    Accessible and readable writing is a great approach in almost every venue of life. People with low IQs and poor reading comprehension LOVE: Bolded words Capitalized words Headings Lists Plain language (smaller words) Examples when appropriate

    Gimenez was 95th percentile sprint speed a few years ago, now he is 65th. Speed is gone. Not coming back. Sadness. That is a small part of why his hitting is down as well. He was probably able to beat out a dozen infield hits a year when he was 23 that just aren't happening now.

    Yeah but it's not going to happen. Traditionally Cease hasn't been one to go deep into games. Bieber won't be healthy enough to. Gausman might spin up some long outings. Just need the offense to wake up so there are some comfortable wins, for once.

    Rogers could pitch in 81 games and be fine but the other three you do worry about. Even Hoffman. Varland, Hoffman, Fisher, Flu. Yikes.

    I think the hard lesson that the 2026 Blue Jays are learning is that you can never count on defense when guys are on the other side of the aging curve. Varsho is almost 30, Lukes is almost 32, Clement is 30, straw is almost 32. They may not have modeled enough defensive decline in for these guys when they decided to ignore defense and bring in Sanchez + take a defensive risk on Okamoto. It's tough because of the above. He's a horrendous hitter and there are no signs of improvement but the team has put themself in a position where they need his glove in there every day.

    Could put Corbin on the Gentleman's IL. I have no problem with optioning Macko and cutting Seabold. I'd prefer to keep SWR for now
  7. Laika
    So Cease and Scherzer are starting tomorrow and the next day. Miles is a reliever now. Probably a 2+ inning RP behind Corbin or Scherzer?

    Some good news on a lot of injury front: Kirk will play 3 games in Buff and could be back Friday. Yimi rehab in Buff in two days. Bieber starts in Buff in Thursday and could be in MLB after that.

    I think if they have under 5 years of service time though, and reject an outright assignment, they forfeit their guaranteed money

    sucks to see the Phillies and somehow miss Nola and Painter, who both suck.

    Vlad

    I kind of like having Yariel around as "endlessly DFA-able bullpen depth" as MLBTR says.
  13. Laika
    Yeah he'd get claimed. Probably ends up traded for cash in a week
  14. Laika
    Is Brandon Valenzuela the best hitter on the team? Yes.
  15. Laika
    It's like if Kevin Pillar could hit
  16. Laika
    Clement is a stud.
  17. Laika
    Dumbest baserunning decision I have seen in a long time right there.
  18. Laika
    Trey has forgotten the art of dropping his splitter in the zone
  19. Laika
    Brutal
  20. Laika
    Jesus

    Aaron Judge out for at least two months Rays are a mirage Just keep staying in the fight
  22. Laika
    Dallas = bottom (AAA) Fisher = top
  23. Laika
    His cutter might be a better pitch than Fisher's fastball, which has terrible characteristics
  24. Laika
    Chad Dallas seems like a big league arm. He doesn't seem like a starter but you can imagine his spin being effective out of the pen. Sort of like Fisher.
  25. Laika
    The churn continues. Chad Dallas up, Juenger demoted, Tanner Andrews DFA'd. I am mildly interested in Dallas. He might be a reliever. Juenger does not seem to be an MLB arm. Macko MIGHT be an MLB arm as a team's #2 LHRP but I am still not certain. The stuff does not pop.
