Break a bone on Vlad or LGJ
Actually, maybe he was s*** fielding 1B and effectively a DH only guy - and the Jays have Kirk
Or maybe Shatkins worried Dumtoyo would play Bird more than Kirk
Yimi saved 15 games for the Marlins
Bullpen arms are so volatile. Yates and Hand acquired last season, didn't work out. There is enough talent on the active roster and in the minors, let's see what we have in hand first before trading for bullpen pieces that might be shittier than what we already have.
Some people don't like change, if Toronto somehow gets him for the next few years, this might give them a distinct advantage extending him. Similar to Berrios
I mean, CLEVELAND?
The interesting thing is JRam seems sincere about wanting to stay in Cleveland and would accept a team friendly deal (just not as friendly as Cleveland has offered).
Would the same be extended to a team that acquires him. Maybe Shatkins has some knowledge that explains their pursuit, if the rumours are to be believed.
There have been 4 bids.
Current top offer is a Top 50'ish prospect (MIF), Top 75'ish prospect (SP), and 2nd rounder.
Yours is not currently the lead bid.
Tough one, both of them are arrow up.
Perez was dominant against MLB hitters a week or so ago, at 18 yrs old which is crazy. Caveat, its spring training. I would lean Perez, I strongly tend to select the higher upside players though.
