    Many on this board were criticizing the trade immediately after it was announced, recognizing the poor value.
  2. Jimcanuck
    The Marlins and Mets trades were completely opposite to AA's MO up to that point. It's certainly possible he was being directed, and that's not an uncommon opinion. Also, stop being an ******* in responding to my posts.
  3. Jimcanuck
    If Beeston directed AA on the Marlins and Mets trades, does that change your opinion of AA? He's negotiated good contracts, drafted well, generally made good trades with some bad ones thrown in, about to sign the No. 2 IFA..... and two clusterf***s in Marlins and Mets deals. Disregard the clusterf***s and he's been a good GM overall.
  4. Jimcanuck
    in a heartbeat
  5. Jimcanuck
    You may be right. But most likely, you don't have a f***ing clue about how such decisions are made.
  6. Jimcanuck
    Well dopey smokey, that wasn't my point. The question is whether AA deserves to stay on as GM. I was simply pointing out that AA has built a good team that is not reflected in the W-L record. He has built the best offense by far, a reasonably good bullpen, and a starting rotation that while weak overall, has really suffered from the late and unexpected loss of Stroman. But of course, you being the person you are, you make a response typical of an *******.

    to be fair, based on RD the Jays should be leading the AL
  8. Jimcanuck
    Sorry bro, but you are getting super annoying. Iggy for you.

    Cueto is a 1-1.5 WAR upgrade on Hutch? Need to add Cueto without subtracting anyone from the current 25 man, if going all in.
  10. Jimcanuck
    Tongue firmly planted in cheek when I typed that.... but as is typical, it becomes ammunition for the web warriors on here
  11. Jimcanuck
    Stay classy
  12. Jimcanuck
    Not a chance

    So.... I went from far sighted to needing bifocals around that age. Lots of people lose eyesight during their 30's. Its just one of many possibilities for EE's pitch recognition/plate discipline issues.
  14. Jimcanuck
    Clancy was durable, and consistent results. WAR is a counting stat.
  15. Jimcanuck
    with those 7 it would be closer by committee
  16. Jimcanuck
    In the off season I compared Hutch to Jim Clancy. Solid mid rotation guy for years.
  17. Jimcanuck
    none are elite individually although a case can be made for osuna and sanchez is he performs like last year out of the 'pen. cecil is an elite reliever when he is on, have not seen it yet this year. but this would be a very deep 'pen. would have no plm using any of the 7 in high leverage situations.
  18. Jimcanuck
    The ideal scenario is a trade for a SP, promote Norris, and move Sanchez and Estrada to the 'pen. Improves the SP and a bullpen of Cecil, Osuna, Loup, Sanchez, Hendriks, Delabar, and Estrada is elite.
  19. Jimcanuck
    His plate discipline/pitch recognition has nosedived. He's played through injuries the last few years and put up good numbers. Who knows, at his age eyesight can start to deteriorate. Hoping for a big 2nd half from EE.
  20. Jimcanuck
    No they aren't similar at all. One has above average command, the other has poor command. In terms of quality of arsenal they are similar. But command is the most important skill for a pitcher.
  21. Jimcanuck
    Of course. I take issue with your use of 'objective' in evaluating MiLB stats. It's just not possible, particularly in the case of Hoffman. You can evaluate Hoffman's stats all you want.... but it would be useless. Boyd is top 25 in MiLB if you go by stats.
  22. Jimcanuck
    Just to be clear.... IMO Thor > Sanchize at this point, may change in future
  23. Jimcanuck
    Oh come on. The same guys pumping Snider based on his MiLB #'s are the same ones that said Yan who? Objective evaluation of MiLB stats is a fools errand.
  24. Jimcanuck
    a lot of dumn
  25. Jimcanuck
    I said its a possibility, and there are many other possibilities. None of us know what is going on, and what Hoffman is working on as he develops. MiLB stats are misleading for a guy coming back from TJS. You can throw Hoffman's 2015 stats out the window.
