  1. This guy is a stud. Chance to have the best career of any Blue Jays SP prospect.
  2. The advertising for sports betting is so predatory these days. Just in your face, all time, during every sporting event. Such a glaring irony to have that shoved in our faces and then see players getting in trouble for gambling stuff. Like, what did everyone expect?
  3. I dunno man. They have some pitching prospects, finally, but the rotation still looks like a short term window thing. They could justify rentals or long term adds.
  4. Range is most of OAA and every other defensive metric Regardless, the original post remains wrong. Bo is probably below average but he does not have "the worst range of all starting SS in MLB"
  5. It's funny how much the Jays prospect values have changed. I look at that deal and Pinango is the toughest one to lose, to me.
  6. Vlad is kind of putting together a vintage Votto/Freeman season. A bit weird for a dude that can hit the ball so hard. But good weird, I guess. Can't complain about any 4 WAR year.
  7. I almost name dropped you as the t bag recipient
  8. Everyone who defended the organization, Shapiro, or Atkins at all in the last 12+ months gets to take such a huge victory lap. Ceaseless t-bag victory lap.
  9. Amazing start to this series If tomorrow is a close game, the whole pen should be available
  10. Yankees Sox Rays Astros all losing comfortably
  11. It's an offensive upgrade more than anything. Oswald Peraza is a very good defender. But they go from a hitter who is not MLB viable in Peraza to whatever McMahon does with the bat
  12. Yeah McMahon is like a 2 WAR (full season pace) upgrade for NYY even if he is a meh hitter
  13. Ryan McMahon has never had a wRC+ over 97
  14. Yeah the Padres probably ruined him. When he was 17 and killing A ball scouts LOVED him but he still had 57 Ks in 48 games and should have been handled more appropriately.
  15. Yariel and Gurriel are in a different bucket but on the baby side yeah their successes have all been bargain bin signings. Kirk and Moreno. Kendry Rojas was a $200k signing. Fernando Perez was a hot dog signee like Kirk. I can't find if Victor Arias was a cheap signee or more of a moderate investment.
  16. Apparently they offered Cease + Ethan Salas + some other prospect for Jarren Duran
  17. Dylan Cease for Daulton Varsho framework Cease is the kind of SP Toronto needs but Varsho is under control for 2026 and also pretty dang good. What would it take as a kicker for you to say yes to that?
  18. I wonder if they will tap the brakes on activating Varsho until they see what trades happen Very possible that dudes from the MLB roster are being traded. The obvious option for Varsho is Loperfido, which is a bit of a shame given how Loperfido has been playing. But JL is also huge trade bait right now because of the Jays' depth and how he is playing. I doubt Wagner, Orelvis, or Clase will draw much interest from other teams. Lukes is too old to be worth much in trade. Schneider and Straw probably aren't super interesting as trade targets either and the Jays kind of need their side of the platoon so they are less likely to be dealt I think. Roden and Loperfido are probably the most likely Buffalo Boys to be traded. From the ones who have MLB experience at least. Shreck and other non 40 man dudes could be dealt of course. Toronto kind of NEEDS to deal some of this depth. Can't keep all these position players. Already lost Wil Robertson for nothing.
  19. It's cool but also pretty hard to get hard when the Jays have whiffed on every big international free agent since Vlad. I think this is everybody since Vlad that got at least $1M Cristopher Polanco (2025) has been ass in the DOSL Emmanuel Bonilla (2023) is horrible Luis Meza (2022) sucks Manuel Beltre (2021) sucks Rikelvin De Castro was a bust Orelvis Martinez was probably a tease Eric Pardinho may never get an MLB inning
