  1. And it's not like Barger has the day off if he doesn't start. They pinch hit as soon as the bullpen flips over.
  2. Passan says Shane Bieber is available Interesting analysis. Currently rehabbing. Has a $16M player option with a $4M buyout for 2026. Was actually an Ace once, unlike the fraud Manoah who is on the same rehab timeline.
  3. Not my money. Have to keep in mind that Rogers desperately tried to get other (better) players to take this dough and nobody wanted to play in Canada. Is what it is His at bat with the bases loaded was pathetic. It's wild that almost every player on the team has a better approach or composure than Vlad. Seems like everyone goes up there with a sound idea of what they are able to do and what they should do in most at bats... other than Vlad. And Bo who is a natural hacker.
  4. FWIW (a lot) Gabe Moreno only made the honourable mentions of that list.
  5. Here is a crazy trade to think about again: July 20 2012 J.A. Happ was traded to the Toronto Blue Jays along with Brandon Lyon, and David Carpenter, for Francisco Cordero, Ben Francisco, Asher Wojciechowski, David Rollins, Joe Musgrove, Carlos Pérez, and Kevin Comer. At the time of the trade Happ had a 4.83 ERA and the year prior it was 5.35. Such an aggressive deal. No top prospects in context but obviously Musgrove was coveted and he would go on to be very good and a big part of Houston's Gerrit Cole deal. Toronto might have traded 3 or 4 prospects from their top 20 list for SP4/5 Happ and a reliever.
  6. Little has a 1.94 ERA this year and Judge is like a 2.000 OPS hitter vs Gausman lmao
  7. Little has a 1.94 ERA this year and Judge is like a 2.000 OPS hitter vs Gausman lmao
  8. It will be interesting to see how they handle the rotation as a long term thing. We have seen the Jays invest in durable veteran SP for years now. Ryu, Gausman, Berrios, Kikuchi, Bassitt, Ray. It has been their whole thing. Not many young arms or prospects given opportunities (not that any even existed to force their hand....) Now they have a chance to handle the rotation a bit differently. Bassitt pending FA, Gausman after 2026. But will they? Or will they still target durable SP like Mitch Keller and maybe just leave SP5 slot open for Yesavage et al. Will they trade a bunch of these young arms? Be aggressive on RP conversions with some of them?
  9. Apparently the Jays asked for ONeil Cruz during the trade talks with the Pirates
  10. I don't think I have ever seen a contending team with a more glaring need Peraza is the most pathetic at bat in the sport
  11. And John Schneider People actually complained about the bullpen decisions tonight lmao
  12. Part of this is not letting guys get on second base
  13. He was nailing the bottom corners tonight and ump had a wide zone.
  14. Top of the Yankees order next inning you absolutely yank Gausman
  15. Some great plate appearances tonight. Could have even more runs for sure. Gausman has been phenomenal his command is unreal tonight
  16. Yeah it's not that Rogers won't spend that It's just that they probably don't have enough confidence he will be an elite reliever so they aren't spending that
  17. Manoah in Dunedin I can't see how he fits on the MLB roster unless a SP gets injured and they don't acquire any SP at the deadline. That slider velo isn't good and the fastball velo isn't good enough
  18. $6M for like 15 appearances plus the playoffs is pretty steep I guess
  19. Just don't understand why he lasted until 11 with that bonus
