    He was trusted with high leverage because there was nobody left. All the top guys were unavailable and everyone else pitched before him the game. I guess its good they felt he was the best option of the bottom 4 though

    Oh definitely far more to it than the simple numbers i posted, no doubt. I think the biggest takeaway was the centralized revenue sharing, 50/50 split players/owners ans rising floor and cap as revenues grow which are objectively good ideas even if the numbers they put out there fir the cao and floor are a bit ... off. Thing is, the owners will say these things are only on the table with a hard cap and floor, which the PA will fight against with everything they have. I remember back to the days when the NHL was going through this exact thing, losing shitloads of games and money and thinking " come on, everyone knows youre going to end up with a cap and floor, the solit will be 50/50 and the numbers will change as the money pot grows... just get it done already"... but no, both sides had to try and nickel and dime the others for optics. It's really tiresome to know exactly where it has to end up eventually, but have to watch the trainwreck first

    Gonna have to be until the starters get healthy again. Having 2/5 games right now as pen days is driving those numbers up bigtime.

    Owners offer today! Key details of the owners' offer include: Cap and Floor: A maximum team spending limit of $245.3 million and a minimum team payroll of $171.2 million. Revenue Sharing: A 50/50 split of baseball revenue, alongside centralized sharing of local media revenues to combat TV blackouts and reduce the spending gap between small and large-market teams. Tax adjustments: A "competitive-integrity tax" for low-spending teams, mirroring the luxury tax penalty. Teams currently over that proposed cap = 6 Teams currently under the proposed floor = 15

    One will never happen without the other so...the question is rather irrelevant

    Lockout more likely. I wish i had faith they were smarter than this and will capitalize on the MLB's momentum in popularity and not risk alienating fans but, I feel like this is the year where the owners get stupid and demand a salary cap and dig their heels in

    Davis Schneider is 2 for 2 with 4 walks since returning to Buffalo. AAAA guy??

    Nimmala was lifted in the 4th inning of today's Fisher Cats game. Hope it's nothing serious.
  10. John_Havok
    Laughable, but what do we really expect from a first offer.
  11. John_Havok
    The Jays can probably get another year in the minors due to that injury amd time off. They just have to ask for it and make a good case
  12. John_Havok
    I doubt that very much. He may have underperformed last year, but he's way over performing this year. K rate higher, walk rate lower, ISO up by 20 points, SLG up by about 100. I'm just saying his hot start is not some new normal. He's a really good defensive SS having a good few months. We saw Gimenez so the same just last year before falling back to his "normal" Granted, Otto's offensive normal is probably higher than Gimenez's
  13. John_Havok
    He's in High A ball... Trey pitched at both AA and AAA before coming up. Surely you're not advocating for calling up Perry straight from A+ ball in a season where he's fresh off of UCL surgery recovery and definitely going to be on a hard innings/pitch cap before being shut down.
  14. John_Havok
    xwOBA roughly the same as last year. he's a 2 WAR SS currently riding the babip dragon. Regression is near. Same as Espinal's hot start all those years back that fueled him undeservedly to the AS game
  15. John_Havok
    Wow... Pinango made the catch but wtf was that body positioning ... very lackadaisical. He is not a good OF.
  16. John_Havok
    unluckiest team in the world right now. Runner going, ground ball that would have gone straight to the 2b bag and got them a DP... but of course it has to deflect of the pitcher's foot.
  17. John_Havok
    Okamoto is all kinds of messed up in the head right now.
  18. John_Havok
    That front door sinker is something so many hitters are sleeping on....
  19. John_Havok
    I'm so down on the Jays offense right now like to see Sanchez bunt.
  20. John_Havok
    Wow, imagine swinging at a middle middle pitch and good things happening!
  21. John_Havok
    Watches a meatball middle middle... what are we doing here folks?
  22. John_Havok
    Level of hatred for Sosa is rapidly approaching levels not seen since(insert name here)
  23. John_Havok
    I mean, if there's anything a guy suffering from vertigo needs, it's a baseball to the head.
  24. John_Havok
    If there's a piece of SSS splits to give a glimmer of hope, Alcantara is giving up nearly an .800 OPS (.787) to LHH this season.
  25. John_Havok
    I'm more interested in why Lukes is sitting. After Pinango's adventures in garbage fielding yesterday I would probably give him a day off and put Lukes out there.
