  1. Sure the trade offers could be the same as the offseason. Probably not but they could be or they could be worse or Vlad could be injured or the Jays could be 43-40
  2. You can make up as many scenarios as you want, but there’s like a 95% probability one entire season of Vlad is worth more than 3 months Holding him you risk injury, under performance, a Jays team that’s 3 games above .500 Of course the ship to trade Vlad this offseason has all but set sail with so many first baseman already changing teams
  3. I’m not either. I guess admin wants to have a cleaner set up with more defined lines
  4. Not going to lie I wish this thread was on the main board
  5. Ya Vlad is returning way more than Harry Ford as the center piece
  6. Newcomer is hard because hardly nobody new has shown up in years it used to be we had good candidates every year. I wanted to include it anyhow kinda feels like Jays24 really started posting regularly this year so I get that selection
  7. Newcomer of the Year: Brock Beauchamp Most Valuable Poster: BTS Humorist of the Year: Laika Most Insightful Poster: glory Ross Atkins’ Biggest Fan: Brownie19 Best Foreign Poster: Carlos Danger Thread of the Year: The Ship is Sinking Drama Queen Award: jaysblue Ross Atkins’ Biggest Hater: Masterbather Infrequent Poster of the Year: jerb Best Moderator: BTS Who do you think is the oldest poster award: Jim
  8. Please no crying if you win! (Or lose?)
  9. It’s been a while. I quickly found 2016 when searching the old board to get ideas for categories. Probably not the last one but it’s been too long
  10. I don’t agree with it either but looks like that’s what’s happening Jays are going to need SP’s in 2026 and beyond so Flaherty makes sense whether they’re competing or not. I don’t want to sign anyone with a QO because giving up 2026 picks does not make sense assuming this team wins like 78 games
  11. Welcome to the 2024 JaysCentre Forum Awards, inspired by Michael Scott’s Dundie Awards and Antonio Brown’s Crackers of the Year Been a while since these have taken place and now is a great time to revive them as we enter our JaysCentre era Voting closes January 2, 2025 Copy and paste the following to place your vote Newcomer of the Year: Most Valuable Poster: Humorist of the Year: Most Insightful Poster: Ross Atkins’ Biggest Fan: Best Foreign Poster: Thread of the Year: Drama Queen Award: Ross Atkins’ Biggest Hater: Infrequent Poster of the Year: Best Moderator: Who do you think is the oldest poster award: Good luck everyone!
  12. The path forward is sign No you don’t have to go all in. In fact I think that’s the last thing that should happen Saddling yourself with 50M in yearly commitments to Bregman/Santander and Pivetta, forfeiting picks to limp into July around .500 would not be smart I think it’s clear at this point they are fine with a) taking the comp pick for Bo/Vlad or b) trading them at the deadline if theyre too far from contention Nothing they’ve done this offseason suggests otherwise The only major player who makes sense at this point is Flaherty
  13. That’s fine I am giving Atkins very little credit yes. I don’t think he has any sort of autonomy and the whole org is a giant collaboration I don’t think Atkins is the reason the team had some mild success
  14. Don’t let your cat drink tap water 

  15. Vlad was the reason people wanted to play in Toronto. Without him it’s unlikely that the Jays are playing at the top of the FA market So while yes Atkins did sign these players it wasn’t because of his negotiation skills or players wanting to play for his great young core Which is the point I was trying to make earlier. While yes Atkins was the GM during these incredible four years, I don’t believe he did anything any other GM couldn’t have in Toronto Reasons to play in Toronto circa 2020 1) Vlad and Bo - AA regime 2) Rogers willingness to spend - Rogers 3) Brand new state player dev complex - Shapiro

  17. I hope we sign Jurickson Profar and Jose Quintana tonight around 8 EST
  18. Okay but not moving past 3/4 of a billion dollars is different than Beeston not doing business with Boras or not permitting contracts longer than 5 years lol
  19. First I’ve heard Didn't they just offer the largest contract in team history (again)?
  20. You don’t think anybody wanted to play with JB, EE and JD? Do you remember when guys were willing to pass the hat around to give Ervin Santana 12M?
