Such an interesting organization
-
Milone > Roark -
The days of the bench being mostly veterans are sort of gone. Lots of teams give those spots or most of them to young, cheap players now.
-
He's lost at the plate right now but be fair. He has had very good plate discipline at times in the past (2020 and in the minors) and has paired big raw power with contact ability. I'm not convinced he's a starter on a good team but he could make it and he could more likely be a good role player. If everyone is healthy in Toronto he could be on the bench and he's a nice guy to have on the bench.

James Paxton just broke down. Sad.

GDT - Jays vs Rangers Game 2 - April 6th @ 8PM ET
Laika replied to BTS's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I don't see any justification for keeping Roark around. Surely any of Zeuch, Kay, Thornton or maybe even Milone would be just as good or better. Or just call up SWR... every game matters. -
I wonder if the performance was affected by the injury. I think he's worth considering if the scouting data from prior years has his upside up near the top of the draft. He basically has no college sample - only a couple of games in 2019, then covid, now this.

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2021)
Laika replied to TwistedLogic's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Tellez isn't just having bad results - he looks lost. You could justify benching him based on scouting I guess. He is swinging at terrible pitches, hacking. Blech. Looks nothing like 2020 Rowdy and everything like the guy I thought was a replacement level player before 2020. -
Yeah Trent Jr. might just be a better two way player than Powell like, right now so that trade looks very cool.

This is surprisingly good https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/video/breaking-guerrero-jr-s-swing-season-compared-last/ -
I don't see Leiter's delivery as that high effort. I see very quick but sort of smooth. Jaden Hill TJS. Was mocked in the top 10. Available at 19 now?
-
Uh huh........

Julian Merryweather is similar to Sam Gaviglio - Grant77
-
That's okay. Your first welch
-
I still don't get it. I'm looking at the transaction history and you added three guys on Monday the 29th and then two more on April 2nd. That's five adds this week. I think tomorrow they might reset... Not sure though
-
I put Akil Baddoo, Luis Oviedo, and Hirokazu Sawamura on debut waivers. Anyone other noteworthy debuts this weekend that should go on waivers? Note that if anyone played on April 1 they were claimable last night and are now just fair game.

Covid19 is going to decide some playoff matchups and that sucks
-
It was a Thursday afternoon game. Generally, I think more and more people get their sports discussion kicks on Twitter these days. Not sure people really search out message boards that often anymore
-
It definitely seems like there is no coherent plan. Compared to many other MLB orgs with established front offices and systems I'm sure the Mets are a bit of a mess internally - money doesn't make you functional. I wonder if Cohen regrets some of the stances they took in free agent negotiations in hindsight
-
I think Cohen just got out maneuvered. Lindor's agent played it perfectly and milked every dollar out of them.
-
I figured with the Mets willing to do 10/$325 there was no way a deal would not happen. Any indication that Lindor was not willing to accept 325 was posturing.

Official Spring Training 2021 GDT/discussion thread
Laika replied to Ray's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
But increased velo misses more bats. Even if Zeuch's K rate goes up only a few percentage points it could be a bit deal for him -
He hasn't necessarily turned it down yet. Maybe he will last minute.

I cried

It's not that hard to lose a big chunk of weight when you are a fat ass. Very realistic weight loss for a guy his size, with a personal trainer.
