  1. Hah, a know nothing throwing out a little cliche. I'll have you know, in an engineering firm with over 2000 staff, I was the highest paid engineer for almost 10 years. I have more knowledge in my pinky finger than you do.
  2. Go ahead and apply regression. I understand stats very well and regression is going to make a relatively minor impact on the numbers. That's where 90, 110 comes from. Go ahead, crunch the numbers, prove me right. Thank you.
  3. No need for any statistical adjustments here. Even if the true wRC+ values after regression are 90 for Ernie and 110 for Schneider, the difference is significant. It's a skill thing, Schneider is a much better bat against RHP. Ernie murdered LHP in 2025, btw.
  4. Dumdum, the defense is why he is on the bench against tough righties. Against the tough righties, Schneider and his 30% better bat is in the lineup. The career numbers are based on 913 PA for Clement, and 502 for Schneider. The significant difference against RHP is pretty clear.
  5. Jameson Taillon has had 2 TJS and is a solid mid rotation guy. Someone will sign Garcia, why not the Jays?
  6. You haven't done your homework. Against RHP Ernest has a 75 wRC+ for 2025 and 82 for his career. Moustache against RHP has a 155 wRC+ for 2025 and 112 for his career. Tough righties on the mound, Ernest is on the bench.
  7. 2B only, he's older now He's had a history of back problems which is why he has been generally limited to the less demanding position
  8. Jake Cook was a pitcher. As a position player, he's the equivalent of "just out of high school".
  9. It doesn't seem to be helping you, either
  10. Yeah the use of Ernie is optimized as a super utility guy that plays all over the diamond and gets 500 to 600 PA a year. If the Jays move on from Straw, it would be good for Ernie to get some reps in CF in ST, I'm sure he'd be quite good there and would add to the Jays position flex. Ernie = Mookie
  11. Regardless, highly unlikely Scherzer would be on the post season roster given the staff the Jays have built up.
  12. Wow. We are getting Tucker!
  13. What do ya mean? You misrepresented what I wrote and its me moving the goalposts? Crikes
  14. Straw gets moved off regardless. Loperfido can do that job cheaper and potentially better.
  15. Im not. I wouldnt be surprised if the Jays are conservative with his usage in 2026. My only reason for bringing it up is in relation to the question of whether the Jays keep Berrios or not. This FO has not often traded contracts with cash. It may be Ponce is a swing man with Lauer, and Berrios is kept as 5th starter. To manage Yesavage workload, they run Ponce and Lauer out as a 6th starter several times each.
  16. Thing is, if they sign one of them im not wrong, an event happened that i said was unlikely Proving me wrong is very elusive my man
  17. Yes he would. No way he walks away from the deal.
  18. Quite unlikely is a lot different than won't
  19. That may be the case but why would he walk away from the money
  20. Or you include him with cash and prospects for Ketel
  21. Those 3 guys are worthless as trade fodder. Jays would have to send cash and lots of it.
  22. I don't think Berrios is going anywhere, if he rebounds that's a heck of a 5th starter innings eater.
  23. You are probably right, but there is a chance Jays play it conservatively and manage his innings, especially with the depth of pitching they now have.
  24. Yesavage had 25 MILB games in 2025, and pitched 98 innings or slightly less than 4 innings a game. Im not sure the Jays are ready to give him a full workload.
