    Josh Donaldson announces retirement.
  2. John_Havok
    Urshela is coming off a broken pelvis that ended his season July last year. It's reasonable to assume there might be a dip in his skillset
  3. John_Havok
    It was confirmed he turned down 6/120 from the Jays at some point, and told them early on he wasn't coming back to TO.

    I'm still trying to figure out how the RC changes caused him to hit 400 ft flyouts to CF all year. The new dimensions caused sufficient wind changes that he could no longer pull the ball due to the wind resistance slowing down his bat speed?
  5. John_Havok
    Yeah but they sure nailed that Japanese market pretty effectively. Blank cheques are great for that
  6. John_Havok
    Its interesting though... all the predictions around here for regression only seem to apply to the Jays. Other teams players only seem to get projected to get better. Gotta love fans
  7. John_Havok
    That's 5 in the AB contingent now.
  8. John_Havok
    I guess I'm not convinced that a guy having his first plus year defensively at 30 is much to hang your hat on. I think it says something though when the team that has him at 3b for 7 million signs Chapman for 20 million at at his position instead when they're really close to the same projections offensively.

    That's not a good hack lol
  10. John_Havok
    Would love an O-bomb here.

    I'm ok with Barger in the majors, just not as some dipshit Vogelbach replacement. If he's up he needs to be in everyday. I dont see Barger and Vogelbach competing for the same spot.
  12. John_Havok
    Kirk with a fat powered HR.
  13. John_Havok
    Play was right in front of him too, just a piss poor decision to try for 3rd there. Out by like 20 feet.
  14. John_Havok
    DAmn... just a tick foul
  15. John_Havok
    I figure Espinal will be the backup 3b, Biggio and/or Clement as the backup backups I dont think there's plans to use Turner at 3b unless there's a TON of ongoing injuries, or a very weird one off in game situation in a blowout and they stick him there just because.

    Here's the statcast stuff from his last appearance on Feb 28th vs Tampa and FEb 24th vs Philly
  17. John_Havok
    Please explain your thought process here when the Jays have 3 extremely good OF, two of which hit LH and all 3 of which are capable of playing CF. The 4th OF for the Jays pretty much needs to be RH. I dont think Vogelback makes the team in any case unless he has such a monster spring that it can't be ignored, but even then his role is so limited in that he's a LH pinch hitter and DH who should never see a PA against LHP, why would you want to put a guy like Barger in that role when Barger actually has the chance to be an everyday guy?
  18. John_Havok
    HIs fastball is like 88-89 mph, throws a slider/sweeper, curve and change. Probably safe to say his stuff is similar to last year. He'd going into his age 37 season so probably not much new stuff to find. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/paolo-espino-502179?stats=statcast-r-pitching-mlb
  19. John_Havok
    Nice running catch by Roden there up against the fake monster.
  20. John_Havok
    Short attention spans when you're young. Something like that happens you move on to whats on TV
  21. John_Havok
    Not a fan of Vggelbach and Schneider's two strike approaches, both were late on the fastball. Vogelbach fouled his off and struck out on a back up elevated slider, but Schneider was just late. Stop guessing at what's coming boys.
  22. John_Havok
    Solid single for Kirk.
  23. John_Havok
    Single, walk and 3 run HR day.
  24. John_Havok
    Yeah. And the salary diff is like 600k between IKF and Davis. It's a marginal overall upgrade that impacts the IF defense in a negative way. If there was a way to acquire Davis and move on from Turner at the same time...I would support that but having IKF, Turner and Davis would make no sense.
  25. John_Havok
    Overall ..Davis would maybe result in about half win improvement over IKF, just changing out a defender for a bat. IF defense would be pretty suspect overall with Davis there instead of IKF, Bo...Vlad and whomever they figure plays second. Pitchers better hope they dont throw may ground balls. That's the argument for Davis.
