I heard Spanky has a knee buckling curve, but only sits 45 these days
-
Easy call to just keep Skubal
-
I really think this is the kind of thing you don't worry about until the playoffs. Looks weird on opening day to have Berrios + Lauer in the pen and guys like Fisher and Fluharty in AAA, but these things tend to resolve themselves because pitchers are ticking bombs
-
Sounds like UCL repair is imminent
-
I wouldn’t do it, but I don’t think this reaction is fair. The padres just traded a clear top-10 prospect in baseball for him, and he’d return something similar if they move him
-
Hey guys, I've been doing a lot of thinking about the pen. Do you think Mason Miller could help the team? I hear the Padres are looking for starting pitching so Jose Berrios should be of interest. Maybe we add Nance and Nimmala? I wonder if they'd throw in Ethan Salas if we add Santander. Please let me know your thoughts.

Bo or Tucker Based On Their Projected Contracts?
BTS replied to Jays24's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
It's going to be telling to see what teams are in on Murakami. Apparently Ohtani had bad numbers against higher velo fastballs too before coming over. I read that there's so little velo over there that a lot of players struggle with 93-95 because they just don't see it very often, but then adjust when they get here and see that kind of velo all the time. I could see his market being anything between Pittsburgh getting him for like 60M or teams like LA and Boston in a 200M bidding war, depending on whether their respective nerds think they get him to make enough contact for the power to play. -
Bo or Tucker Based On Their Projected Contracts?
BTS replied to Jays24's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I think Tucker is going to be a better player than Bo in the coming years by a meaningful amount, so I don't really care how different the contract terms look -
The most Mets thing ever would be trading a prime future first ballot HoFer for no reason
-
Guessing Bruihl or Clase. Both are out of options and neither is likely to make the team.
-
Kind of an odd move after the Semien trade. I guess he'll be the full-time DH
-
I'm guessing it's Bruihl DFA'd to make room? I've never seen a pitching staff this deep in Toronto. It's insane: Hoffman Varland Rogers Garcia (if healthy) Nance (no options) Lauer Berrios Are probably locks if healthy. Then you have Miles who was picked in the Rule V. Bruihl is out of options. Then in AAA you have: Fluharty, Little, Fisher, Tiedemann etc... Like, the AAA crew is better than some teams' MLB pen. They can flip an arm or two for actual prospects if they want, because they don't actually have room for all of the pitching.
-
More than I thought he’d get but who gives a f***
-
Mark Shapiro is the best thing to happen to this franchise in actual decades. Great to have him stick around.

BTW, Fangraphs correctly has Gimenez at a 19.37M AAV for CBT purposes https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/payroll/blue-jays

How does a major league GM just not a address a glaring hole on a team built to win? They've received 3 fWAR combined from the shortstop position since the start of 2023, and 1.9 of that was Arcia in 2023. The solution this year seems to be Mauricio Dubon? Like, what are they even doing?
-
Looks like what Baltimore did last offseason. It ended disastrously.
-
They really could have used a Cease or Valdez. A 3-4 WAR horse to anchor their rotation. I like all 5 of their projected opening day starters in isolation, but all of them have questions heading into the season. As you say, they need a shortstop. And most of a bench, with the exception of a second catcher.
-
Hoerner probably wouldn't be that expensive trade-value wise, as he's glove-first and a year from free agency. The team would definitely have the resources to acquire him, and then could recoup a comp pick after the season.
-
Hoping for Tyler Rogers now that Suarez is off the board. I could also get on board with a 1-year Kenley Jansen deal. I guess Fairbanks kind of rounds out the top tier of available remaining arms?
-
So 40M in CBT hit for two relievers and a 4th OF this offseason for Atlanta.
-
This signing seems kind of stupid. They already have Profar/Harris II/Acuna Jr. every day in the OF. Murphy/Baldwin eating most DH days. 20M for a 4th OF who can't really play CF is just an odd use of resources.
