  1. Merry Christmas one and all.
  2. Probably a good thing you're not in charge of this particular project.
  3. I would like to see both him and Estrada be this year's version of Estrada. Can't have too many 2015 Estradas!
  4. Are the guys ranked within their respective category? Travis in the upper echelon is pretty generous.
  5. Well if that's what About.com says, there's really nothing much left to discuss here. #legit
  6. Looking pretty despaired here.
  7. I remember Mac33 being pretty civil, but he got himself into lots of arguments due to very lopsided trade proposals, where his motto was always, "it can't to hurt to ask". Pretty sure Adolf was the angriest of the lot.
  8. Rogers doesn't even like baseball.
  9. Oh boy, I also dropped a Marty York reference today. So that's two in one day. If he's reading this, he's probably rubbing his hands in glee and shouting: "I'M BACK, BABY!"
  10. I wouldn't classify either signing as a discount per se, but more so a taking on of risk from all parties. On those two deals, it has worked out quite well for the Jays. The thing I like about Shapiro, which may or may not even be a thing, is that I get a feeling that when it comes to their next deals, the offers will be based on what he thinks they will provide moving forward, rather than an offer that includes a "make up" their "lost" earnings of their previous deals.
  11. Oh goodie, another item for the media (and Marty York) to jump all over and skewer Shapiro with. "Blue Jays flip bird to Ed-Wing" ~ a possible Steve Simmons headline
  12. They'll be less good, but still pretty good.
  13. He can't even say the word "welcoming". WE'RE DOOMED
  14. Gene Brownridge. That ties both topics together nicely I think.
  15. Such an important element to all of this. That's not to excuse Gibbons bullpen usage, but it's important to acknowledge it.
  16. I don't think the key is whether or not they're declining, but rather what level they're declining to. Both guys could put up lesser numbers than they're doing now and still have a lot of value. Unless someone rockets through the system, replacing what they bring to the table is going to be expensive one way or another.
  17. Jeez, no respect for the best pure hitter on the team.
  18. And even then, which people?
  19. Need to get him on the Stroman rehab program.
  20. Man I remember being so frustrated with McGriff towards the end of '89. He was standing so far off the plate I couldn't understand how he ever expected to make contact. This team was very blessed with 1B for a long time.
  21. I doubt it. I don't think he moved Revere there because he necessarily wanted to, more so that Tulo was struggling. He probably should have just moved everyone up a spot rather than swapping Tulo for Revere, but he gave a lineup with Tulo at the top a decent chance.
  22. Based on what? 12 days on the job with a new team in a new market with different payroll parameters?
  23. Yes. It's tough to tell, but when I was typing the first sentence of that post, there was a real tongue-in-cheek/eye roll vibe going through my brain, as in: "Pfft, I would LOVE to see the offseason that allows us to keep Osuna in the minors all year"
