  3. Khris Davis has won his arbitration hearing against the Athletics, reports Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports (via Twitter). As a result, the Oakland left fielder/designated hitter will earn $5MM instead of the $4.65MM figure submitted by the team. Davis is represented by Octagon.

  11. You no longer ever lose first round picks, they're later round picks based on team payroll/revenue sharing status: Clubs signing a Free Agent subject to compensation will no longer forfeit a first round selection, but will be subject to the following: •A non-market disqualified Revenue Sharing Payee Club shall forfeit its third highest remaining selection in the next Rule 4 Draft. •A Luxury Tax offender shall forfeit its second-highest and fifth-highest remaining selections in the next Rule 4 Draft and shall have its International Signing Bonus Pool (described below) reduced by $1,000,000 in the next full Signing Period. •All other Clubs shall forfeit their second-highest remaining selection in the next Rule 4 Draft and shall have their International Signing Bonus Pool reduced by $500,000 in the next full Signing Bonus Period. http://www.forbes.com/sites/maurybrown/2016/11/30/breaking-down-mlbs-new-2017-21-collective-bargaining-agreement/2/#65c7e3e73d1f

  13. Agree Everyone thinks they signed Fowler knowing full well he would only cost their second round pick essentially They should have lost their 1st round pick in 2018 though I don't think the Astros should have been handed it Apparently 2M is the maximum allowable fine in MLB The draft pick cost should have been more
  14. Oh and we could still be paying for Jose Reyes instead of Tulo
  15. It was worth overpaying for Martin We needed a legit catcher something awful, and guys of his caliber don't hit free agency every year
  16. Damn, I'd love to go to that
  17. Guide to remaining free agent left-handers Blue Jays could pursue Ben Nicholson-Smith January 26, 2017, 12:23 PM http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/guide-remaining-free-agent-left-handers-blue-jays-pursue/ TORONTO – With just three weeks remaining before spring training, the Toronto Blue Jays are getting closer to completing their off-season shopping. In the last week they signed Jose Bautista and agreed to a minor-league contract with Jarrod Saltalamacchia, but there’s still one hole on the projected 2017 roster: left-handed relief. Along with a handful of other clubs, the Blue Jays continue exploring that segment of the free agent market in the hopes of adding to their bullpen. At this point, some quality options are still out there. Here’s a closer look at how they compare… JERRY BLEVINS Age: 33 2016 team: Mets 2016 stats: 2.79 ERA, 73 games, 42 innings, 15 walks, 52 strikeouts, 46% ground ball rate Average fastball velocity: 89.0 mph Potential suitors: Mets, Blue Jays, Giants, Indians, Marlins A true left-on-left specialist, Blevins appears poised to land a multi-year deal after excelling with the Mets in 2016. He generates strikeouts and has held left-handed batters to a .214/.266/.322 batting line over 10 big league seasons. He'll be pricey relative to other options here, but there's something to be said for obtaining an established lefty. The Blue Jays showed interest in Blevins as early as November, and the sides have stayed in touch. BOONE LOGAN Age: 32 2016 team: Rockies 2016 stats: 3.69 ERA, 66 games, 46.1 innings, 20 walks, 57 strikeouts, 49.5% ground ball rate Average fastball velocity: 93.1 mph Potential suitors: Mets, Blue Jays, Giants, Indians, Marlins Logan's an established left-hander with experience in the AL East, but there are a couple of concerns worth considering. He has averaged 4.0 walks per nine innings over the course of the last five years, for one. And immediately after signing his first multi-year free agent deal, a three-year, $16.5 million contract with Colorado, he promptly posted a 6.84 ERA. All of that said, he throws hard and has a long track record of success. Expect Logan to land a lucrative deal. For what it's worth, one executive suggested this month that Antonio Bastardo's two-year, $12 million contract could be a relevant comp for Logan and Blevins. TRAVIS WOOD Age: 29 2016 team: Cubs 2016 stats: 2.95 ERA, 77 games, 61 innings, 24 walks, 47 strikeouts, 37% ground ball rate Average fastball velocity: 90.5 mph Potential suitors: Padres, Nationals, Cubs, Blue Jays, Marlins In theory, Wood makes sense for the Blue Jays. Left-handers have hit just .206/.276/.316 against Wood during his career, so he's a potential fit as a matchup reliever. Plus, his experience as a starter adds versatility (he posted a 3.11 ERA in 200 innings during an All-Star 2013 season). That's the problem for Toronto, though. Industry observers expect Wood to seek a starting job, and the Blue Jays can't offer one. CRAIG BRESLOW Age: 36 2016 team: Marlins 2016 stats: 4.50 ERA, 15 games, 14 innings, 4 walks, 7 strikeouts, 29% ground ball rate Average fastball velocity: 89.5 mph Potential suitors: Blue Jays, Mets, Reds, Rockies, Indians, Giants A recent Breslow showcase drew the attention of a wide range of scouts. The Blue Jays are among the teams with interest in Breslow, who's looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2016 season by trying out a lower arm slot. Unlike the three pitchers above, he could conceivably be available on a non-guaranteed deal with incentives. ADDITIONAL CANDIDATES The free agent market also includes Charlie Furbush, Javier Lopez and J.P. Howell, all of whom have extensive MLB experience. Alternatively, teams could turn to the trade market, where Justin Wilson of the Tigers and Tony Watson of the Pirates are among the more intriguing options.
  18. And the Mike Trouts etc play like 4 innings and might catch 2 balls
  19. WILL Rogers Centre ever get to host it again I wonder??
  20. I spent 3 straight years predicting a 20 win season and a no-hitter for him Neither happened
