I feel like people forget sometimes that Yelich isn't even 23 until December and still has a 117 wRC+ through almost 750 PA. Kid can hit. Wouldn't be surprising to see him have a good run of J.D. Drew type seasons.
-
I think I've always liked Yelich more than most. 0.340 wOBA guy and I think there's untapped power there. Six-year age gap plus Cargo's f***ed up knee makes it pretty close for me.
-
Ouch. I don't think I'd trade Yelich for him at this point.
-
Cargo done for the year.
-
Why is everyone handing Pillar a roster spot? He's 26 before the season starts, and our best guess is that he's about neutral defensively and on the bases and probably 20% below average offensively.

"Five keys for Blue Jays to make postseason"
BTS replied to JaysFan4Ever's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
That's a 110 win pace lol. 88 wins should do it, but that's still 25-40 and a 101 win pace. -
OMG yes
-
Looks like the Mets are going to let Syndergaard rot in Vegas all year. They really should get him out of that mess and get some starts in the majors ROS.
-
I've become more of an IL kind of guy as I've gotten older and become less inclined to argue with people on the internet. Would recommend.
-
Would have been nice if they'd found a way to land Bourjos or Gentry last year. A Gentry/Gose platoon would have been outstanding, and freed the team up to trade Rasmus at his peak value.
-
North has the ability to disagree without being a condescending asshat. I don't think I've ever been frustrated talking to him.
-
Why would you debate semantics with Moogy?
-
Anything outside the league threads has been unreadable for awhile now.
-
I didn't expect a high post volume, but it shouldn't have been derailed to the point of being locked either. It's not like there have been many active discussions lately.
-
So my thread linking an article that at least some people might find interesting gets sidetracked and locked. Awesome forum.
-
Who the hell is Zack Walters?
-
So who's getting dropped for Bourn?
-
Yeah, this thread is awful.
-
You're just jealous that you have no internet friends.
-
I think at this point he's probably gone anyway, but Rasmus has value to major league team. I don't know if it's at a corner, in center, in a platoon, or as a 4th OF, but he definitely brings a skill set that most teams could use. I see him going somewhere like Oakland that will extract every ounce of value from him.
-
Replied to your reply.
-
I don't think they should retain him. He's a league-average player who gets all his value from his bat, and players like that get overpaid. He'll probably command something like 3/40 on the market, and you should be able to add 2 wins for cheaper than that. Someone like Nori Aoki probably signs for 3/20, will give you the same number of wins, and you keep the comp pick when Melky rejects arb.
-
They really can't afford to have any of Reyes/Bautista/Edwin decline. Reyes for the reasons you state, and the other two because they carry the offense on their backs and replacing bats like that is really expensive when nobody in the system projects as an impact position player. Problem is, the group is now well into their 30s, and it's only a matter of time at this point.
-
I guess the question is where they go from here. Bautista is 34 next year. Edwin 32. Reyes 32. Lind 31. Dickey 40. Buehrle 36. Outside of Stroman, Hutchison, and Lawrie, the players that will be expected to contribute are really old. Not only is there no reason to expect the injuries to happen with less frequency, but some of there guys are going to start declining hard from what they currently are.

If I IL you can I still see PMs?
