7 from the division lead. Tied for the second WC, ahead of the Yankees by 1 game, Boston by 2, Seattle by 4.
Angels have corrected nicely losing 9 of their last 10 now sit 5 back of the 3rd WC and are 1game under .500
It’s never the wrong move to draft up the middle guys unless they’re clearly better upside in college waiting to be taken. Admittedly I have not followed the draft lead up and rankings as much this season because of how few picks the Jays have in the top few rounds, but … a plus power hitting SS who can defend with no worries about having to move off the position seems pretty defensible.
30 doubles maybe, not exactly a power guy.
Looks like those high school bats in the 11-13 rank range are going to college. Gotta figure they’d be popped by now if they weren’t.
Nice pick by the Rays taking Taylor. I was hoping he’d get to the Jays
Until the morons calling pitches decide to throw one where he can actually hit it. Getting strike calls low and away and then decide to throw inner half for some reason. Terrible idea
Yeah, trade deadlines look more an more like financial deadlines in recent years.
Take any team who is out of it and wants to shed pending free agents to save money. Any team trading for those guys knows full well they’re only getting maybe 200PAs or …maybe 10 starts or less out of a starter…maybe a couple more if they do get into the playoffs. Some of the guys being traded will have…4…5…6 million left on their contract to the end of the season.
As the buying team, why would I give up any prospect of real value if I’m also taking on the money?
I Think the Jays need to have a planned parenthood meeting, everyone having their kids in spring training and the season, can nobody count 9 months and plan this s*** for the off-season? How many Jays have had a kid born this season already?
They’ve lost a lot of games to pat leave and it’s annoying.
