  1. Even if the risk was not significant as per your assessment (which I do not share), even with small risk it was a poor decision to hold onto JD for a season with low post season chance.
  2. JD would have been traded long ago if Shatkins had full autonomy. I'll see if I can find my post from last offseason where I said JD should be traded due to injury risk (and Spanky chimed in saying JD has been very durable). It's not all hindsight, some of us saw the significant risk that has been realized.
  3. Can't see this happening to me. I'm always playing with my balls.
  4. The 'fanbase' will rejoice.
  5. Yes, also a candidate A's more likely to make post season though
  6. Rebuilding teams are dumb to sign FA for more than 2 years. Make sure you have the cash to sign FA when the time is right.
  7. Blake Treinen, AL CY candidate 36 saves, 0.91 ERA, 11.81 K/9, 3.2 WAR in 69.1 IP
  8. why would anyone want to waste time that way
  9. good, doesnt really fit with the Jays. spend the money on something else (pitching)
  10. Nah, I've never advocated trading Vlad, for example
  11. It's obvious tanking Anyway, I'm pumped for next season with Urias, Riley, and Robles likely in the show, a healthy Alex Reyes, and Glasnow possibly turning into a solid starter And Cy Snell
  12. Pohtani against the 'stros on sunday night baseball... nice!
  13. Truth is not truth?
  14. Those numbers are mostly as a starter. Coming out of the bullpen he'll add a couple of mph to the fastball and if he can regain the cutter he'll be fine against LHH. If not the fallback is a ROOGY for a year btw i advocated trading Sanchez after his 2016 season, as a sell high move
  15. that's peanuts to pay for a guy with strong potential as a dominant reliever
  16. E-Jax, Happ at his age would be 1 year or 2 year at most deals. Respectability shouldn't be the idea anyway, it's getting guys that would be of value to contenders at the deadline.
  17. Keuchel is 31 and putting up solid numbers. He's not signing for 2-3
  18. I'd rather sign a couple of E-Jax types to 1 year deals, rather than encumber salary on multi year deals. Save that for when the Jays are on the cusp.
  19. Of course not. He's better suited for the pen. Closer. Less chance of blister forming during short outings.
  20. Stroman, Borucki, Reid Foley, and 2 FA signings The FA signings mainly to eat innings and hopefully move for younger assets at the deadline
  21. We won't see tercet. He will run and hide.
  22. Sure, but same can be said for virtually every other other 'non-contending' AL team (O's excepted). As I said it is not realistic to think of the Jays as WC team. Could happen, but quite unlikely. Hell, being realistic have to project the White Sox as ahead of the Jays in 2019.
  23. Just like this year, a lot of things would need to break right for the Jays to get a WC next season. It's simply not a realistic thought at this point.
  24. highly unlikely
  25. Who on the tribe 40 man then, Greg Allen, Plutko? edit - nvm, found the MLB 40 man with Merryweather on it. ESPN sucks.
