    Wait a minute I wonder if Jose Bautista wants to manage?
  2. Laika
    yeah maybe Vlad has been saving 20 more homers for the next few weeks
  3. Laika
    Pitching + Defense strategy still requires a big hit most nights Toronto is allergic to the big hit

    The definitions are just wrong. https://old.reddit.com/r/HighEndEscorts/comments/16h89qb/nyc_thriving_business_died_out_of_nowhere/

    it's a recession, bros
  6. Laika
    Yeah it would help if one of them stomped the other. I think they play 7 times.
  7. Laika
    I dunno. Toronto is f***ed. Seattle probably goes 10-6, Texas probably 10-7.
  8. Laika
    Yeah P2F is always one of the more serious/competitive owners
  9. Laika
    Hilarious that Toronto could not muster a single run against an injured Max Scherzer who was throwing cement mixers down the middle most of the night

    He'd be a f***ing idiot to turn it down Unless his dad is a millionaire

    20M in total is like 700, 700, 700, 4M, 6M, 8M why would you think about AAV when the player has to make six figures for three+ years to begin? 20M is like guaranteeing him more than some people think he would be expected to make in arbitration anyway. Like, lots of people probably still don't expect him to even make it through arb without getting non-tendered.
  12. Laika
    I disagree that MLB economics are much different than five years ago. The arb system is the same and the $/WAR hasn't inflated that much.

    Aaron Ashby 5 yr, $20.5M (2023-27), 2028-29 club options Evan White 6 yr, $24M (2020-25), 2026-28 club options Garret Whitlock 4 yr, $18.75M (2023-26), 2027-28 club options These are all extensions currently running. All were notable prospects, though.

    It lines up incredibly well. Surprisingly good former non-prospect who is old when he debuts Obviously nobody knows what Schneider is thinking. All the team can do is open the conversation. But he might be an idiot to "bet on himself" and turn down twenty million dollars.
  15. Laika
    I dunno. He got a $50,000 signing bonus 6 f***ing years ago and is now a nearly 25 year old father of three who nobody thought was even a prospect How could he even justify turning down $20M guaranteed?
  16. Laika
    Vlad + Varsho + Kirk are the problematic ones All the others are just bad luck / injury / age. Well, maybe. I think Springer has had a pretty bad approach at times this year. Espinal is a broader coaching problem. I don't really like the way he has seemingly been training. Chapman has done some weird stuff this year with his offensive approach. But he overperformed heavily in the first month so his WAR was steady.
  17. Laika
    Good question My only idea is that the source of power was in fact Le Barrio or the Homerun Jacket
  18. Laika
    It's worth considering for sure.
  19. Laika
    Pain.

    PLAYER --- 2022 WAR --- 2023 WAR Vlad --- 2.9 --- 0.4 Varsho --- 4.8 --- 1.6 Springer --- 4.3 --- 2.2 Bo --- 4.5 --- 3.1 Chapman --- 4.2 --- 3.2 Jansen --- 2.6 --- 1.9 Kirk --- 3.9 --- 1.3 Biggio --- 1.4 --- 0.7 Espinal --- 2.3 --- (0.1) 16.6 WAR decline from these bats in one year Of course, the pitching aside from Manoah and Cimber has gone in the other direction. But Manoah's 4.1 to (0.4) negates the positive trends from Kikuchi and Berrios.
  21. Laika
    The Jays are going to host the Yankees and get shutout three games in a row by like, Jhonny Brito, Michael King, and Randy Vasquez. The five rookies filling out the NYY lineup will all have multiple extra base hits. Yimi Garcia will throw lots of strikes and still give up 2 runs blowing a tie in the 6th inning It is prophecy
  22. Laika
    lmao it hurts perennial bridesmaid team forever #3 in the division
  23. Laika
    Hard agree f*** everything
  24. Laika
    Bichette is pretty close to a sstar I dunno. The organization was utterly incompetent until like 2014 and then it becomes aggressively focused on a short term window before a retooling period. It's not surprising to me that it wasn't a star factory. The Toronto Blue Jays have arguably only been a fully functional organization for like the last 8 years or so.
  25. Laika
    Hill, Lind, Marcum, Cecil, Sanchez, Stroman, Bichette, Manoah, Osuna, Guerrero, Biggio, Jansen, Pillar, Kirk, Romero, Janssen. I don't think you can count Romano since he left the org. But debatable.
