Blue Jays First Home Run Contest Thread

That may literally mean that KC has poached 3 guys on us this draft.
-
I don't mind this move. He's been decent down in AAA so far this year, and with the way the ball has been flying out of RC this year another ground ball pitcher can't be a bad thing. He's also given up 1 or less runs in 6 of his 9 starts this year, and one total in his last 3.
-
I wonder if we'll take Cal Quantrill with our pick next round? Seems to be around the right area to draft him, and I really like what I've read about him.
-
The list of who they are is linked from that page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canadians_by_net_worth

I'm perfectly okay with that too.
-
... and as they're talking about Shelby Miller and pitching on TV, he hits a home run in the actual game. edited to say... followed by Carpenter with a home run. Previous draft picks know when to hit them!
-
I think it's going to depend on how he finishes off the year. If he's lights out, we probably will be forced to let him walk. If he's good but not great, there may be the opportunity to resign him. If we're out of it at the deadline, we may be able to trade him for a bigger return than the picks would produce.
-
10th pick. We were 9th this year, but pushed down one due to someone being unsigned last year higher up. That of course assumes no one from higher this year goes unsigned.
-
I wonder if we'll get him signed under slot and trade for a competitive balance pick for someone who falls? Don't like the pick though with Shipley and McGuire still on the board.
-
I'd be okay if it's McGuire, but I don't know how you pass on Shipley here
-
Yes! One of Shipley or Meadows will be available for us!
-
Ball if off the board, first thing that went right for us!
-
If it's bad, then we can punt the pick to next year. It might? also give us a protected pick next year if we do want to sign someone like McCann.
-
Well, so far it's matching Law's last talent rankings, so this 5 pick should be Meadows if the trend continues.
-
I could have sworn his first time up he called it the 2000 first year player draft.
-
Poor Gray. Dropped out of the top 2 spots, AND he's going to have to pitch in Colorado.
-
I don't think he will, not with the 10th pick. If he was in the high teens or 20's I think there'd be a chance.
-
Everyone excited yet? Time to kick it up so we can be extra reactionary at pick 10.
-
1. Gray 2. Appel 3. Bryant 4. Moran 5. Stewart 6. Shipley 7. Meadows 8. Ball 9. Manaea 10. Frazier
-
He isn't hitting the home runs, but last month he did have an .821 ops and .460 slugging (along with 10 doubles). I'd really just like to see him dh for 2 weeks and let the legs heal, assuming we keep Lind and EE in the lineup during that time.
-
Outside of his terrible April, Melky has been fine offensively. We know his legs are an issue on defense. Why not keep EE at 3rd for another 2 weeks and DH Melky over that time, see if we can give the legs time to heal? I dislike having EE over there for too long, but for a short time period it might be well worth it.

Post your idea for getting steroids out of the game
Abomination replied to hummus's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
For one thing, they need the punishment to be different depending on the class of drug. Things like growth hormone should have a much stiffer penalty than someone accidentally taking the wrong cold medication or something. -
Since we have a pick high enough to get (hopefully) an impact player without the extra risk found later in the first round, we need to make it count rather than go after a late riser like Harvey imo. I just can't see AA doing that this year. If our pick was down around 20 or so (or unprotected), I could see him reaching for someone. If they're there, we need to take a Frazier/Meadows type or punt the pick to next year's stronger draft (hopefully messing with Boras in the process).
