  1. we don't have numbers or anything but looks like it will be a bit deeper right down the lines and maybe in RCF LCF but also a bit closer where the bullpens push in but from all the stories, the big change will be the reduction in foul territory next year as all the infield seats come in. that will be when the general offensive park factor trends up the most.
  2. right right kinks
  3. the fences aren't really moving in or out IIRC the seats are moving down to meet the fences and the height of the fence is becoming irregular
  4. Yeah but Fenway always has the geographic argument. It had to be shaped like that because of where it is. The Yankees only had that argument in the old stadium. When MLB let them copy the dimensions for their new ballpark, it really ruined the short porch. Made it something commercial.
  5. Well, Baltimore just moved the fences back. I think for the most part the tweaks are happening as teams seek more neutral park factors. Nobody really likes extreme ballparks anymore. For the Jays, it has nothing to do with the game though and everything to do with the fan experience and making the ballpark better. Baltimore might have overdone it though, lmao. I remember that ball Merrifield crushed there late in the year that died on the track. I could not believe it.
  6. fence adjustments are all the rage these days
  7. basically, CF fence is coming in 10 feet and the fence in centre and right field is being reduced to 7 feet high everywhere probably not a massive change but it turns their CF-RCF from something stupid to something normal. Maybe a few extra HR for Riley Greene and Torkelson now.
  8. I embezzled the payment
  9. I vote better but I think it's a push. They do lose a bit on the sticks by swapping out Teo. Also, like him or not Tapia is probably a slightly better hitter than Kiermaier. But I think Vlad has a better year and negates all that. Also, baserunning should be a lot better. I also like Merrifield to be a league average hitter.
  10. Probably signed him to an MiLB deal because of this tweet, self-advertising
  11. They cut Merryweather? This will be my last post. I will no longer be a fan. Goodbye forever.
  12. Love the trade but Thompson is behind Kikuchi and White.
  13. Use your brain Guys like Thompson are in fact harder to find than guys like Fernandez
  14. Really nice deal Zach Thompson is a great depth P
  15. That’s insane. I wonder if he has opt outs and stuff. The medical concerns must be legitimate. Very concerning
  16. They've probably just decided to go over this year. What matters is what your luxury tax payroll is at the end of the season. So no real sense in getting just under the threshold now... then you can't even make any deadline acquisitions.
  17. Yeah less time commitment + football is much, much less about actually watching the sports game lol
  18. Biggio is getting traded to the As in the Laureano package duh
  19. I guess the "oh wait they have more money?" wish list would be Mancini or Profar Danny Duffy or Wacha (puke) Chafin
  20. Best is probably strong side platoon DH. And backup 1B. RHP Kirk C - Jansen C (50/50) Belt DH LHP Kirk DH Jansen C
  21. He should be a platoon second baseman for someone. That's his actual ideal role.
  22. Biggio can only play all over the diamond if you squint so hard poo comes out He's not a good 3B, doesn't seem like a natural OF, and probably isn't a great 1B. He has more defensive value than Belt of course but perhaps not much more for Toronto in particular because Merrifield and Espinal can play 2B and Merrifield can play a better OF and Espinal a better 3B.
  23. Yeah Biggio might be in a trade right now.
  24. lol uhhhhh alright
  25. They could still sign one to bump Lukes down. Bench of Espinal, Biggio, Belt and new RHB.
