  1. Yup, this is why I don't take it seriously, because obviously MLB doesn't.
  2. yup, though that makes a catcher's arm and pop times even more important, as does a pitcher's delivery motion when it comes to trying to stop the running game. Once robo umps start being a thing, and it is 100% coming, framing goes away and everything about catcher's defense will become about all the unmeasuables and their arms. If anything right now, the Jays and other ors should be drilling every single one of their pitchers to minimize their delivery times with runners on base, and making pop times and throwing the centre of everything as a catcher. Pitching deliveries probably being even more important.
  3. Dont let his LF numbers fool you, he's elite in CF. Its just that Kiermaier is beyond elite to the point of ridiculous.
  4. Yeah, its really hard to say whos even available when it comes to bench bats and relivers that fall into "controllable" territory. Its way easier to identity the soon to be FAs as potential targets. I still like Bednar as a target with 3 years left of control after this season. Problem, is Pittsburgh might actually think they have a shot in the next 3 seasons given the dumpster fire of a division and he might not be available. Same with guys like Classe in Cleveland, or any higher end reliever on any central division team.
  5. Sure. But ya cant do it with everyone, nor do you have any idea if they tried to and there were no takers. So whining about a non move is stupid when you have 0 clue of anything behind the scenes. Stuff like this is just hindsight "they should have forseen everything that could possibly go wrong and make sure they took steps to prevent that at some arbitraty point in the past that would assuredly make things better for today"
  6. Who, and what are you giving up to get him? Are you thinking a guy like Cease, Giolito? Jays need starter depth, 2 Pen arms (IMO) and a solid bench bat.
  7. Yeah, I like seeing the Ks but Manoah shouldn’t be walking 3 guys in 5 innings at AA. Higher strikeouts can be predicted by just being more free swingers in AA than the majors. Command is still likely an issue.
  8. So far 4 IP, 2 hits, 1 ER, 2 walks and 8 Ks.
  9. Could be worse, we could be sitting on the last half season of Shohei Ohtani and will be either A) trading him in the middle of their first real chance at a wildcard spot in years…or getting a comp pick when he walks at the end of the season.
  10. On a good run, but can go stone cold in a hurry

  14. I’d rather listen to her than Barker …or Jamie Campbell….or…nearly anyone except Siddall
  15. Vladdy +1 +1 for …me!
  16. Never hit Vlad with a pitch. Dude comes back next PA like he wants to murder the baseball and it's family.
  17. I really hate how far behind SN Now is from the actual action. It's like 4 pitches behind.
  18. Waht the f*** LOL - Pederson is apparantly Jesus in the outfield tonight
  19. Kirk also HBP. Fatties getting on base tonight thanks to the girth
  20. nicely done Varsho, bunt single up the 3b line. Perfect aaaaaaan erased on the SB attempt. f***.
  21. Nice play Whit, great job running that down
  22. Dont worry, it hit him in the fat. He's fine. Next PA he's going yard though.
  23. really good approach by Winn against Belt. Just throw high heaters until he proves he can hit them.
  24. Gausman.... maybe Romano or Mayza ?
