Buehrle was definitely one of the most watchable Jays pitchers I can remember
Buehrle
Halladay
Morrow
Burnett
Gausman
Estrada
Stroman
These guys were all fun to watch.
Bassitt is getting there for me too.
Yeah in comparison the Panthers' D is f***ing stacked
Ekblad, Montour, Forsling, Gudas, Staal... C'mon...
Guys like Brodie, Holl, and Schenn just don't compare
I like Liljegren though
I dunno dawg. He's been lucky by the wOBA / xwOBA thing in most starts. Or just plain horrendous in the first start.
xFIP is basically just a crude xwOBA type measurement. No reason to hate it.
This is what happens when you just let a machine AI computer model select your pitchers
Our big lump Alex Manure will probably never get injured. You can count on him (to walk 5 guys and limp through 5 IP).
I'm not worried about the Blue Jays to that extent.
Yeah the farm at this precise moment in time does not look good but that can turn around somewhat quickly.
The front office has also shown a continued ability to improve the MLB team, swing creative trades, etc.
Yeah these teams suck. Some might say that it's good for the NHL to have the expansion teams still in it along with multiple southern franchises that have struggled historically but...
I dunno.
Feels pretty stupid.
A Florida, Carolina, Seattle, Vegas final 4 is a nightmare for any real hockey fan. Just nothing to grasp onto.
I do it all the time but not for a guy like Semien
Renfroe I play matchups with in the DDL but that's because I have seven f***ing outfielders
I feel like if your roster lets you platoon Semien then you might as well trade him because he's a locked in starter for someone else...
If Shi is not misspeaking there then that might be more concerning than basics biceps inflammation. Because that might mean it has more to do with the biceps tendon that attaches to the shoulder. "biceps tendonitis of the shoulder" or something like that.
Long season remaining but the trade looks great for Arizona.
That doesn't necessarily mean Toronto loses the trade. It just means that sudden and decisive outcome that was a possibility on their end, where Moreno busts and Toronto just wins the swap outright, is certainly not happening.
Because Moreno looks like a stud. He's going to hit .300 this year with no power and be a 2 WAR catcher. Then he's going to learn how to poke enough homers to be JT Realmuto from 2025 onwards.
Gurriel is whatever. If he has a good walk year with the Diamondbacks, good for him and them. But he didn't have any substantial value at the time of the trade IMO.
What better MLB team to play in ENGLAND than the only Commonwealth team in the league?
Do people in St Louis, Chicago, New York, or Boston have the Queen mum on their moneys?
Poutine is basically just beans on toast if you squint. Or bangers and mash, more like.
