  1. Bingo. If he hits FA we face big $$$ teams that also want starting, and he's one of the best options on the market. His value goes up, and his chance of signing with us (as a destination) goes down, as it did with Anibal
  2. If we give him his FA money early he won't care. Give him a 4 year deal paying $14m per year 4/$56M? Edit: Do you think he'll be getting Anibal money?
  3. For him + extension will be pretty sexy though. Always been a great pitcher, and pitched dominantly in the AL
  4. I always wondered this..... why the f*** did AA extend Morrow but didn't extend Rasmus?? We could have bought low Even if the plan was to keep Gose longterm, an extension should have been inplace in case something like this happened so we can trade him at even a bigger value Rasmus + prospect for Utley is imminent lol
  5. Ew f*** that Like you said bro, Cano or Bust
  6. Took the words out of my mouth lol, exactly what I wanted to say too, Garza extension is fapfapfap, and they're going to want big price + international budget
  7. Oh f*** that. Why Utley? I always knew that he would be chasing him, but come on. Thanks for the news posts!
  8. I love that we are going after Garza...... if he mattered :/ But if we get Garza plus extension.... <3
  9. Wait so we couldn't claim him? I thought you can claim DFA'd players? I remember Mike Gonzalez signing in May after BP auditions.... The dude pitched well with Texas and Baltimore the previous year too
  10. Hahaha you know what's funny? Our players can't do either thing!
  11. We should throw him in the weighted ball program lol. K-Rod and Mike Gonzalez should have been signed Francisco was DFA'd earlier bro: http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/05/braves-designate-juan-francisco-for-assignment.html
  12. Guess who's not attracting FA's with incentive deals anymore? lol Jays should f***ing claim, if there is any time to claim, it should be now (we should have also claimed Juan Francisco from the Braves)
  13. If a team with a draft pick under the 10th pick we get it.... so basically we either get no compensation or a pick between 11 and 30 depending on the team that signed him
  14. It's ironic, back on the old board we used to laugh at the Phillies for their trades and thinking that they are competitive, and blasting Amaro Jr. as much as we could Now I wonder if other fans see us as we saw the Phillies? Throwing prospects and money into the fire!
  15. The two that spoke obviously can't do that, so if they can't play ball they won't shut the f*** up
  16. He's 22 (or 21?) the kid is way ahead of his time as a starter, most starters his age would do worse. All he needs is to polish that changeup and make it an out pitch. His biggest problem was after getting to two strikes, not being able to put the batter away
  17. lol #Blowup2013 please. Blow everything up except the owners and the coaching staff. Fire everyone else and ship half the team
  18. This time last year we were 42-43 This year we are 41-44 Last year we had an emergence of young starters and EE, and an injury plague that wiped us out, along with a top 5 farm system This year we have really nothing 'special' infact the only positive surprise might be Kawazaki and Rogers as a starter. No farm to speak of, and backloaded contracts are on the team, which I might add is the oldest team in the Majors. Did I mention that most of the team's contracts are expiring by 2016? I have changed my attitude completely about this team and favor a blowup and rebuilding of the team. I'm not saying that I have given up on the Jays, if anything as a fan I have given them a second chance and a pass on the so called "chosen season". I just feel like the risk is greater if we go forward with this team than just scrapping and rebuilding for contention in 2-3 years, but that's just me. So should #Blowup2013 be a thing?
  19. His 'thang' is missed :/ Man how I hate that we gave up the players we did in the Miami trade. But I guess you have to give up some to get some
  20. Love that reference but on topic: Trade Lind ASAP because he might still be valuable on the market. I remember being blasted during the win streak for saying that we should move him, but as he's cooled off, he should be traded because he's going to bring back more than what he's worth for a team that's contending right now. Rasmus because he's at FA season, either that or extend him ASAP and trade Melky/Gose Oliver to Rangers because they don't mind relief and they like Oliver JJ because JJ and Bonifacio to NL team because of utility option and speed I doubt Rogers has any value, and I bet Buherle has as much, if not more, value than him. If so then trade his backloaded ass out of here Trade Arencibia now before his stock drops even lower. We should send him to a desperate team that needs homerzzzzzz from the 'catching' position (Nats? Tigers? Mariners?) Janssen because teams like the Tigers believe in savezzzzzzzzzzzz (ala Valverde signing) who need closers pay out the ass for one
  21. This was an awesome team before the Dickey trade. We ALL valued d'Arnaud starting over Arencibia instead of Dickey throwing every 5 days. Had we just thrown as much money as possible on Anibal Sanchez, problem solved easily. I know it's hard to attract FA, but I think $3-$5 million extra annually over what the Tigers gave isn't worth as much as d'Arnaud and Syndgaard were
