Does management know that?
-
I'd would be insane to let two guys on expiring contracts handle this coming offseason. They need, at the very least, a new head of baseball ops with a multi-year commitment and no do-or-die mandate for 2025.
-
What does everyone think about the team's direction next year? As things stand we're probably looking at something like the following going into the offseason: C - Kirk 1B - Guerrero Jr. 2B/1B - Horwitz 3B/SS - Clement SS - Bichette CF - Varsho LF/2B - Schneider RF - Springer 3B/OF - Barger ---- 2B/3B - Wagner 2B/3B - Martinez OF/1B - Loperfido C - ??? Gausman Bassitt Berrios Rodriguez Bloss Romano (if arm is intact) Green Swanson Cabrera Pop Little some guy some other guy That's not a good team. If they want to contend, they probably need: - #1 catcher - above-average everyday 3B - monster corner OF bat - ace - mid rotation starter - like 3-4 very good pen arms I don't see how they do that in one offseason. I think we're in a really bad spot where management needs to win at all costs in 2025, but doesn't have the roster to do it. So it's going to be all-in (cash and prospects) to try to hail-mary a 90-win team and get new contracts from ownership.

This is an actual prospect. Can't believe how well the IKF contract worked out
-
This deadline has been so boring. Very little payoff for ignoring my job all afternoon.
-
It makes no sense for SF to trade Cobb and Soler but not Snell. Have to think he's moving today
-
Alex Cobb to the Guardians
-
Probably just risk aversion taken too far. That org still hasn't shown the commitment to winning that makes me think they'll be towering over the AL for the next 5-10 years. If LAD or NYY were in their shoes Skubal would be on the team and they'd be in the process of working out a 10-year extension. But Baltimore goes half measures with two guys you don't want making playoff starts. I bet Burnes and Santander leave in the offseason without suitable replacements brought in.
-
Vanilla dip with sprinkles. I'll never forget it.
-
I guess in the case of Skubal and Crochet it's not $$$, but Elias wanting to hang on to his prospects
-
Are we sure the new owners are going to spend? Because they're making the kinds of moves they'd make if they had no money.
-
Stuff+ sitting at 84 this year lmao
-
Orioles fans won't like this
-
So the big intrigue on deadline day is the Trevor Rogers sweepstakes? Good show, MLB.

Every time I see this expression I think of the time a woman I was seeing pulled a doughnut off the table beside my bed and started eating it before we went to sleep at around 1-2 in the morning. She had picked it up earlier from Tim Horton's and not eaten it. She finished eating it, turned out out the light and rolled over to go to sleep. I couldn't let it go and asked if she was going to brush her teeth post-doughnut. It led to a massive fight and she went home. All that to say, I've never kicked someone out of bed for eating crackers, but I have kicked someone out of bed for eating a doughnut.

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2024)
BTS replied to Ryu In My House's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I really get the impression that Vlad wouldn't think twice about 200M, and might not even sign for 300M if it were offered to him tomorrow. -
Thank f***ing god. Good riddance.
-
Still no word on the assignments for these guys?
-
They'll strike out on Soto. Then panic because they need to win in 2025. I can see it now: - farm emptied again for Luis Robert - 4/80 for Christian Walker - 4/80 for Jurickson Profar - 6/150 for Blake Snell The team wins 76 games. Atkins and Shapiro don't have their contracts renewed. New regime inherits a losing team with a half dozen underwater contracts and a bottom-5 farm.
-
You slow-playing the trade offer I sent you yesterday?
-
No word yet on where these guys are reporting?
-
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Shouldn't be any reason why they can't get a couple top-100 guys for him.
-
Astros fans on Reddit are melting down. I hope Atkins buys himself a nice new sweater vest tonight.
-
I have no idea who Will Wagner is. 5 minutes of stat scouting tells me that Ross likes Spencer Horwitz so much that he decided to acquire another one.
-
Ross Atkins is so back
