MDR! While I really though we should get rid of him early on, he's been valuable to have.
-
Wow, I don't think I've ever seen Reyes pissed off before.
-
A playoff series between us and Seattle. All the games would basically be home games. Great start by Dickey though, we need more of those.
-
Interesting about the knuckleball though. You'd have to think that it might actually be more important for a knuckler to get on top of the ball than a regular pitcher, but I hadn't thought about it before.
-
Poor Seattle. That's twice the umps have screwed them this inning. I guess we do have home field advantage!
-
All 3 games going on right now have the bases loaded ...
-
I don't think so, but it does look like it's barking a little. They may have to give him a day or two off here or there.
-
Wow, Reyes got away with one there.
-
You have to think they're going to try to pitch around Reyes here.
-
Lawrie is good again!
-
Thankfully that effect is reversible by putting the troll on the ignore list
-
Lol at CB Buckner. At least he isn't biased ... he just sucks.
-
Kendrick carried off the field with a knee injury.
-
Rajai got robbed. That was smoked.
-
If he keeps up this patient (or at least not amped) approach, they I'd say he's already breaking out. He could have a big 2 final months this year.
-
I really really hate when home plate umps call check swings.
-
Did they also make fun of their own base running, because it just cost them a run.
-
Spam message. Don't click on the links, just report it.
-
The Jays should seriously get 1/2 the gate when they're in Seattle ...
-
Looks like Iglesias might be hurt.
-
Oh yeah. Since it was in Chicago, the pitcher probably would have gotten a standing ovation if he hit him...
-
Man I thought Jose got enough of that. Either he hit it on the end of the bat or the ball isn't carrying at all.

Davidi: Payroll will be at least $140 M next year
Abomination replied to yudarvish's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Obviously he shouldn't be playing center, but even in right he's probably only average defensively right now (maybe a small tick above), and that's going to decline as he ages. On the hitting side, he's not a big power guy, so as his bat slows the power he has will likely disappear which will decimate his OPS. His eye will still make him a decent player, but not at the money he'll command. That's just my opinion. He could re-invent himself or buck those expections, you never know, you just can't count on it happening. I believe according to the 2013 pitch framing study, McCann has saved the most runs of any catcher between 2008 and 2013. Further, he's been rated as a positive defender in every year since 2008. He's 6th in WAR for catchers this year in spite of missing part of the year and only having 2/3 of the games of other guys on the list. He's 4th in WAR and 3rd I believe in defense among all catchers since 2010 behind only Wieters and Yadier. -
PLEASE stop feeding the troll.

Choo simply isn't happening. Between Boras and the kind of year he's putting up, he'll probably get something like 8/150. That's the kind of contract we need to avoid, and Choo isn't the kind of player that will likely age overly well.
