f*** yeah BR! WS 2022 here we come
-
But when he walks in the room, has his dick already been in it for the last 10 minutes?
-
I need to change my f***in pants WOWEEE
-
My heart is pounding
-
f*** me, give my that sweet Cuban bat
-
Poor kid, I wouldn't want to get drafted by the Orioles either.
-
Darin Erstad comps? The names sound similar
-
I could not be less interested in that
-
I'm guessing Cuban.
-
Ed Howard with the Adam Jones comps for sure
-
Who's ready for some racially influenced comps???
-
TINSTAAP Having said that, I'm okay with the Meyer pick. His college K rate matches the stuff. I like.
-
I would argue Hoffman was an upside play, same with Tyler Beede, Jacob Anderson (RIP GD) and Kevin Comer DJ Davis was an upside play that was a total bust
-
I just looked back at that 2016 draft, wow. Lots of those hindsight selections are absolutely gag inducing.
-
There was a lot of hype before that year I remember. That lineup was stacked. You're right, the starting rotation lacked depth, but after the previous years Chacin and Towers had, everyone thought the rotation was gonna be pretty great too.

Jomboy Media is a great YT channel. His reviews are pretty entertaining.

General 2020 Blue Jays Discussion Thread
Captain Adama replied to Bobthe4th's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Just a beautiful video from a channel that everyone should be subscribed to. -
All of these bolded points are either not quite true or very wrong. Puig's contact rates and swing rates, both inside and outside the strike zone all around his career averages and there's nothing that indicates those skills are deteriorating. This translates to his K and walk rates very similar to his career averages as well. There's literally nothing concerning regarding his offensive profile with the bat. His baserunning and fielding were not great in recent years, but even then, his UZR rating was only slightly below average. This whole point being, if Puig is available in the neighbourhood of 10 million/year, there's absolutely no reason the Jays shouldn't pick him up.

No, that would not be applying the same logic at all. Firstly, Panik projects to be at least 1 win worse than Puig in 2019, after being 3.6 wins worse than Puig in the last 3 years Secondly: Panik does only 1.5 things well, he makes contact at an elite rate and has decent plate discipline, unlike Puig who has a whole array of skills to fall back on. Thirdly, the second point doesn't matter, because Panik has shown a demonstrable decline in power, something that he was only average at best at 4 years ago. So having a good contact rate doesn't mean jack when he has a barrell rate and exit velocity in the bottom 20th percentile in baseball.

That's why my house was shaking earlier.

Jays Farm: Sleeper, Bust, New Legit Guy
Captain Adama replied to P2F's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I just want to say I take full credit for predicting the Kevin Smith bust last year. Sleeper: Otto Lopez finally taps into his power and wrecks High A and Double A Bust Riley Adams, he's the catching version of Conine. Adam Kloffenstein is my next guess. Legit New Guy I guess Joey Murray? The guy has quietly wrecked every level of the minors he's been at with a decent age/level ratio. I guess legit new guy means he'll probably make a few top 100 lists this year -
2020 Organizational Review: Top 50 Blue Jays Prospects
Captain Adama replied to P2F's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Ehh, I guess Manoah could also be defensible, but he's also a pitching prospect, in the low minors, college draftee be damned. I understand why he's ranked behind Kirk Moreno's K/BB ratio isn't nearly as good as Kirk's and the defense will probably be a lot closer if Alejandro lost some f***ing weight. -
2020 Organizational Review: Top 50 Blue Jays Prospects
Captain Adama replied to P2F's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Who would you have ahead of him? The only guy I could see being defensible is Martinez, but Kirk had a better offensive season in a higher level. -
Jesus Christ, that's disgusting. The weight, not the ratio.
-
Yeah, Manfred then has the f***ing nerve to warn teams about throwing at players that there will be consequences if they do so. Maybe he should've handed out punishments proactively, instead of dealing with s*** when it inevitably happens
