  1. At this point, he's probably a bench guy. Basically no different from Goins or Barney.
  2. It would be nice if we'd stop taking catchers though.
  3. It probably will be him regardless, but we could also move Pearce to 2nd and call up Smith Jr or something.
  4. Casilla is available (or possibly Holland if someone blows me away).
  5. He leads the Jays in career WAR as a Jay. I think I'd probably put Tony Fernandez ahead of him though. Not that he comes close to making the list, but Roger Clemens put up 18.9 WAR for us in 2 seasons lol.
  6. When they signed him to the contract, he was basically almost Donaldson with the bat and glove, but playing SS. Putting up 5+ WAR a season. He produced another 3 similar seasons after signing it too.
  7. That's about the closest I've seen Morales to saying something about a call. That was quite a look lol.
  8. No. Happ threw a pitch he thought was a strike, started to walk off the mound. Angel called it a ball, then started to stare at Happ while Happ appeared to keep his mouth shut, and started saying what do you want, and get back on the mound.
  9. Far too small a sample size to even try to project that to future performance (which if you can't do, makes it useless in practical terms). Even the sample sizes for what I mentioned are far too small to really be useful in general, but they do hint at something that may be worth exploring in conjunction with Goins statements on approach.
  10. Depending whether they mean position player by infielder, or all people playing on the infield, it could be Stephen Pryor, Josh Vitters, Pastornicky. Pastornicky is my best guess.
  11. He came up in 2010.
  12. I'm not convinced he'll be a star, but I think he'll be a solid regular. I feel right now like his hype is greater than his actual value will be.
  13. Honestly, I kinda like it for you. Brinson would be tough to give up, but the others all have significant risk of busting imo (at least in a fantasy sense). I'm not completely sold that Godley is really this good, but even if he settles in to an upper 3's ERA range, you probably don't regret the trade at all.
  14. I agree, but his comments suggest otherwise.
  15. I don't think they would do that, out of fear that it would bite them in the ass within the division. I don't think we would take on the ugly contract in addition to the health concerns.
  16. And that's why they've essentially wasted the amazing gift that was Trout.
  17. It's all SSS, but Goins has some really interesting career numbers. He's talked about a different approach with RISP. Career with no one on, he has a 50 wRC+, runners on 70, risp 82. Now look at his spray chart. Opposite field 118 wRC+, center 92, pull 52. Talk about him being better with RISP compared to other players may be a bit silly, but I think there's some foundation to suggest that he himself is a much better hitter with guys on. Now if we could just get him to stop trying to pull the ball at all
  18. I'd hardly say he's killing it. I would much rather see him in the outfield than Carrera though.
  19. You knew someone was gonna take Tebow in the draft.
  20. Gibby is awesome lol. That's a really nice job someone did of scrubbing that audio though.
  21. Ultimately he has to follow what management wants, and they seem to have made it pretty clear they don't plan on rebuilding. I'm not even sure he CAN give it much consideration, even though I'm sure he'd love to.
  22. Not at SS, at least not with the errors he's producing atm.
  23. Highly doubt Stroman would be traded, unless the package contained enough MLB ready talent to still be competitive next year as well. Maybe you do something like Stroman, Liriano, Bautista for Verdugo, Alvarez, something, and then pick up Verlander, dunno. We don't have the pitching depth to trade Stroman or Sanchez otherwise though. There isn't much on the market this offseason either, unless you feel really good about signing Otani. I wonder what the Dodgers would pay for Happ? He'd seem like a pretty good fit for them actually. Throw in Liriano too, who could move to the pen if necessary when Kershaw returns. Sonny Gray seems like an obvious possibility for the Dodgers, and Verdugo and Alvarez is probably about right.
  24. Yeah, but a ~24 year old reliever who has thrown like 5 innings above high A with some inconsistent command seems like a rather light return. He has gotten good results, but still. That's the type of return I'd expect for Liriano or Estrada right now.
