  1. What I still don't understand: if they think Luciano has elite upside, why not just give KC something for him and develop him properly?
  2. yikes
  3. Votto maybe being terrible now is sad.

    He must have been willing to work for an insulting salary.
  5. He got Paddack too, so it looks better this year.
  6. I think the growing concern is about how bad the position players have looked collectively. We're May 23rd now and they've combined for 0 fWAR. That doesn't necessarily mean that there are issues identifying MLB-caliber talent, but I think given the fact that none of us really know anything about Ross Atkins other than that Mark Shapiro trusts him, it's pretty reasonable that some alarm bells are being set off. Maybe everyone is just about to take off and this is all moot, but I'll be pretty concerned if we get to the halfway point of the season and the bats are still hovering at replacement level collectively.
  7. We decided on 2nd round pick forfeiture if the player accrues stats. It sure if the details were added to spittin’s first post in this thread.
  8. There is not and never has been a penalty for illegally adding a ayer who doesn’t accrue stats.
  9. I don't know when the wheels are going to fall off the Hunter Pence train, but it's been a wild ride.
  10. What an odd thing to post.
  11. The guy who added him in BORED must be a handsome genius.

    The Blues are the 6th team ever to sit in last place in January and make the playoffs, and the 1st of those 6 to win a playoff series.
  13. Yeah, the Osuna trade was one of Atkins' best moves as GM. He's every bit as good as Osuna, and they also picked up two other interesting arms with 6 years of control each. The deal was a coup given that Osuna carries huge baggage.
  14. Politics thread is this way: https://www.bluejaysmessageboard.com/threads/6115-Politics-Thread
  15. I can't believe elite SP/RP John Gant is still available 12-hours after hitting the market. Spanky must be having a hard time wading through all of the lucrative offers.
  16. Maybe Trevor Bauer should have signed a long-term deal.
  17. Jesus. My faith in Ross Atkins has taken a hit this year. That would have been an obvious conversation to have with your manager given this team’s massive PR problem.
  18. Shouldn't a day at DH basically be considered a day off? Or is it a situation where you don't take BP on an off day, but do if you're DHing, so you actually save yourself a few dozen swings with an off day?
  19. Dinger, did you enjoy dropping Mike Leake today as much as I did?
  20. Mostly Rogers and Atkins I would think. Rogers sets payroll, and Ross Atkins has to find good players under whatever parameters he's given. Our total position player fWAR right now is (-0.5). Our bats have been sub-replacement level. I get that it's a rebuilding year, but the FO absolutely has to be better than that. We're only 1.3 fWAR better than the Marlins, who are being mocked by the entire baseball world for their offensive ineptitude.
