  1. that is shockingly bad 86 stuff+ 89 location+ 98 FB (okay) 85 sinker (brutal) 79 slider (wtf?) he threw 22% fastballs, 40% sinkers, 38% sliders avg velo on his fastball, sinker, and slider was some of the best of his career I don't know what to make of this. The movement profiles must be horrible because by velo, things appear to have a bit more zip than last year. Dude had a 118 stuff+ slider in 2021 and 2022. It vanished overnight.
  2. Nimmala has an 84 wRC+ A few hot weeks and he will be fine. Striking out too much. It's promising that he has a couple homers and a good walk rate. Far from beginning to be worried about his numbers.
  3. Did you come into the world this way or was it like, childhood meningitis or something like that?
  4. He might be the best player on the team and he's cheap / still controllable. Definitely worth a lot, lol.
  5. Probably. Backloaded contract though, coming off a weak offseason for free agents.
  6. The farm system might be good enough to supplement a good team, but it does not have the pieces to kick-start a next window beginning in 2026. If they sell on 2024, they are necessarily selling on 2025 as well since that is part of this core's window. The payroll situation always pointed to a RELOAD for 2026. I really cannot see the correct way forward here. Perhaps a scorched earth rebuild is the way? Trade 'em all including Varsho, Gausman.
  7. Potentially worth a lot: Varsho Bichette (assuming he starts trending in the right direction) Gausman (assuming he starts looking like an Ace again) Worth a good amount: Kikuchi Jansen Romano (assuming he starts looking like himself) Worth something: Garcia Turner Might be worth something to someone? Vlad You might get a B prospect.... or D prospect... or international money... or cash... Richards (if he is shoving before the trade deadline) Biggio Mayza (if he is shoving before the trade deadline) Swanson (if he is shoving before the trade deadline) Cabrera (if he is shoving before the trade deadline) Pearson Someone might take on the contract? Berrios IKF (if someone is desperate for infield D) Green (he has to look great for a bit) KK (a team with no CF) Nobody is touching the contract: Springer Bassitt

    Saw some stat, if you measure by series wins in the last decade or so the Leafs are only above like four teams. Tied with a bunch of garbage franchises like the Coyotes with 1 series win. Haha
  9. "Projected pace" meaning add his rest of season projection to his current war 4.5 if you use ZiPS
  10. Varsho is on a projected pace for like 5 WAR Maybe the Moreno trade was great!
  11. I mean he still sucked but if he can touch 96 and throw that slider he's worth a couple more starts Then when Y Rod is back, decision
  12. I thought his stuff DID look much better
  13. I don't see any path to winning anymore They need to make the hard decision and fire people and sell The pitching isn't even good so how can they win? Bullpen all turned into pumpkins and Gausman/Bassitt showing decline
  14. His big move was just Varsho 2nd and Bichette 5th, lol They need to just roll with: Schneider Varsho Turner Jansen Vlad Bo Springer Player Player For now
  15. Says the overgrown pimple who makes excuses and quits everything in his life every couple of years
  16. There is a time to be responsive and a time to be thoughtful Thinking that Varsho is a high level option vs good LHP is just f***ing dumb, no other way to say it A pitcher you can at least just measure their stuff or command in a tiny sample
  17. Not for batter platoon splits Takes hundreds of PAs, multiple seasons
  18. You sure about that bro? You sure about that?

    Jesus Christ the Jays and Leafs might as well be the same franchise, eh?

    Can't stop watching all the pundits doing their Leafs post mortems and calling for firings and trades
  21. We will never know but The Big Contract was never JPR's strength A few examples. More money, more BJ Ryans?
