Los Osos Negros

There are four DDL teams/orgs that have never missed the playoffs. One has switched owners and is for sure missing out (min/p2f) Two are at serious risk of missing this year for the first time (dinger, featherd) The fourth is limping in probably as the 7th seed (me)
-
Could torontofan sneak into the 8th spot? Could GD? Looks like silvergun is taking his rightful place as #1. What a finish.
-
Is Dinger going to get dusted by KingKat in the final week to miss the playoffs? Wow!
-
Ted Williams is like, THE 80 hit tool. Many consider him to be the best "hitter" ever. He literally wrote the book on hitting!
-
Most people would probably say Trout is a 70 hit tool. There isn't really a common definition of hit tool but most people use definitions like: - ability to square up the baseball - ability to hit for average - ability to make contact Trout probably strikes out too much to get an 80. Altuve is the best current candidate. Other historic examples would probably be prime Miggy, Pujols, Mauer. Ichiro. Tony Gwynn! Probably Vlad too.
-
Pujols is a fun comp too. Ostensible 3B in minors, very low K rates, perternatural hitting skills. Hmm
-
I don't even know if you'd call it 70 raw to be honest. An 80 grade hitter can hit a lot of homers based on pure hitting skills. I mean maybe, I don't really know, but 80/60 can for sure = 40 bombs some seasons IMO.

Babe? Bonds?
-
Only offensively. The guy will almost certainly be a hard negative on the defensive side. Probably more of a ~7 WAR ceiling than the elite ~10

General 2017 Blue Jays Discussion Thread
Laika replied to reedjohnsonfan's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
He'll probably find somewhere to sign next year for ~10M. Holliday type deal. Hopefully not here. Pretty excited for the youth movement to hit. Alford-Pillar-Pompey-Teoscar at some point next year! Pearce UTIL/DL -
Did anyone post the Bo quote about Vlad yet? I will paraphrase. "He doesn't even know how to hit home runs yet. He doesn't have a home run swing like you see with big power hitters. He has 13 home runs this year and I think they've all been line drives that just never dropped."
-
You only have a 4 point (2 wins) lead. Very close.
-
This is my new rap name
-
There's no way I can technically miss the playoffs, right? Brutal final week for the squad. I need a new team name. Mine is kind of gay

Dunedin Blue @DunedinBlueJays After a Bo Bichette triple, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. DESTROYS a 2-run shot in the 9th! 5-3 Jays

Starting to get excited about the possibility of a top ten pick! BRING ME SETH BEER or at least BRING ME TRISTAN POMPEY

Bump If anyone decent is interested I'd also like to get rid of my team. -
z3r0s' team is fully capable of winning this week by a large margin though, making it impossible for him to drop. Exciting
-
Just throw it a little bit to make it interesting. You have the division locked anyway
-
Orgfiller is the new owner. Welcome, guy. L54 gets nearly unassailable rights to the next team, if one comes up. Org pm me your best email and I'll transfer the team.
