    Just a weird decision by the new skipper to use Richards. Cimber and Garcia were both available. Phelps and Mayza too, they only threw 3 and 6 pitches the day prior. So with Romano, Cimber, Garcia, Phelps, and Mayza all usable why use Richards in the 5th inning of a close game in a high leverage spot? Makes no sense. Even pulling Gausman is a questionable move. It was Albert Pujols. Yeah Guasman wasn't on his A game but it's Albert Pujols vs. Kevin Gausman. It should not matter at all that Pujols managed to poke a couple of hits off him earlier in the game. So this is decision #2 that was bad by John S. First one being when he used Banda in that one run game.

    Michael Harris looks good. Spanky looks dumb.
  3. Laika
    fun fact he has 0.5 fWAR in 94 games
  4. Laika
    Seems like a decent return IMO Benintendi is a ~3 WAR player so 60 games of a 3 win player isn't going to fetch the moon A comparable package from Toronto might be say Hayden Juenger + Dahian Santos + Sem Robberse

    K-BB numbers look *fine*. You never know what guys are working on. He was also starting... maybe the logic here is that he's just a reliever so make that decision now and see if he looks like an MLB reliever in AAA at the moment because that could help this year. They were handling Juenger in a fascinating way. Starter's schedule but he would only ever pitch 2-4 innings. Seems kind of weird. Maybe that's thought of as a "safe" way to develop relief prospects? Like, you don't actually want them throwing 100% max effort innings and back to back days and all that stuff until they are in the show?

    Adam Dunn hitting exactly 40 home runs 4 seasons in a row is one of the best baseball things ever
  7. Laika
    When Adam Wainwright is getting calls three inches off the plate... Game over lol
  8. Laika
    Okay Benintendi doesn't suck but he's a super boring player that might give the Yankees like 0.6 extra projected WAR. Looks like a couple of the arms they gave up are actual prospects Fair trade but it doesn't make the Yankees any scarier
  9. Laika
    Benintendi sucks
  10. Laika
    They show them on baseball reference on the player minor league page
  11. Laika
    so hard to see them adding any position player at all
  12. Laika
    The 2006 Toronto Blue Jays were #2 in wOBA but #12 in MLB in runs scored. Go figure.
  13. Laika
    yeah i do this every week some loser here laments the loss of rowdy tellez i pull up his fg page and it's meh he might even make toronto a worse team if still here all things considered
  14. Laika
    They do say in the text that Ohtani seemed impossible to place and they don't think either team would trade one for the other
  15. Laika
    well the general point stands basketball, 1 elite player on his own can still make you a contender foosball 1 elite QB can have a massive impact in soccer i guess 1 elite player has a bit less impact because of the nature of the game, they just cannot touch the ball the whole time similar for hockey because of shift lengths and there being 4 lines... baseball though, has to be the sport where 1 elite player has the smallest individual impact

    man remember Jesse Litsch has to be one of the most random Blue Jays careers 24th round pick from a state college fat ginger inexplicably good from day 1, a command artist sort of, good in MLB at age 22 and 23, then gets like a flesh eating disease from a cortisone shot or something and his shoulder falls to shreds. Towers and Chacin just made me think of him.

    Nobody before Vlad. I think Snider was their best ever at like #6
  18. Laika
    Jose Altuve didn't hit for any power in the major for like 4 years Lindor I don't think hit for much MiLB power It's not that hard actually to find elite players who didn't show pop until MLB or until they had some MLB experience It's incredibly hard to hit for power without selling out. It's like the pinnacle of baseball offense. Very tough nut to crack.

    Jose Ramirez had a .077 ISO in 533 AA PAs Then ISOs barely over 100 in AAA and MLB for a couple years
  20. Laika
    Oh wow no they jumped him over Corbin Carroll and Grayson Rodriguez. Greene and Rutschman graduated. Moreno was #5 last month.
  21. Laika
    I think just graduations

    I like it a lot but it's more of a chat room than a message board

    this is the main thing I want reduce capacity slightly so the seats are all a few cm wider, and point them all towards the infield. and yeah cupholders in most sections would be cool.

    Can we even delete accounts? I don't see the option. Was looking for it earlier this week, to murder grant.

    This value for Groshans is probably outdated, too high, sadly.
