Something like 2/35 with a 3rd year team option and buyout would be nice, and should work for both sides.
-
Is Beltran at 1/16 (or 17 or 18 or whatever we would have had to pay him) tangibly more appealing than Morales at 3/33?
-
I'm not projecting him at that (and I have no idea what the team is projecting) but my answer to ECJF asking why a 1 year deal for 18-20M hasn't been finished is that the team is afraid of paying 20M and a 1st round pick and getting 2 wins (or less) in return. Even if they're projecting him at 2.6 there'd be, what, 40% odds he comes in at 2 or less? I think they'd prefer to have him for multiple years if they're giving up the pick to get him.
-
Possible, but very unlikely.
-
I don't really see a candidate for a long-term extension at this point. Not really into a long-term commitment to Sanchez (or Stroman for that matter) with 4 years of team control left. Pitching is too scary. I don't really see the urgency to commit to Travis before we know what he his. Big questions about his health and about how good he really is. People have thrown Pillar around as a candidate, but we already control his age 28-31 seasons. I don't think I want to commit to his age-32 season, 5 years in the future, when he can't hit and relies almost exclusively on his legs. Defense doesn't pay in arb anyway.
-
The hold up is probably apprension about paying $20M and late 1st round pick for a 2-win season.
-
Not that I think Stoeten is stupid (he writes well) but I really don't find him more insightful than good posters on this forum.

Saw the Sabres game at the end of November.

I wish. I'm out of town for the holidays.

Why would you not think Pearce is a better OF than Bautista?
-
Hopefully they turn him into a 1B and let Pearce handle RF.
-
I understand the issues people are having with the Morales signing, but it's hard to complain much when the strategy of making aggressive bets on guys they want early in free agency has actually worked pretty well. They struck early last offseason and landed Happ @ 3/36 and Estrada @ 2/26, then did the same thing this year and probably ended up over-committing by a year to Morales.
-
I think they're clearly better than Saunders/Bautista. Moss looks like a statue to the eye, but metrics consistently like him.
-
- left-handed bat - average offense - average defense in a corner - can play 1B, LF, RF He's as good a fit as is left on the market
-
He's a good fit here.

Expecting your guests to drop like $1500 each so you save money on your wedding is about the most selfish thing I've ever heard of.
-
The only destination wedding I'd even think of attending is someone from my immediate family.

So burlingtonbandit is engaged to the dogg's sister, who is also his brother, who has at one point f***ed the dogg, who is also his and her brother? Multiple people are about to lose their skin.
-
In his original post he was poking fun at making the claim in hindsight that the team should have traded Stro instead of Synder. It's not a useful thing to say now.
-
Do you think Shapiro is forcing this team into rebuild mode?
BTS replied to GodDonaldson's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Yeah, Morales is a better hitter than Tulo and Martin. He's the 2nd/3rd best hitter on the team, depending on what you think of Pearce. The argument that he shouldn't have been signed because the DH spot should be used to rest inferior hitters is silly. That said, there's absolutely no reason why Morales can't play 1B if Martin DHs on an off day (though there's no reason not to just give Martin a full day off - he's probably not a tangibly better hitter than Smoak). -
Can we please get a ban?
