  1. Based on what I've seen, you probably would have run the LoD Padres into the ground worse than Nafro TBH.
  2. Six dynasty league seasons. Six times I've been better than you. Will be 8/8 in a year. You're talking to one.
  3. So you've never finished ahead of me. Please tone done the disrespect of superior fantasy players.
  4. Have you ever finished ahead of me in any dynasty league?
  5. It's a bunch of guys that most people would have in the 50-150 range of prospects. Guys like that aren't rare. Guys like Moncada are.
  6. That's definitely worse than the Sale package and probably worse than the Eaton package to someone who sees Giolito as a star.
  7. I want Correa very badly, but i don't believe I have the assets.
  8. Imagine being Brett Oberholtzer and reading this thread? That would suck.
  9. I like Chris Iannetta. He can hit a bit, and always gets a lot of praise for his ability to handle a staff. Not sure where his framing talent actually falls, but at 1/4 or something I think he'd make a nice backup. If Martin does go down, I trust an Iannetta/Jimenez tandem to handle the staff more than I trust a Jimenez/McGuire tandem.
  10. Every year there are rumours that an elite player won't get paid. They always get paid. Last year it was Justin Upton whose 'market collapsed' and he got 133M. Edwin is going to get paid, probably more than 80M.
  11. You think payroll is going to 180M?
  12. Yeah. There have been so many cringey comments over the years that it's tough to remember them all. His attempts to use fan support to strong-arm the front office in contract negotiations before the season were pathetic. I'm still convinced that Shapiro leaked the 6/180 rumour to put him in his place.
  13. I'm really warming to the idea of Jarrod Dyson. He's a very good player, and a lot of fun to watch. Might be amenable to an extension too, as he's never been a full-time player and might find guaranteed money attractive. Downside would be that Gibby will almost certainly hit him first in the order.
  14. Payroll is a hair over 133 if Pearce makes ~6.25 in 2016.
  15. Duquette is a professional though. It's his job to field a winning team. There's no best way to be a fan.
  16. It's still a game I watch for fun. I think it's possible to recognize that a contract is fine, and still want to pass because you watch the team 100+ times a year and just don't like watching that player. It was fine when he was early 30s monster 170 wRC+ cannon-armed Jose Bautista. But 36-year old good-but-mortal hitting noodle-armed OF statue Jose Bautista? Meh, go away.
  17. I can only speak for myself, but there have just been too many incidents of him acting like an arrogant POS. - incessant whining about balls and strikes - the 'someone else's mediocrity' quote - his inability to take any of the heat off a rookie Ryan Goins for the miscommunication in game 6 of the 2015 ALCS, because he would have had to admit to a mistake he didn't make - the stupid showboating trying to gun Delmon Young (I think) down at 1B I just hate the way he carries himself, in general. I think over the years I've been less emotionally invested in the Jays than a lot of you guys, so I see him in a similar way as all of the fans of other AL teams who hate him. He's a less likeable Kevin Youkilis. Now at 36, with the injury history piling up, and him turning into a statue in RF, I no longer consider him a good enough player that it makes me overlook everything I dislike about him.
  18. I don't really care about team identity or anything, but I feel the same way. I recognize that 3/50 is fine for the team, but I still want him to go somewhere else. I don't like Bautista the person, and I don't like watching him play the OF. I don't want him here for three more years.
  19. Jeff Blair is such a f***ing moron
  20. Stoeten still writes?
  21. holy f*** lol
  22. I'd still prefer Fowler at 4/68 than Bautista at 2/34. I buy into Fowler's skill set, and think he'll be a good player for 3-4 years barring serious injury, and his particular skill set fits this team perfectly.
