The Prospect/Minor Leagues Thread
Abomination replied to theblujay's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Jays signed Erick Hurtado. 19 year old lefty with decent size. Can't find too much on him, but reports from 2012 suggest he's very raw and can touch low 90's. -
Can the Jays swap training staffs with the Raps?
-
Lol, anyone who wants to become popular just needs to look at Turkaglu ... and do the opposite. The guy is a master.
-
This might be a really high scoring game.

Jack Morris Leaving for Twins Radio
Abomination replied to NorthOf49's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
We really aren't a fit for Scott right now imo, but Jeff Baker would be a perfect right-handed super utility kind of guy who could also platoon with Lind. -
Jack Morris Leaving for Twins Radio
Abomination replied to NorthOf49's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I don't think there really is a consensus regarding pitching. I think more people are leaning towards Ubaldo with some other interest in Niemann and Capuano as well, but there's lots of opinions. On the hitting side, I think almost everyone wants Baker. Certainly could live with Johnson though. -
Lol. "Who is this guy??? AA, other teams are picking up irrelevant scrubs, why aren't you signing them???"
-
I definitely agree regarding the defense and bench. I really do think they'll have difficulty scoring though.
-
That's true, but they are relying on much stronger numbers from their pitchers than the other teams in the division have to rely on due to their weak offense. I agree with you though that I would put the Rays and Red Sox as the two favorites atm.
-
If things continue to go well, perhaps. They've been freakishly healthy with the young players coming up though. Maybe that's something they're doing or the players they are selecting, or maybe they have horseshoes up their asses. I don't know. That offense is likely going to be very light though, and they are relying on a lot of young pitchers that they have to hope don't regress a bit (especially as the workloads increase for 3 of them).
-
Realistically, I think every single team in this division has some big question marks right now. I don't think we should be surprised by any of the teams having things click and winning the division, or any of the teams self destructing and finishing last.
-
I think it's the 3rd time in under a year the O's have tried to pull that now, with trying to leverage the player to accept less money after they magically find some miniscule problem (and of course regardless of how big it is the perception has to affect the player in other negotiations). Agents should be avoiding them like the plague right now.
-
Interesting. I think I actually like Polanco's offense slightly better from a fantasy perspective than Soler's, especially when you factor in that he should qualify in CF and is closer to the bigs. Can't really go wrong with either though.
-
The problem is, they'd need some ownership behind them like Rogers to make it work I think. The only ones that might fit that bill would be Bell (TSN) who could be desperate for new sports content as they are being completely shoved out that market atm. Any other group would be taking a huge risk since if Bell ended up deciding to get rid of their sports programming, there'd be no competition for viewing rights to the games. The Jays would also have to receive a compensation package since Mtl is now part of our territory.
-
They seem pretty similar to me (ie, below average), except for Lind somehow being a master at digging throws out of the dirt. Edwin might have slightly better range. (this is without looking up the metrics)
-
Good God that Penguins PP is insane. Crosby, Malkin, Kunitz, Neal, and Letang.

We have to come up with an appropriate board punishment for this -
Toronto Blue Jays: 2014 ZiPS Projections
Abomination replied to Angrioter's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I think we all want Baker, but he doesn't solve the 3 man bench problem since he can't play center or short. Still want him badly though. -
Countdown until they find "issues" with his medicals lol
-
Isn't he working in the Rays front office?
-
I think it's been presumed for a while that AA will eventually take over for Beeston. I would expect that to happen when the next rebuild does, whether that's 6 months from now or 3 years.
-
He went to the Red Sox apparently. 750k major league deal with incentives up to 6M
-
Hmmm, hadn't been there in a long time. Thanks.
-
B-R has better data on players in the minors, including some splits.

Use Fangraphs.
