I wouldn't even hate those numbers to be honest -
Their internal projections probably have Gimenez closer to 4 WAR and Horwitz more of a 2 WAR ceiling with more risk. The boring take is that they just like Gimenez' total package as a defense first 2B and think he has value on his contract. The more interesting take is that they think Gimenez is a shortstop and Bo is gone.
-
Hate losing Horwitz.
-
I kind of like them tbh
-
He was a 6 win player at 23 Could be an amazing trade I bet they gave up a lot for him actually
-
Now we can talk about the Gimenez Window!

lol

Jays bring back Yimi Garcia on 2 year, 15 million dollar deal
Laika replied to Terminator's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Hard to see non tendering Romano and then giving Yimi this contract as shrewd or anything Obviously there are medical things we don't know but c'mon -
It is absolutely f***ing hilarious that the Toronto Blue Jays offered Shohei Ohtani $700M and didn't get him, then offered Juan Soto $760M and didn't get him either. Just the most elite Price Enforcing GM in the sport. There is no other Price Enforcing GM who compares to Ross. A complete weapon of a Bridesmaid.
-
why don't we just wait and see about that one lol if he is the #5 guy going into spring as the other dorks said, I feel fine. that's not a presumed leverage spot.
-
Kind of funny Shatkins will look like a dork if he has to give a C closer more than that Paul Sewald for $10M anybody? lol
-
Trade Vlad!
-
Holy s***
-
Some really interesting non tenders this year
-
Sounds like Soto would be paid for by the special desperate Rogers extra bonus payroll anyway So if they do sign him they likely still have a bag of cash for a couple more pieces
-
There is always some big FA whale who holds the entire market up, these days Obviously we have Soto now but also Roki Sasaki not getting posted until January... there are a bunch of teams who have Sasaki #1 on their hit list, they aren't going to sign Jack Flaherty for $100M when they might be able to get Sasaki for $7M
-
They are old and bad I am not surprised they suck now. I am actually just surprised they managed to be good last year and were so good two years ago. I thought it would all end with Bergeron's career. The Elias Lindholm contract is horrendous.
-
It is 2024, guys can throw a few bullpens and you can more or less get reasonable MLB projections of them based on pitch shape I'm not even saying they HAD to let him debut out of camp. But if they weren't going to, they needed to keep him down long enough so his odds of being ROY were zero. No cap they made a franchise altering fumble for a small market team
-
Yes
-
Skenes ROY Skenes earns full year of service time Pirates do not get a bonus pick. Idiots. Hope the 7 starts in the minors were worth it???
-
What analysis exactly?

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2024)
Laika replied to Ryu In My House's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
not a horrible group projection to be honest. that's like an 85 win team. who knows if it's legit though. last year they projected for like 87 wins and we all saw what happened. -

Laika replied to Ryu In My House's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
It is not hard to imagine Instead of Vlad you have something like Santander for 4/$80M and Goldschmidt or whatever for 1/$12M. Plus whoever you think they might be able to sign while keeping Vlad. Say Max Fried for 5/$125 Plus a few more prospects. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee plan the parade -
Good deal tbh. Jays should've.
