist.

and $94M going to Cleveland? And them dealing Kipnis for a boatload...that might happen

I like the honesty. You don't see enough of that in sport today.

They will be $25 at game time.

How did Chicago do the bleachers for the playoffs? Can't still be first come first serve.

Again...now think if the Jays Pen starts the year like they did this year? Either option they have to acquire solid depth IMO. Too me the option is 140ish IP starter or closer. Long term I know what's best for the Jays but 2016, becoming 2013 really hurts all the momentum gained this year. Not saying they have to do all their moves based on casuals and ticket sales, but it has to be a thought. Nice timing as Fangraphs did an article on Osuna and aging curves of relievers. So great for him that they couldn't even find a true age comp. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/roberto-osuna-and-the-aging-curve-for-young-relievers/

He spelled out sixty...probably best to replace him now

many of us have been interacting for 10 years it was bound to happen, and I started old. Happy Birthday Dinger!

One of the board members skin over a real doll...yes it does.
