  1. it's over. should the Blue Jays sell at the deadline?
  2. 5 pitches by Leasure, five swings by Toronto not ideal
  3. Schultz, Burr, Yimi, Sandlin all going down in the last 12 days
  4. Did Ryan Burr's elbow just explode? Brutal for him. Ugh.
  5. I dunno, dickface. It's the Brewers. They traded their closer in a playoff race because of money. They do weird stuff all the time.
  6. Vlad vlad vlad. Classic vlad day. Horrible baserunning and pounding everything into the dirt.
  7. nah that's too bean county it's okay to have an overpaid player that a) has palpable upside and b) is good for marketing or other stuff
  8. https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/the-dinner-with-ed-rogers-that-secured-the-vladdy-deal
  9. nobody should care about Vlad's salary this is not a small or mid-market team
  10. I mean, you do a trade like that if you are pretty sure the prospect sucks and you want to get bail on him. Toronto has done this before though.
  11. Lauer needs to limit the damage and get through 5 or 6. The bats will wake up today.
  12. ruh oh the streak is at risk today, as expected
  13. I don't agree A 50 FV prospect is worth something like $25M to $30M in NPV Keller is owed 17, 18, 21 over the next 3 years His 2026 and 2027 ZiPS are for 2.0 and 1.7 WAR; assume 1.4 for 2028 That's 5.1 WAR across 3 years for $56M which is about $11M per win I don't think he's worth $30M in surplus value on that contract. His contract might actually be a fair free agent deal right now. Consider what guys like Kikuchi and Pivetta and Flaherty just got. He's worth a premium that is equal to whatever it is worth this year to help with a playoff race + his surplus value remaining in 2025. I'm not willing to burn Nimmala for this. I would burn certain other top 10 Jays prospects but probably not a top 100 mlb type. I mean he's a perfectly cromulent replacement for Bassitt for 2026 on but that's not the priority here at the deadline. He doesn't move the "win the World Series" needle a whole lot does he? This is a RHP with a 95 Stuff+.
  14. it's okay he will suffer a back injury at 30 years old which will change the natural tilt on his swing which will unlock his 50 HR power and HOF candidacy nobody will care about his 100 career TOOTBLANs when he gets the call to the hall
  15. Vlad went a couple of months without any real TOOTBLANs but in the last couple of weeks he has done this blunder + multiple dumb steal attempts. Sigh.
  16. Not watching but it seems like they are doing what they need to do against Houser. Good approach, getting guys on base. The horrendous bottom 5 produced a run!
