I had a dream where Cano got Safeco'd to death and Chris Davis bounced back to a 40 HR player.... Oh wait! That's real life!
-
I'm adding my 4th to the AnibLOL / BuchhLOLz trade.
-
Where the purple at?
-
You need a SP? Should of kept Buchholz. I'll open the bidding with Raisel for Betances.
-
phenomenal?
-
I don't really know where people come from. Ask a native. There's probably a reliever tree on the back of a turtle somewhere up in the Muskokas.
-
Actually, I look exactly like Kyle Chandler. Exactly.
-
Because he only looks good as a reliever, and relievers grow on trees.
-
Considering trading DL Ace Clay Buttholez for a slightly inferior but healthy SP. Call me on my landline if interested. Or, just if you want to hang. 867 5309

GD looks like Woody Allen on stilts

Everyone who is between 20 and 35 knows offhand what 50 cent looks like... it's like you, a 12 year old, knowing what Drake looks like.

where can I buy a fresh black and gold Raptors KD jersey?

His velo is noticeably up in recent starts, but it rose as the season went on in 2013 as well. http://www.fangraphs.com/pitchfxo.aspx?playerid=1245&position=P&pitch=KN Lots of pitchers see gradual increases in velo as the season progresses.

no.

Anything can happen with Alex Anthopoulos. The man could literally move a mountain and it would be a less impressive feat than moving Wells' contract or acquiring Josh Donaldson.
-
So KD was at Price's debut today in Toronto, and he's on Drake's side: Kevin Durant @KDTrey5 Haha the boy too good #6ickos Future Raptor?

You are a good salesman.

Dickey has a 3.99 ERA as a Blue Jay, in almost 3 years. Leake has a career 4.17 FIP and 3.86 ERA in the NL. He's probably a ~4.20 ERA guy in the AL East. Maybe worse. I'd take Dickey over Leake in 2016. But, there are other ways to cut the stats to suit other arguments and I will acknowledge that.
-
smells like Lorenzen to me. you should try reeeeeaaallllly hard to trade him before the stats get bad.
-
All of those guys should get multi year deals, and some of them for a lot of money. The fact that Dickey is only a 1 year commitment is a luxury. It would be silly to turn down his option just so you can commit 4 or 5 years to a similar but slightly inferior talent like Leake. I love Kuma but since he's a Jap, I doubt he'll leave the West coast. Kazmir will get big money like Ervin Santana (maybe more). Gallardo is a real time bomb, and his peripherals are garbage this year.
-
I think Dickey's option is $12M. The Blue Jays will need to either pick up Dickey's option or convince Buehrle to return. Hopefully both. They've traded all of the decent upper minors SP depth, so the innings will be crucial. The closest legitimate SP prospects are in Lansing and below so they won't even be serious options in 2017. Maybe if they lose in the Wild Card game or something like that, Buehrle will be thirsty enough to come back for one more year. Dickey is on pace for another comfortably above average year, by RA9-WAR. I don't see any reason not to pick up his option. Stroman Buehrle (please) Dickey Hutch Trade Saunders for someone? Maybe deal Edwin? Try to attract Colon on a one year deal? Buy way low on Bud Norris? Mid-sized deal for Wei-Yin Chen, Mike Leake, Doug Fister, or Ian Kennedy? I doubt they throw money at a SP like Kuma, Zimmerman, Shark, etc. But they didn't trade all of their SP prospects without some plan for 2016.

Blue Jays claim Ben Rowen from the Cubs

Not even. He probably sits at like 80mph. Think Chad Bradford. -

I love Ben Rowen. Minor league career: 262.1 IP 1.89 ERA 2.69 FIP 63.8% GB .271 BABIP against Basically, he's as extreme as a GB pitcher gets and he's been an elite run preventer in the minor leagues. Hopefully he sticks around for 2016 and gets a pen job.
