    I mean, we all saw this exact move happening, just didnt know which team he'd end up with. Objectively excellent defensive catchers with juuuuust enough stick to not be embarassing will always have a place in MLB somewhere.
  2. John_Havok
    Clement is more Arraez-ian. Except he can actually play defense

    Danny Thompson Jr bumped up to AA last night, 4 hitless and scoreless, 1 walk, 3K Good to see one of those Vancouver arms getting challenged Sean Keys continues to rake... he's on some kind of heater right now. HRs in back to back games, trying to kick down the door and make the Jays call him up while Vlad goes to IL with a brain injury
  4. John_Havok
    He could very easily slot in the pen as a lefty at some point this season if he remains healthy
  5. John_Havok
    Yeah, who needs a 20 year old SS in AA.
  6. John_Havok
    Davis Schneider could be a release candidate too if he doesn't turn things around. Can only hit .150 for so long before you get replaced. Rooting for him though

    Jay Harry moved up to AAA. 2-4 with a walk in his debut and also notable he was playing CF

    I just finished watching the highlights... to say that bunt decision was questionable is being extremely generous. Clement is a guy who gets the bat on virtually everything so theres a pretty decent chance he gets the runners moved over as one of his higher percentile outcomes, while keeping the chances that he knocks in a run himself. Calling for the bunt eliminates all of the run scoring outcomes(except for errors) while keeping all the s***** contact outcomes, for an increased chance at moving the runners at the cost of one of your last remaining outs. That said, if you get called on to bunt, popping it up like that is also inexcuseable. Do better Ernie

    Both pros, not prospects. Sasaki just didnt wait until he could be posted so had to be signed under amateur international free agent rules, but he was already a pro
  10. John_Havok
    What prospects from Japan? The only guys signed from there the vast majority of the time are pros The last high school kid signed from Japan was done by Oakland and i think another is in the NCAA waiting to be draft eligible.

    Yanks in Rogers Center are the Jays at the Trop.
  12. John_Havok
    Also nice to see Moon holding his own so far in the FCL
  13. John_Havok
    Id say an exceptional job on the margins. Its these moves that are keeping the Jays relevant this season while the parade of injuries was/is happening
  14. John_Havok
    Clement is the type of player you never go out of your way to extend to long-term 9-figure deals, especially when they're over 30. Just give up. The defense of "other GMs have done dumb stuff so that makes it possible" isn't even remotely relevant
  15. John_Havok
    That would be mind-numbingly stupid.
  16. John_Havok
    Taschin. They signed him last year interesting kid. This is usually the first stop for minor league rehab assignements too, like Cade Doughty right now as an example
  17. John_Havok
    In no universe is Clement getting 100+ million dollars as a free agent as a light-hitting utility IF when hes 33.
  18. John_Havok
    Would not have expected him to be above King, but thats great to see
  19. John_Havok
    Some kid named Kirk homered in Dunedin yesterday. Anyone have a scouting report on him?
  20. John_Havok
    Is he going to fall victim to Albert Belle syndrome in that hes obviously a HOF talent but got wrecked by injuries robbing him of the longevity factor?
  21. John_Havok
    Yeah, for a guy with his upside youd want to see more but yeah, its early. He's a 2-week hot stretch from looking good again to the slash-line scouts.
  22. John_Havok
    Its because its not defined at all in the rule book. It's pure interpretation
  23. John_Havok
    Exactly. They should just stick him in a room and show him his 2025 playoff highlight reel and say .. "whatever the f*** you were thinking then, get back into that headspace NOW" He went up every PA looking to do damage. Now it's like you say, just get something in play... inside-out everything just cuz he can... it's so annoying to watch a HOF talent play like a slap-hitting 2nd division regular.
  24. John_Havok
    Career best K rate, career best walk rate. Career worst Barrel rate of 7.2, which is below league average. He's basically swinging a pool-noodle really really fast.
  25. John_Havok
    Even comparing April OPS to May... .396 April, .730 in May. I hope June numbers continue this trend of improvement. He's also murdering LHP this season
