Cubs wanted Stroshow, Hutch & Sanchize for Samardz
L54 replied to HERPDERP's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Nobody ITT is arguing that. All Jonn said was that an infield of EE, Reyes, Castro and Valencia would be pretty sub-par defensively. That's like saying "I'd still rather have Miggy at third over Brett Lawrie". -
Thanks for the responses guys
-
Do you guys have specific strategies to picking players? I'm not the most SABR savvy guy, although I have a general understanding of them. Just looking for some tips when playing tournaments, etc.
-
Sorry gentlemen, had some things come up with school and literally had it close on me mid lineup. If you wanted to set one up tonight for tomorrow I would be willing to do that.

Can't see owners, players or anyone being interested in cutting out off days. The amount of money the make doesn't hide the fact that they're still human, and that their bodies need proper recovery time. If anything, the amount of money invested in players makes off days that much more necessary. Cut the season shorter, make the playoffs earlier, if you must. Regular season games shouldn't be going into October.

Yup, gotta be two bucks tho haha, my first 25 didnt last as long as I had hoped.

I did say retool, where you would keep the young players intact and roll with what you've got, somewhat like the Cubs are doing right now. I do believe that would be more fun to watch than the current group. That starts with trading Bautista which will never happen. All valid points, can't really disagree with any of them. I do think Stroman can stick in the rotation, along with Hutch. They could potentially fill the 2/3 slots on a good team. Right now I view them as solid 3/4's. I guess my only issue is that I don't see the downside in trying him as a starter. If he fails, then you can relegate him to the pen. Until then, I would prefer to see him start in AAA as depth to start the next year.

Hypothetically, if the Jays were to move into a retool, would you still advocate Sanchez to the pen? In a year that probably wouldn't mean much, wouldn't you be interested to see what he can do as a starter? I agree that as a back end reliever he would be successful. I feel like you're taking this stance though, so that in 3 years if he has failed (as most starters do), you can bring up this thread to say "I told you so". It's really not that bold of a prediction. Guys with plus velocity often don't have a problem finding a job in an MLB pen. That being said, he has been handled wrong. He should've been left in AAA/AA to work on his secondary offerings. If he makes the rotation out of ST next year, he's likely doomed as a starter, as he'll get shelled because his stuff isn't up to par due to not being given time to develop his secondaries properly. If anything, we should be talking about Sanchez as a September call up next September, and not what his future holds right now.

I love when guys pull the "more educated than you" card. Truly validates their superiority.
-
Will Big John be upset if I take the last free spot?
-
Haha done!
-
I'm in one 50/50 tonight, and already lost a $2 H2H early only match. It's all good fun. I ended up receiving free dinner last night because our service was s***, so I figured I'd use that money to sign up for FD.

What is usually a winning score in FanDuel? 27 ish?
-
Yup, you can!
-
Im good for the change
-
Singed up for the $5 game
-
Just signed up tonight. Going to try and learn the ropes before I play with you guys on here. Seems like fun though!
-
Considering reports were saying he wasn't moving for ~10 minutes, it could've been much worse. Neck injury, for example.
-
Great play!
-
This isn't true.
-
Reading on twitter that it is "just" a concussion, no other injuries. I guess we'll have to wait and see how severe it is.
-
Apparently Byron Buxton taken off the field in an ambulance tonight. Hope he is okay.
-
WTF ump
-
Rasmus must make the worst throws from the OF in the MLB
-
Couldnt decided between diving and keeping it in front. Ends up doing neither
