Not crazy about giving him 10 years just to lower AAV This is how the Padres backed themselves into a corner
-
Really that was their contact estimate? Feels very heavy
-
Good for Seattle. He seemed like a perfect fit there
-
Jim you can’t talk about emotional attachment and want to sign Bo to an 8/240 deal. Thats insane Let it be known I am against giving Bo 30M/year for 8 years. Just sign Tucker
-
I bet Atlanta has already told him he would be the shortstop. They have Albies and Riley so he’s not playing either of those positions. It will be interesting to see how important it is to him to stay at the six. Close to home for him too The Tigers would probably promise him shortstop too but there’s zero chance he’s going there -
Can just make a trade if they don’t sign a hitter Donovan Marte Abrams Buxton
-
They absolutely should but they won’t They haven’t signed a FA to a multi year deal since Ivan Nova in 2016. If you’re not going to even pretend to compete you might as well sell at the peak which is now
-
It’s not it’s 14M/year for the next 3 years Thats like Walker Buehler money. It’s 5% of a 280M payroll The Dodgers paid Mike Conforto 17M last year and he wasn’t even on the post season roster
-
Maybe a 1 year deal for Erin Sanchez?
-
Tatis doesn’t seem like the type of person Ross is targeting anyway

Toronto Blue Jays Are "In Every (Free Agent) Market"

Keep the cameraman away from him -
Ya the fit is fine next year but I was referring to this season
-
Agreed. His fit isn’t great positionally but you can’t have everyone playing multiple positions. He’s a switch hitter with 40 HR pop and he’s making like 14M/year AAV Can’t judge him on an injury filled season. Complete mulligan for 2025 from me.

Toronto Blue Jays "Expected to Be Suitors" for Pete Fairbanks
L54 replied to Matthew Lenz's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Much more palatable than the high end guys who are gonna get 15M+ -
Atta boy Gibby
-
I think it makes the argument for an international draft stronger when that happens I don’t like the idea of the union pressuring guys to do anything, if the market is free and fair then let guys do whatever they want. At some point the dodgers just won’t have room, frankly I don’t think they have room right now to sign Imai
-
-
Perfect. We want the DAWGS from Japan and not the guys riding coat tails
-
Guys coming back from Asia have had success recently so could be a nice addition. I think they’ll land a bigger fish though, Jays are going to spend and someone will take their money. Cant imagine they lose out on all of Cease, Valdez, Suarez, Imai plus trade candidates I would rather not spend on the bullpen. I would rather see a trade at the deadline to solidify it if they need to. I think there are enough good arms down there to start
-
Still not as dumb as the Pirates fumble f***ing their handling of Paul Skenes
-
Ketel Marte is definitely going to be available and would be an unreal get. Slot perfectly in two hole between George and Vlad, controlled through 2030 And then I agree completely with the upside risk since they got a sweetheart deal on Biebs. Plus Imai is so young for a FA just like Bo that you’re paying for like half of his prime and not ages 32-36
-
Not really sure what to make of him. I think I’m just velocityist where I don’t love committing to a guy with a velocity decline throwing 92 Id rather bring try and get one of these Temu aces than Ranger Suarez. If unsuccessful just do like 2 years for Merrill Kelly as a stability play instead of 5 for Suarez
-
Forgot this happened. There will be no return on that investment
-
Ya that is true. I also wonder how much the Jays aided in Yesavage’s development of that pitch as that might be a selling point for Imai along with a clear understanding of the splitter in the org Is having 60% of your rotation throwing a splitter and 40% a gyro slider giving teams too many looks at the same profiles? Might make Cease the better fit, I dunno!
