With Benoit signing in Philly, we can close the book on the Revere trade: Washington gets -1.2 fWAR and -1.4 WPA from Revere before non-tendering him. Toronto gets 57 IP of 3.79/4.09/4.16 ERA/FIP/xFIP from Storen and Benoit (0.4 fWAR, 1.14 WPA, 1.0 RA-9 WAR) The trade actually worked out pretty well lol. The relievers provided like a win above replacement, and probably close to 2 wins above Revere.

Reports have come out saying the jays have closed the door on Edwin.
-
I get the impression that the FO was never all that interested in having him back, preferring the smaller commitments than locking an ageing DH up long-term at 20+M per year.
-
Paul Kinzer can f*** right off at this point.
-
Goins. Barney makes him completely redundant. And even if he weren't redundant, he's very, very bad at baseball.
-
Hurl should honestly be banned for posting those SN quotes.

Why would anyone read the Jays facebook page?
-
I think you paid as though Benintendi is 100% to be at least, say, Starling Marte good. If he is that good beginning in 2017, the trade is fine.
-
Yes, but I was talking just about the lineup.
-
Does anyone know what KC wants in return for Dyson? They've built their team in part around OF defence, so I think they understand his value very well. They probably see this as well the last year of their window, so they probably ask for Estrada or something, as they can use the rotation help. I don't think he'll be cheap.

Shut the f*** up you condescending sack of s***.
-
I was talking about you somehow being under impression that anyone else on the forum understands the distinction you make between a piece and a component.

Can someone ban this idiot?
-
I kind of expect them to. It seems like the team always comes 1-2 pieces short of buying everything on the fans' offseason shopping list. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Shatkins throws Upton/Carrera/Pompey at LF and crosses their fingers.
-
Why?
-
Really just a backup catcher and an everyday OF required now for the lineup: C - Martin 1B - Pearce 2B - Travis 3B - Donaldson SS - Tulowitzki CF - Pillar LF - Upton/Carrera RF - DH - Morales 1B - Smoak LF - Upton/Carrera 2B/SS/3B - Barney C - Would also be nice to acquire a better platoon partner for Upton (which would move Carrera to the 4th OF spot and be the end of Smoak on the roster), but really things are manageable with just an everyday OF and backup C added.
-
No.
-
Career 130 wRC+ vs. LHP and 100 vs. RHP. There's no reason to use him in a strict platoon, especially given that he's at least average defensively at 1st or a corner OF spot. Reminds me of Logan Forsythe and Justin Turner. Years wasted using them in platoon spots when it turned out that they were capable of 5-win seasons if played everyday.
-
Every year there are 1-2 contracts that seem to be obvious steals and you wonder why other teams weren't driving up the price. Last year it was Rich Hill. This year is Steve Pearce. Guy is getting paid for like 1.5 wins total over the two years and has a chance to be a huge contributor, playing almost every day at one of LF, 1B, RF, or DH.
-
f*** yes. All hail Shatkins.
-
It's happening!
-
Do you think the team considers him one though? What's it been, 100 PA since his extension?
-
I'd definitely take Moreland over Smoak if there was a way to remove Smoak from the roster without eating his contract. I prefer neither though.

Lots of cheap unhealthy food manages to not taste disgusting. That's why everyone is so fat.
