I'd rather Beeston left than AA. Beeston is the one who implemented the "5 year policy" and got us blacklisted from Boras clients.
-
Tanaka doesn't ensure that they'll be over the luxury tax threshold. That's not dependent on his contract alone and could change at any time.
-
$175/7 = $25 The posting fee is a thing, and it's not a lump sum. Even if it were, $25M is the average annual cost of the contract.
-
What they gave him isn't relevant, $25M per is what they're paying to have him.
-
Who are these valuable long-term assets? Syndergaard might be one, but the rest looks replacement level at best.
-
********. This is all about the AAV, not the term. There's no way the Jays wouldn't have gone to $15m/7.
-
Giving 7 years @ $25M per to a Japanese free agent is a huge risk. Anybody who thinks we should have topped that is a whole other kind of idiot.
-
Who's expensive? Buerhle, Reyes and Dickey are all at or below market value. Get a clue.
-
We could sign Ubaldo, Garza, and Santana for $175M.
-
ITT: *******s complain that we didn't pay $25M/year for a pitcher they've never seen. I wouldn't pay that much for Darvish.
-
Actually, that's tampering, not collusion.
-
Meh, that is a lot more than I'd have been comfortable with the Jays giving him.
-
I worry about getting enough IP down the stretch, but I'm pretty much all-in at this point.
-
How do you guys think this team would fare in DDL? C Avila/Grandal 1B Goldschmidt 2B Carpenter 3B Sandoval SS Jeter/Lindor OF Cargo OF Holliday OF Myers DH Papi SP Fernandez SP Samardzija SP Kuroda SP Cingrani SP Gausman SP Bradley SP Haren SP Pineda RP Rodney & Santos Not much of a bullpen but otherwise I'd imagine it's a playoff team, no?
-
Bogaerts and Taijuan for me. Corbin and Paxton aren't even in the conversation and I'd be worried about Rendon's health and position long term.
-
I only disagree with Zaun maybe 60-70% of the time. At least he had the sense to lambaste Arencibia.
-
JP was the bottom?
-
Lawrie at the bottom.
-
Zimm, Panda, Seager > Donaldson
-
Lol. Bust.
-
I believe I also made a wholly idiotic comment like "you did well to sell high and get a mid-round pick."

Cool, you have contacts with scouts and AGMs on every major league team? I had no idea. -
Although Donaldson will jump more rounds than Davis, obviously getting into the 1st/2nd round elite is much more important. A few 3B I'd probably take before Donaldson include Zimmerman, Sandoval, and Seager. I guess I'm just not really a believer.
-
Personally, I probably wouldn't touch Donaldson in the first 5 rounds.
-
From late 8th rounder to 1st rounder in BBDL? I think so. Probably going to be the largest jump on the board.
