Well I think all those guys have options
Actually all FOUR could even fit on the MLB roster right now if they dont roster three f***ing catchers
And it sounds like April rosters may be expanded
Kevin Smith, Biggio, and Espinal are all cool dudes
I kind of want all of them to have a reasonable chance to steal a starting spot
But I dont want to two of them to be starters by necessity
Thats why Villar fits a bit
Surprised nobody else is saying Donaldson.
Best position season in franchise history. And 4th best too.
Best position player on a per game or PA basis in franchise history, I think.
Was on some of the best teams in franchise history.
Basically got as much hardware in 3 years as Delgado got his entire Toronto career.
Short tenure ofc but 3 seasons of greatness is at least 50% longer than the Clemens-Toronto marriage.
I love Delgado's longevity and consistency but I find the thought of him toiling away on those Jays teams so depressing
Eno Sarris is factoring in job insecurity or suspension risk evidently.
Personally I'm on taking him in redraft with a massive discount... Not sure exactly where though
I do not want Villar but he projects to be useful in some role and was okay last year.
If Toronto signs him I'll applaud Ross for not letting bias get in the way. It really should be completely irrelevant that he was bad here for 22 games in 2020...
Nah it's Kikuchi.
Berrios
Gausman
Manoah
Ryu
Kikuchi
Pearson / Stripling
Although they might line Manoah up 4th or 5th. But the above is the talent order.
Kikuchi has velo but has basically been average and average in both respects. And projects as a league average SP.
The contract is fair. He might have a bit of upside left.
Steven Matz is an interesting name for him to land beside. Can't help but feel like Yusei is at least a upgrade on ol' Matz whose skill set was absolutely maxed out in Toronto
