  1. "I learned after these months of the coronavirus that if you don't work hard, you can't be in the Major Leagues," he said. "Why do [Fernando] Tatis and [Juan] Soto put up good numbers? Because they work hard. I got the hits I got because of the ability that God gave me. But I knew it from the beginning. I know I did it wrong." Guerrero said he is now eating differently, cutting out fatty foods and ingesting nothing but water after 7 p.m. He is also reportedly working out at the Blue Jays' Spring Training facility where he's hitting, taking ground balls and doing weight training. ... I really like his quotes in the article. Obviously you have to back up the talk but he manned up and he has an eye on/is mindful of the guys that are performing better than him and why. All good signs from a 21yo kid. Most of you haters are just miserable Boxy’s
  2. How bad is Ozuna? I mean he’s got the potential to be a monster bat in Toronto. He’s got an arm anyway but I know there’s metrics showing him as negative defender but Fangraphs seems pretty harsh for 2020 considering he only played 20 games in the OF. In the 2 full seasons prior he rated almost neutral. That said, I’d rather have Springer for sure
  3. I wouldn’t kick either of them out of bed, that’s for sure Based on play I mean. No h**o:)
  4. Should’ve been a one-day thread now that there’s no Boxy
  5. Not one on your better opinions. There’s nothing wrong with the premise of MOY being based on perceived positive effect on win totals. Many normal working folk understand their bonus will prob be better if they beat their forecast rather than just make it. You may as well go one step further and just give everyone a trophy for trying their best
  6. If he has a good year Boras will be looking 7-8 years easy prob. If not 10. Springer will prob be 5, Bauer also prob won’t be lengthy deal Edit: thought Bryant was FA next year
  7. Why don’t they have the Steamer projections on the players main page on FG? They do that later?
  8. It’s still basically one year of ABs. Jason Castro had one good year in his mid-20’s and that led plenty of 20 team dynasty owners to roster him over the next 5 years. The results weren’t good
  9. What’s his Steamer projection? Because I’d think if you threw everything in a pot you’d come out with an average player. I have it on good authority that Jays fan do not take kindly to players making $10m year to be possibly average, even if it’s skill position
  10. While I stand be my assertion that there’s an ownership commitment level above the Jays, like a Steven Cohen or Ballmer. And while signing Ryu doesn’t disprove that, I concede it could be much worse than Jays ownership and I’m not going to s*** on someone that has optimism that they’ll do Jays right this off-season. We’ll see
  11. Short season was good for people like McCann. Can line himself up for a decent payday as a big upgrade for someone based on 111 PAs

    If you need the spread you’re prob cooked
  15. https://www.google.com/amp/s/jaysjournal.com/2020/11/02/blue-jays-vladimir-guerrero-jr-may-be-in-some-hot-water-following-instagram-post/amp/ Vlad caught showing his gat. Probably won’t go over with a lot of the liberal Mounties
  16. Meh Jays are always talking about adding payroll and linking themselves to every FA and trade target. Nothing new As others have said though, could be worse so there’s nothing to complain about I guess
  17. Yeah, we would all collectively cream our pants if anyone even remotely like that bought out the Jays. It’s basically a 60 year old man living out his 12yo dream.
  18. He’s asking the people on Twitter what they want to see the Mets do. It’s like a play toy for him
  19. Makes sense besides Ozuna I guess as nobody else is worth that aav. Gausman actually wasn’t worth it but guess they like him as SP
  20. Jesus Jim. Maybe the Indians are led by Covid worshipping doomsdayers like you. A vaccine is right around the corner. It may effect next year a lot or it may not, depends on the roll out of course but we haven’t entered a new era. There’s no reason for teams to be changing the construction of their team. There is plenty of reason to be concerned about their short term losses, sure. So not picking up this option, passing on this FA, etc is understandable I can tell you this. Any agent isn’t worth his s*** if he takes a multi-year “Covid price contract” anytime in the first couple months of FA.
  21. Is that a product diss on Axe? I didn’t understand the burn there.
  22. You’re speculating. As has been said, I think different teams will take vastly different approaches. You don’t think Storman will get close to that aav over 3-4 years at least? 4/80- 5/90 easy I bet
  23. I’m ok with being a younger, white Mr. Clean. He’s a bad mofo
  24. This was probably what Odorizzi’s agent said last year
  25. Look at Spanky getting snarky. Must be off to the races already
