  1. Can't be an elite offensive player if you can't score. Looks like he is a playmaker whose defense has fallen off a cliff. Like a DH who can only hit singles. Very glad I dumped him on TCA for Schenn and Doughty.
  2. I guess you'd have to wait for him to get three starts. This is a reasonable case for a manual override though. There's really no sensible argument for making you wait for him to get P eligibility
  3. I feel awful for young first time home buyers but at the same time I can't see prices ever really going. If people can qualify for a mortgage I think they should just suck it up and ape into the market. It's a never ending real estate bull market in Canada.
  4. It's people from outside Toronto choosing to move up north. I have had multiple clients here selling for obscene amounts of money to Toronto buyers. They are selling for $800k here and then paying half that for a bigger house on the east coast or way up north.
  5. Lindsay doesn't have much going on. Maybe find a place in between there and Peterborough
  6. Palacios is a fringe CF at best. Davis can really go get it.
  7. Espinal and Davis hitting above Jansen, and those two plus Palacios all outperforming him in a laugher, has to just humble Danny terribly. Yikes he has a true AAAA stick.
  8. I think we need a Bo Bichette bobble count thread. Bobble Bichette.
  9. I don't think it's that simple. You don't have to let every player "fail" at the best position they might be able to play. Machado going straight to 3B was a fantastic decision by the s*** birds, for example. He was an uber-elite 3B and likely more valuable there than he would have been at shortstop. Bo's internal clock might be a bit too tightly wound for short. Less thinky more grabby throwy might suit him better.
  10. Chris Owings an illegal red flag add or did he not have a flag earlier today? I see that he played last night so maybe Fx took the flag off for a bit
  11. Gegrom is going to throw a 16 K, no walk, complete game one to nothing loss right?
  12. You're not wrong. They also let him practice third base instead of first for the last two years, lol.
  13. It's just so frustratingly obvious that the best defensive alignment right now is Bo at third, Cavan at second, Semien at short. It's awkward as f*** that they are all out of position because Bo wants to be a shortstop.
  14. He's athletic and aggressive but not spectacularly athletic. It's not like we see him make a bunch of 5 star plays in between the errors. He has been an inconsistent playmaker since entering the league. I'm not concerned at all about the bat. He's a preternatural hitter, but he's a third baseman. His tendencies and skills make it possible for him to be an elite defensive third baseman too. Machado or Donaldson skill set, sort of.
  15. Lawlar could go #1
  16. Beltre may never play with some of these guys so maybe it doesn't matter where he plays relative to them. My gut says Bo is a good 3B/2B, Martin is a 2B/CF, Groshans is a 3B/RF/1B, and Orelvis is a 2B. Whether Bo is playing short should depend on if a superior option is on the roster. Right now there is one with Semien...
  17. None of them are natural shortstops unfortunately. Bo probably has the best chance of all them. In the system there are Rikelvin De Castro, Estiven Machado, and Leo Jimenez. One of them might be more of a pure SS.
  18. Was just going to say that Zeuch was doing fine and kind of getting f***ed by inexplicable blown strike/ball calls up in the zone... but he seems to have lost it now. When he is giving up hard contact in the air it's over.
  19. He's a f***ing nightmare. Stone hands.
  20. Bo Bichette is a very bad shortstop. Sorry Bo. Time to slide over to second or third.
  21. Nah. Last thing I want it Buntoyo trying to play the hot hand. Tellez might be the odd man out once Springer is back anyway.
  22. Maybe we should have expected some of the younger players to come out of the gates slow, under the weight of expectations they've never really dealt with before. I'm not the least bit worried. If they suck at the end of April we can panic together.
  23. The players are still playing. It's not like it goes to a home run derby
  24. Ross Stripling needs to figure it out. We haven't even caught a glimpse of what he is supposed to be yet. In almost every appearance he has had as a Blue Jay he has been quietly pummelled. Just has a knack for giving up a handful of hard hit balls and three our four runs in like four innings of work. Sneaky bad.
  25. Didn't you trade for him in every league?
