As much as I liked Tellez, even before being drafted by the Jays. It seems there's a few reputable guys who aren't so high on his bat against MLB pitching.

For the $$$ savings I'll take Morales

What does his base running have to do with anything? If Bautista's knee didn't heal up and we kept him, would we see him getting gunned by 10 & 20 feet repeatedly???

With this lineup being a little banged and a little on the aged side, it'll be refreshing to have a guy you can and play at multiple positions with upside.

It was a f***ing broad who threw the beer. No jail time......ugh.

If he has another 6 excellent seasons similar to what he's had with the Jays, his career isn't far off Scott Rolen's. And I haven't heard any media or writers who think Rolen's going to the Hall. Even though he should be.

Say Liriano throws up a couple of good starts and Dickey gets rocked. Does Dickey go to the 'pen? And if so, why not?

I wasn't on the forum in '04 and I remember it.

You neglected to mention his greatest ability, watching baseball games on the radio

Your posts reek of panic. Let's let these guys settle in and play. I'm in favour of all the trades that've been made so far, short and long term.

True. He could end up being nothing. But I'd rather have him than someone who's s***.

I have no idea about that decision. I've really just been coasting in most fantasy leagues. My life's been a train wreck for the past 10 months.

Tellez reminds me a lot of David Ortiz athletically. Sew a super athletic upper body with good rotational mechanics onto a stiff, unathletic pair of legs, and you get Ortiz and Tellez. They may even have comparable raw power, the difference being Ortiz’ ability to utilize that power effectively with a better swing path for putting the ball in the air. The ball jumps off Tellez’ bat, but he’s very choppy getting to contact, limiting his power mostly to pitches up in the zone, where his plane is forced to level out more. What may save him from being a slugger who doesn’t slug enough is his raw hitting ability: Tellez has shown better contact rates than you’d expect and, partially as a result, the potential for a plus hit tool. Also, though his speed is extremely limited, he’s a smart base-runner who won’t kill you with poor decisions when he gets on. Though he’s not a sure thing with the bat yet, I could very easily see him in the 50+ group without having to squint. I felt more comfortable with him here until he can make some swing adjustments. His bat will get him some kind of opportunity either way.

Nice

That raccoon has a more human-like walk than Anthopoulos.

I'll pay whatever the price is, if I want to go. You'll never hear me complain about ticket prices.

Dickey's anus is quivering at hearing about all this rape talk

Here's the upcoming crop of FA SP. Name one that we would likely get AND you would feel comfortable paying 13m to. I don't see one. Brett Anderson Bronson Arroyo Brandon Beachy Andrew Cashner John Danks Jorge de la Rosa R.A. Dickey Scott Feldman Jaime Garcia Gio Gonzalez * Jeremy Guthrie Jason Hammel * Jeremy Hellickson Derek Holland * Daniel Hudson Edwin Jackson Cliff Lee Cory Luebke Kris Medlen * Matt Moore * Charlie Morton * Jon Niese * Ivan Nova Jake Peavy Edinson Volquez * Jered Weaver C.J. Wilson Travis Wood

The tickets for the 2016 Reg. Season rose what 10% in some areas of the Rogers Centre and fans were going ape s***. If you're a baseball fan and want to go to that particular game or games you will pay the price. You won't complain.

I wasn't localizing the issue. But the same fans who say "spend, it's not my money." And a few months later that extra $10 a ticket causes them to have a seizure is beyond ridiculous.

Hutch is usually good for a bomb a game, so we know he's throwing strikes.

Maybe we should have traded for Harper then. Could've had him for a song

But when ticket prices rise a little the fans lose their minds.

I wonder what all the guys he's K'ing are swinging at
