  1. I'm sure he's very nice and all, but giving him 2M was pretty f***ing crazy
  2. Volgelbach DFA'd, praise Jesus
  3. I was on Braves Reddit yesterday. They're calling for a rebuild and seem to agree that their core are a bunch of feckless losers.
  4. It's actually not dissimilar from what they Jays have gone through: Acuna was hitting for 0 power (109 wRC+) then broke Olson is worse across the board and only has a 118 wRC+ Harris II can't hit at all (84 wRC+) Murphy can't hit at all (11 wRC+) Riley can't hit at all (82 wRC+) Albies has turned into a slap hitter Basically their offense is Ozuna
  5. The Braves are in absolute shambles right now
  6. If it was any other team acquiring him I'd say that clearing his remaining salary and getting a breathing AAA arm was a tidy piece of business. But now I fully expect Cavan to put up Craig numbers in LA.
  7. You're doing it again
  8. Yup. Management is effectively throwing s*** at the wall and hoping something sticks. Atkins keeps playing it cool for the media, but in reality he's off script and getting reckless trying to save his job. I don't think he'll be fired before the offseason, but I hope Shapiro has the sense to tie his hands as far as trades go. There should be no additions, and pending FAs should be sold.
  9. There have been so many "grasping at straws" moments in the last few weeks. Ross is shook.
  10. You have a habit of taking a stance, then lumping the rest of the forum into a monolithic uninformed opposition to that stance, then tilting at the windmill you've created.
  11. Probably? Jays were the high bidder for his services in the offseason - I'm not sure what has happened that would change things.
  12. No, if the Jays place him on waivers and he gets claimed the claiming team pays his entire salary. If he clears, rejects the assignment, and signs as a FA, the signing team is responsible for the pro-rated portion of the league minimum, as you say. I imagine the Jays are hoping to trade him, and if they can't, hoping for the small chance that he's claimed.
  13. It’s kind of hilarious that the team that was built around defense is going to be playing Vlad at 3B and Horwitz at 2B. Desperation is a stinky cologne. They’re clearly panicking
  14. I think they prefer to lose him and his salary
  15. This whole thing has been so strange. Dude shows up in ST, casually hits a nuke off Zack Wheeler in his first AB, then stubs his toe on a bat and is never heard from again.
  16. Yeah. I'm up to page 4 of the IKF thread and don't see a single irrational post.
  17. I don't see it the same way. I see a bunch of "glass half empty" posters who don't really take any abuse. Because the team is bad and glass half empty is a pretty obvious read of the situation. And then 2-3 dorks who have been making the same tired jokes since April at the expense of people who seem to have upset them by being optimistic about the Jays on a Jays fan message board.
  18. The only teams that “sell high” are poor teams that need to constantly cycle talent because they can’t afford to pay them. Good teams get good players and then just keep them. Toronto should be selling because they suck, but a GM in this market will never sell good players when the team is actually good.
  19. I'm going to start banning people for posts like this. Every time I log in it's the same 3-4 people bashing the same 2-3 people for not being 100% negative.
  20. Still can't believe they landed him for a back of the rotation starter and a bunch of mediocre-bad pitching prospects
  21. Why try to squeeze the 7th out of Gasuman when he's been lucky to only give up 5?
  22. Feels like everything in play has been a nuke tonight
  23. Vogelbach looking svelte in the black
  24. So his feelings were hurt that the other team was happy about throwing him out at home in a close game? What a f***ing soft clown.
