    Almost done upgrading my team. Could be improved by a truly elite RP or two if anyone is selling

    Ray isn't allowed to smother the baseball in jizz anymore

    Charlie Montoyo is my spirit animal. Smile through the ******** in your life, guys.

    Pretty much! Someone might be able to point to a game or two but it would maybe be debatable. It's f***ing tough to properly deploy a s***** bullpen. Three games ago everyone wanted Castro used instead of Chatwood who blew the game... well look at Castro's ERA now. The pen just blows. It's s*** luck. Everyone should bask in it. Life is suffering and we all die. it's kind of funny and cool.

    Teams / people in the industry are a lot better at evaluating prospects now though. If you look at top 100 lists from this decade there typically aren't many complete busts in, say, the top 25. Outside of the top 50 is when you start to see the bust rate take off but you'll still see a decent amount of future stars in the 50-100 range. But the vast majority of prospects on your favourite team's top prospects list will break your heart.

    No, this is horseshit. Basically every reliever in baseball has a "decorated injury history". For most of them that is why they are relievers. Toronto's depth was fine/normal, they just got completely f***ed by injuries and s***** performances. So far.

    "someone who can actually help the pen" has to, you know, exist first. It's not about his timing whatsoever. Were you alive when he came back too early and got hurt again?

    Stop whining you f***ing pansies. Wow.
  9. Laika
    Not sure I like the Jud Fabian note in there though

    He meant league average, but let's be honest - Grichuk has a very flimsy skill set and he's like, one tick of lost bat speed or foot speed away from being literally replacement level. There is no upside anymore. I just don't see it. Hope for 2 WAR and pray he doesn't turn into a total pumpkin at some point.

    I think Toronto should front run the league and try to extend Charlie now while he isn't super popular. Classic buy low. Maybe a four year extension would do it?
  12. Laika
    Toronto has also drafted well recently so a pick from offering Semien a QO seems pretty solid.
  13. Laika
    I don't think they need any bats. Perhaps just a bench bat with great defensive skills. Relievers might be all they need. Could use one frontline starter of course but those are hard trades to make. Not sure they need to trade for SP depth - kind of depends on Pearson and the health of some other guys going forward.
  14. Laika
    Not comparable. Without looking, I'm guessing that Yankees team projected poorly and they were full of decrepit old farts. They probably had to retool or risk multiple years of mediocrity. Not the case with Toronto. I mean it depends how they play from here to the deadline. If they tank hard then they should sell, sure.
  15. Laika
    2nd best run differential in the division 5th best projected winning percentage in MLB rest of season If you throw in the towel and sell Marcus Semien you're a cuck, lol. This is a buy at the deadline team objectively.
  16. Laika
    Watching the Adams - McGuire tandem for a while shockingly makes one miss Danny Jansen and his adequate mitt / game calling. Mostly the game calling and rapport with the pitchers.
  17. Laika
    Delusional? The team is full of talent and projected / projects well. You sound like a jaded Leafs fan
  18. Laika
    You don't sign George Springer because you are in asset collection mode. They'll be looking to buy at the deadline unless they go on a massive losing streak soon
  19. Laika
    They are a few games back of a playoff spot right now and trying to win this year, lol. He's not getting traded unless they lose like twenty in a row right now
  20. Laika
    Really bad time to trade Gurriel and nobody wants Grichuk. But I would imagine Toronto will try to trade a catcher for controllable, good pitching. Probably Riley Adams
  21. Laika
    The obsession with Charlie Montoyo's emotions is a bit much. As much as you guys want to see him red faced and screaming, him getting angry probably doesn't help the team win. It's kind of an infantile form of leadership anyway. You could make a contrary argument that would be just as reasonable, actually. How about having someone in charge who doesn't get rattled by bad luck and the stuff he cannot control? That's a good thing. There's merit to Charlie's approach.
  22. Laika
    uhhhhh you are completely backwards and wrong, wow
  23. Laika
    Yeah he should be shut down and then progress through a throwing program.
  24. Laika
    Sad but perfectly valid comparison. Pillar is probably better than Grichuk, all things considered. Bad contract!
  25. Laika
    no.
