  1. Nah men there are exactly 3% too many black people in this 3d video f***ing justin trudeau
  2. The Coronavirus Rooftop! haha
  3. one of those high tempo guys with injury problems, look at the PA year to year so yeah... good player but horrible team and injury issues he is underrated though if you are in a draft or something where he is going 50th for outfielders. I bet his projections would be closer to late 30s.
  4. Reported the deal himself like the 6 tool champion he is Speed Power Hitting Defense Throwing Reporting
  5. I bet he was hurt at the end of the season. Pitching in pain
  6. Yeah Varsho is a low AVG hitter with pop for the most part you just want guys who can get on base in front of him so he's hitting 2 and 3 run bombs
  7. Varsho had three triples last year. "clogging up the bases" is mostly a meme like, hitting behind Kirk might stop him from getting one triple all season
  8. Well there would be less impetus because swinging away into a traditional defense would in theory = a higher chance to get a hit, versus swinging away into the shift. I don't think shift or no shift changes his odds of getting on when drag bunting. The second baseman typically has no influence on those plays unless the batter completely f***s up the bunt. It's normally between the P and 1B to kill that bunt attempt.
  9. But if they can't shift him maybe Varsho just doesn't feel the need to bunt as often
  10. I don't think it was a bad year for the farm system. The pitching depth in AAA + Nate Pearson completely s*** the bed but those guys weren't really prospect listers anyway. Lots of talent in the system took solid steps forward in 2022.
  11. Personally I think Barger is a top 100 prospect. Barriera has a case but it might be early. Orelvis has a case but I don't think he deserves it anymore. He's closer to 150. Warts are big. Zulu has a case but probably too much relief risk to make it. I don't think anyone else has an argument to be in there.
  12. counter offer him jonathan villar + a 3rd round pick in 2024 + the Royals' 8th best prospect
  13. BA is a scouting first publication and they anchor to draft-time opinions. They don't tend to shoot statistical performers up their rankings quickly. I wouldn't be surprised to see Barger on some other lists.
  14. His ADP is in the 80s in redraft leagues. He has immense dynasty value. Shortstop Aaron Judge is the upshot so... yeah.
  15. Yeah the Jays have a cluster of guys who might as well be backend top 100 prospects. So, don't worry.
  16. I don't think he's really the type of player you care about rotting on the bench. It's not like you would expect Lopez to develop into more than a useful bench player anyway. Now guys like Horwitz or Barger... maybe you'd prefer them in AAA playing everyday vs. being the last man on the bench.
  17. we will probably see one interesting name on a spring training invite someone like Stephen Piscotty, Matt Duffy. I dunno. KP.
  18. There is a chance that: 1. The Espinal/Biggio platoon at 2B is extremely good 2. Merrifield is a stud 4th OF That is kind of how I like to think about the roster - with Merrifield as the RHB 4th OF, ostensibly on the bench. Of course he can and will play a lot and play 2B too. If you think about it like that then a RHB OF for the bench seems like a luxury and not a need, whatsoever.
  19. It's funny though because his tools are not really "loud" visually Like, he looks more like Kole Calhoun on the field than your prototypical 5 tool player
  20. starting to seem like the Jays are content as is
  21. Yeah from the previous rough images both bullpens will stick out a bit. But the walls at the corners and in parts of CF might be a bit deeper. And walls will be higher. So all things considered it might play the same for offense, just with some quirks.
  22. They say they are bigger. Really they just need to add like one inch
  23. interesting not sure the best offensive C in baseball needed to change his swing but he looks good on film
  24. 100% who geefs a fock
  25. I am going to veto Chris Carpenter because he did give Toronto three solid seasons and a decent amount of innings. They also really had no choice but to not offer him a guaranteed deal towards the end. And I think his team control would have been up anyway! Yeah he blossomed later on but even if he was healthy that probably happens right? He peaked in his 30s so he would have been gone anyway.
