  1. Isn’t that because housing is cheap there?
  2. Big difference between suburbs and small towns IMO. I’d personally never want to live in a town with under 20k people or something like that. But then again im still a youngin so maybe that’ll change as I age. I just don’t like being too far from malls and transit and such. I can’t see myself ever moving more than an hour away from a major metropolitan city.
  3. Reeks of irresponsibility to make that assertion and publish the article without knowing what conversation took place between Atkins and Merrifield
  4. How many times do we have to say this… it would not be beneficial to move Bo to another position mid-season in a competing year. I guarantee you he makes more errors at 2B than he would at SS if you just plopped him there with no practice. Same as what happened with Vlad moving from 3B to 1B without any practice
  5. Imagine thinking Florida great lol
  6. Garbage start for the 2nd half competition so far. Hoping for some fireworks in Minny
  7. Yuck. From just watching he seems to be hitting the ball better lately but he’s getting a lot of bad luck. A lot of line drives and deep flyouts to CF/RF, which usually means good things for him. He has some terrible at bats though, like in the 9th today. I think he’s ok hitting in the 6th spot until he shows he can have a better approach. Definitely shouldn’t be hitting top 4/5 at this point, he’s one of the worst hitters on the team stat-wise this year.
  8. Im just hoping they don’t stick Merrifield in the leadoff spot. Plz don’t. He should be fine hitting in any of the 7-9 spots.
  9. Can’t ever win a series in Tampa. Ah well, i’ll take 1-1 with one game being a Kikuchi start. Not like they got blown out. Rays pitching is good. Hoping for a strong series in Minny
  10. Is he elite? His numbers this year are not great. Its definitely a gamble with how much money he is still owed
  11. Aug 3 Vladdy - 1 Point - JaysAllMighty, LTBF Kirk - 2 Points - Hernández - 2 Points - Bichette - 2 Points - Jonn, Stangstag Chapman - 2 Points - Omar, jays4life19 Jano - 3 Points - Spanky99 Gurriel - 4 Points - Espinal - 6 Points - Tapia - 8 Points - Off the bench: 10 Points -
  12. I don’t think that’s true. They aren’t checking vax status for flights at all anymore from what i’ve heard. Random spot testing though
  13. Beasley to the Pirates for cash is such garbage. I thought the Jays had all this money to make moves, yet they gave away a possible bullpen piece for nothing to offset cash coming in from Merrifield and Bass? Wtf? Am I missing something here?
  14. Jesus christ. Imagine stating that so confidently too.
  15. The other question is… will Merrifield forfeit half of his salary rather than get vaxxed? Because if he doesn’t, he’ll have to either stay in US or Canada and only play when the team is on the road/home. That is potentially a lot of money for a guy that hasn’t made a huge amount of cash in his career.
  16. Since when is a C grade a fail
  17. Im guessing one of Lourdes/Teo gets dealt in the offseason. I understand not wanting to trade one of them mid-season and possibly ruin clubhouse mojo. Springer in RF next year with a Tapia/Merrifield platoon situation in CF. Horwitz could be in the mix for RF/LF too. Other than that the team is pretty much already set next year. I rate this deadline as just OK. Shored up the bullpen a bit, Bass is sneaky good and Pop could contribute over the next few years. White should be a decent 5th starter option along with Kikuchi maybe. Merrifield is better than the stats he’s put up this year IMO. I’m fine with not selling off our top 3-4 prospects for a slightly better shot in the postseason this year which is already a crapshoot anyways. Fangraphs has the Jays at 97% chance to make the playoffs and that’s good enough IMO. Orioles got weaker and we still have tons of games against them. That will decide our season I feel
  18. Site crashing lol. I’m guessing this move means Springer to the DL and Merrifield sharing CF with Tapia
  19. Aug 2 Vladdy - 1 Point - Dylan, Deadpool Kirk - 2 Points - P2F Hernández - 2 Points - Bichette - 2 Points - Chapman - 2 Points - Jano - 3 Points - Stangstag Gurriel - 4 Points - JaysAllMighty Espinal - 6 Points - Tapia - 8 Points - Off the bench: 10 Points -
  20. If they trade Syndergaard who is supposed to start the remaining 10ish games they’ll need to cover??
  21. Its honestly the nice thing to do, gives them a day to get their living situation/packing worked out
  22. That is very surprising tbh
  23. I don’t think the Giants are selling but i’m on board with Soto + Syndergaard
