It gets dark when you look in more detail. Smoak, Galvis, and Sogard have been worth 2.2 fWAR, so everyone else on the roster has combined for -2.5 fWAR. After those three vets, our most valuable position player is Gurriel at 0.3 fWAR, and our second second most valuable, at 0.1, is... Trent Thornton. This season has been an unadulterated disaster.
-
We are now dead last in position player fWAR at -0.3. Somehow worse than the Marlins and Orioles.

I want to trade for a couple of bullpen arms. Dangling the following: Jose Suarez Sandy Alcantara Jorge Mateo Cal Mitchell Mitch White Drew Waters Luis Garcia Pick 16 Pick 36

I've been waiting for this. I don't know why Boxy would talk s*** given that your team is good and his is terrible.
-
Jim didn’t participate in the dispersal draft. He took over a bad BORED team and now he has a good team and strong farm. IMO he’s one of the best fantasy owners on the forum.
-
This game has DFA written all over it. I'll be shocked if we see Jackson again.
-
Maybe leave the MAGA hat at home and try again?
-
Joey Gallo looks like an absolute trainwreck in CF tonight.
-
Fair. There actually have been a decent number of good new posters lately.
-
I mean, he was either being disingenuous, or vociferously defending a position while not actually knowing the details of what he was talking about. Either situation makes his input s***** for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with the meme of this forum being in constant unanimous agreement and rejecting anyone with different ideas.
-
Spanky, did you start Edwin Jackson today?
-
Read my post above. It has nothing to do with baseball takes. The idea that everyone here agrees about baseball is f***ing absurd.
-
I'm not even talking about bad baseball takes. I'm talking about stupid disingenuous s*** like posting about how metafour prefers Merryweather to Flaherty and Bader because he defended the Donaldson trade. Someone like that is a s***** poster, and it has nothing to do with any kind of hive mind or old boys club.
-
Read through mikepelfrey's posts. Now, on a forum where people bicker incessantly, do you think people might take an issue with him for having a different opinion, or for being a f***ing moron?
-
Identifying yourself with Jays gear, or too ashamed?
-
I think the Jays subreddit and facebook pages might be more up your alley.
-
Pretending that metafour said he prefers Merryweather to Flaherty and Bader makes you sound stupid instead of having whatever effect you’re intending.

It's probably time to spend a bit of money in the offseason. And they'll have a boatload of prospects to trade for an arm. If they trade for one arm, and sign a couple others they could roster a pretty good rotation. Free agents this offseason: Bumgarner, Cole, Gibson, Hill, Porcello, Ryu, Strasburg, Keuchel, Wheeler, Wood. Signing/Trade Signing/Trade Shoemaker Thornton Pearson Borucki/Murphy/SRF/Gaviglio Even if the team trades Stroman, the rotation only has to be a problem if the team tucks dick and acts like a mickey mouse organization this offseason.

He denied choking her and was never charged because there was no evidence of physical abuse. And no, I don’t consider firing a gun alone in a garage to be beating someone.
-
Is Dubas more likely to package him up with a pick, or take another bad contract back?
-
We’ve seen comparable arms to Giles moves for elite hitting prospects. I’d be disappointed to have to settle for an arm when the market suggests that top-20 bats should be in play. I get that the rotation is a huge need, but I’d rather address it another way.
-
“The Blue Jays are widely expected to field offers for both Marcus Stroman and Aaron Sanchez, and The Athletic’s Jayson Stark even wrote today that Toronto has “signaled they could be aggressive” in trying to move both. For a team in their position, there’s little reason to hang onto the duo beyond the 2019 season and plenty of reason to explore the market earlier rather than later. The Jays aren’t contending this season, both starters are healthy, and it’s unlikely that an additional month is going to dramatically alter a rival team’s evaluation of the righties.” I don’t care about Sanchez, but Stro (and Giles, though he’s not mentioned here) are critically important decisions for Shatkins. Both trades and extensions should be on the table, and if he goes the trade route it has to be elite offensive talent brought back.
-
Martin worked out very well. There have been a few other big FA signing that have well. Off the top of my head. Scherzer, Greinke, JDM, Lester, Zobrist, Encarnacion, Cruz, Turner. As we displayed with Martin, the ability to dip into the FA market for a major piece is an ability we have that some AL rivals don't: we have the financial flexibility to go out an get an impact player that teams like Minnesota TB, and Oakland can't. You just have to make sure you're committing to the right player. If Rogers will once again allow a top-10 payroll, I really hope Shatkins leverages that into serious bids for top FA talent when the time is right.

That’s all great, but Chapman didn’t beat up his girlfriend.
