I care if the Jays win tonight...any other night I am exactly the same in a win or a loss. -
A Jax and Carlos Gomez are the two reasons that I like to think that I might be wrong on Gose. They both were guys I hated and even thought had overrated D I still hate Gomez (mostly because I have traded him away in several pools but A-Jax is a guy that I truly believe in moving forward

The Official DFA Emilio Bonifacio Thread
TheHurl replied to eastcoastjaysfan's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
so many liked him in the off season. There were a bunch of threads like this. http://www.forums.mlb.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?nav=messages&webtag=ml-bluejays&tid=87239 -
he's got a torn ACL so it's not that great of a signing.

Blue jays signed Clinton Hollon $467,280.

Both Tellez and Brentz and let Bickford walking getting us the 10th pick again next year sounds like a better plan for me. -
I hope they have a back up plan if Bickford walks. I'd actually rather see them get Brentz and one of the others over PB anyway.
-
MDR is an entertaining guy, I think we should give him a 5 year extension
-
Jackass!

Jays are great betting value tonight being an underdog at home against a team 4 games under .500 on the road. I put $25 (paying $55) on them and $50 on them +1.5 runs (paying $85). Also have $20 on Minnesota over the Yankees tomorrow (paying $55 amazing value on Kyle Gibson).

Got a text from Jaysblue. He takes Bautista.

Blue jays signed Clinton Hollon $467,280.
TheHurl replied to Angrioter's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
being such an exact amount I'm guessing that they know exactly what they need for Bickford. -
The good news is that the package going back just went down. Delabar gets it done, Cecil gets us Aaron Crow also
-
a little insurance against a Cruz suspension?
-
Assets are assets though. Marlins turned Escobar into a 24 year 2B who is outperforming Boni. Hech's D isn't showing well in the metrics but Didi Gregorius got Trevor Bauer in trade, so no one knows what Hech's true value is if he ever truly becomes a great defensive SS. Marisnick has put himself into top 40 prospect range, and Nicolino isn't getting the K's but he's still getting weak contact and GB's. He's done little to hurt his status as a fringe top 100 guy.
-
anyone think they'd attempt to trade one of the current offensive players and improve the pitching? It's a horrible baseball model but it wouldn't surprise me. Edwin is probably a top 25 trade chip these days, is less popular than Bautista (for some reason, hell he's less popular than Muni, Lawrie and JPA among the casual fans). In the end I think all the contending teams this year would be ecstatic if the Jays landed Lee. To keep it in perspective the Phillies are 9 back of the division and 8 back of the wild card, Jays are 9.5 back of division and 5.5 back of wildcard yet we think the Phillies should be selling and the Jays buying. By the weekend there could be no difference between them.
-
It's odd usually perception is that teams that bring up their prospects are non contending, Jays fans seem to be clamoring for Stroman to keep that slight hope alive. I really don't care about his service time or anything else at this point, I'd love to see him up here as a fan. I think expectations will be that of a saviour which I don't think will happen.
-
I don't listen to the Fan at all but a few people have posted a couple of quick interviews he's done. Then of course when the streak was happening he was right back there in front of the cameras. Right now the attendance increases are there and I can tell you that I tried to get a September tickets for the Fan Appreciation game and I got all the way over in 507 cause I wanted front row. The ticket sales are still going well so I think AA is just going to sit back and say as little as possible.
-
actually the internal word is "we're good with a .270 OBP catcher as long as he works hard at his defense". The fact that they "see" something in him is the most concerning thing about the org.
-
Not entirely true but the fact that they wanted a veteran back up and the fact that AJ and TdA both had to be on the 40 man (and going back to last year Carlos Perez) was a factor that someone had to move. Nessy will probably be the next victim of the international rushing to the 40 man as he has to be added next year I believe. He's not worth taking up a 40 man spot, so he'll be exposed or dealt IMO.
-
Can't believe I forgot Thigpen. I think there were a couple of others I'm missing too
-
That's the I need a much bigger purse cause my little bro is getting $1.8M...or it's Angelo's purse.
-
Jeff Hearron, Jeff DeWillis, Matt Stark, Randy Knorr, Sandy Martinez, Josh Phelps, Kevin Cash, Guillermo Quiroz, Robinson Diaz and JP Arencibia. That's without mentioning Delgado and Sprague.
-
did this thread just anoint AJJ as the new COTF?
-
TdA had a setback again.
-
I never thought it was settled. I'd say that I still like HJM's ability to hit lefties and righties equally. Gose will require a platoon IMO or take his bad AB's against lefties. I wonder if the new debate should be HJM vs. Yelich. Honestly I still might give HJM the nod. If I'm Miami I'm getting Profar and one of the young pitchers for Stanton and go with HJM in CF, Ozuna in RF and Yelich in LF, with Ruggiano on the bench next season.
