  1. I'm leaning towards Maroudis as one of a few names that could have a breakout year.
  2. Boras was probably on the phone before the MRI results were in to see what they would pay for Montgomery or Snell. Doubt they even entertain that though, they may as well resign themselves to 5th and sign a scrap heap guy like Vince Velasquez
  3. Is it really pride though? Dude has enough money for 10 lifetimes, why put himself through the AAA grind for a 99% pay cut.
  4. 6.5 hours, i do that every few weeks from Saskatoon to Lethbridge for conjugal visits while I'm in Uni and the wife is at home. When you have the ever impressive landscapes of southern sask and alberta to look at while driving though, it seems like 10
  5. Whatever, he could easily have been the tee
  6. It is. But …let’s say for for a second that Chappy did think the stadium changes were responsible for his poor numbers. How does he think they’re going to be any better in SF where hitters go to die?
  7. Josh Donaldson announces retirement.
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  10. 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?
  11. Yeah but they sure nailed that Japanese market pretty effectively. Blank cheques are great for that
  12. 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
  13. That's 5 in the AB contingent now.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Play was right in front of him too, just a piss poor decision to try for 3rd there. Out by like 20 feet.
  17. 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.
  18. Here's the statcast stuff from his last appearance on Feb 28th vs Tampa and FEb 24th vs Philly
  19. 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?
  20. 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
  21. Nice running catch by Roden there up against the fake monster.
