  1. If they go to a hearing Vlad is winning my that all day long.
  2. Every arb eligible Jay has signed with the exception of Vlad
  3. The only next level for KK is avoiding the IL. If he does that, he’s potentially 3+ fWAR. With injuries…maybe 1-1.5.
  4. I think it’s the hamstrings and obliques that pop up every year for Jansen that most worry about, in addition to the freak injuries that catchers are far more prone to. Catchers just get beat up, they get hit by more balls than (insert your own joke here), so to also have a guy who has the more “strain” type injuries, it’s hard for me to want to extend a guy for 4 years. I’d be inclined to sign him for two or three max with a few options, and incentives for games played.
  5. Excellent work on fixing the issues juiced. Top shelf as always
  6. [ Here's MLBtraderumors projected ARB salaries for the guys lkisted in the above post, service time is in brackets. Trevor Richards (5.084): $2.4MM Danny Jansen (5.050): $5.2MM Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (4.157): $20.4MM Tim Mayza (4.156): $3.3MM Cavan Biggio (4.129): $3.7MM Erik Swanson (4.096): $2.7MM Jordan Romano (4.051): $7.7MM Genesis Cabrera (4.011): $1.4MM Santiago Espinal (3.149): $2.5MM Daulton Varsho (3.128): $5.5MM Alejandro Kirk (3.047): $2.6MM Nate Pearson (3.005): $800K
  7. NBA does do this sometimes, like they admitted a few nights ago there was a non call on Quickley that should have been called, and again last night in the Pacers-Celtics game.
  8. I think a lot of it is just the wild inconsistency of calls being made on certain players vs others. Like, whenever Davis drove the lane and finished, if there was any contact at all, he went to the line. Barnes gets mugged by Davis on a dunk, drive and layup, whatever it was….play on. If they were one-off types of calls you can understand a non-call or two over the course of a game, but when it’s so obvious from possession to possession it’s a bad look.
  9. I have Frenchy as yet unblocked, but his two obvious parrot accounts are
  10. Maybe, but why would you assume all else is the same? Is there not the chance that other guys also get back to their projections?
  11. True. I'm just rewatching the quarter now and there's many examples of the exact same contact that resulted in a fouls call on the raptors not getting called when Barnes is on the receiving end. I guess he's not a big enough star just yet.
  12. Justin Steele? maybe not quite enough track record to be in a top 10 convo but It would definitely not be shocking to see him near the top of any pitching leaderboard in 2024
  13. LeBron's quote after being told of Darko's rant.... "I felt like they fouled and we didn't" - not that you'd really expect him to say anything different.
  14. Nice refs last night in the Raps/Lakers game. 36 free throws to the Lakers vs just 13 for Toronto including 23 free throws for the Lakers in the 4th quarter vs 2 for the Raptors. That's just too obvious. Darko went OFF in his post game presser and is definitely getting fined.
  15. RJ went off last night against GS for 37, including 5/8 from 3, 13/20 overall.
  16. All of this. Soler should sign the next deal that comes his way that looks even remotely close to what Teo just got.
  17. Have you tried unplugging it and then plugging it back in again?
  18. It’s one of those things that many MLB players seem to have some pre-formed opinion about, but any who actually come here always say it’s one of the best experiences they have and never have a bad thing to say about the city or the org. NBA though is such a different beast. It’s much easier to become the face of a league when the sport is much more individualistic than baseball. Raptors just don’t have any visibility south of the border so players just want to go elsewhere for the spotlight I guess.
  19. From a money standpoint…yeah, but from a winning games standpoint it seems like a clear downgrade. Desclafani is maybe a 4 SP, Haniger will probably only get 200 PA and be hurt the rest of the time. Ray still has ace upside. Unless they are about announce a FA pitcher signing the move is puzzling from an on-field standpoint.
  20. Seattle and Tampa now working on a deal involving Luke Raley going to Seattle and Cabalero going back to Tampa. I guess Raley and Haniger can platoon?
  21. This trade makes zero sense.
  22. Part of what you say is true, but what about the chances that those teams you mentioned aren’t better? You have to factor that in as well. This is the kind of thinking that permeates fanbases, they always think the other teams in their divisions are the only ones that will be better and only their team will be worse. Baltimore won’t win 101 games in 2024
  23. The money laundering thing is related to him allegedly paying money to the mother, so maybe it’s a different definition of money laundering than up here?
  24. Yeah. I think the only team that would be a total surprise at winning the AL East is Boston. Baltimore will have tons of hype and expectations based on last years 101 wins, and mindless mouth breathers will definitely just say they’re the team to beat because they don’t think past last years win totals when it comes to projecting the upcoming season. I’d guess they’d project somewhere around 87-92 wins, just like Tampa, the Jays and the Yanks likely will.
  25. I’m guessing they might help take the edge off the side effects from the anti-psychotics he is clearly taking, but not very regularly.
