    No doubt. Id hate to see him leave but even if he ends the season with a wRC+ around 150-160 he's going to have a lot of teams kicking down the door. He wont be getting those SS type of deals, but a 5 year guarantee upwards of 120 million is probably a sure thing. Aside from the hip issue he;s never really been hurt. He runs the bases well, still has above average speed at 30 whilst playing a corner IF position and is money on D. Hell, even if he hits at a 120 wRC+ like he did last season he's a 4 WAR player. I'd be sorely tempted to try and get him to that 5 year 125 million dollar extension now. Problem is he'd be insane not to test free agency. It will likely be his only chance at getting that 200 million dollar payday from some team that doesn't care about his age 36+ years. also,... who the f*** carries a .486 babip after 28 games???? That's so far past insane

    You're assuming he has complete autonomy in these decisions. It's a great assumption, but I think in today's game there's a lot more that goes into these things. I'm not saying Atkins is sitting up there calling down moves to the bench or anything, but there's going to be certain directives that Schneider is going to be somewhat bound by at any given time. Last year there was obviously a directive that Tapia was going to be given every opportunity to show whatever he had. Right or wrong (wrong... obviously) if Schneider is told to make sure Tapia goes in first for defense in scenario X, Y or Z, he does it. There's probably a whole list of matchups given to him by the analytics dept for every series that matches up our hitters and their pitchers, our pitchers and their hitters, ideal situation to make changes (or not make changes) and he's probablly under direction to make moves according to that info. Will he be given some leeway? probably to a point yeah, but who really knows how far that goes?

    Get good.

    Yeah I don't think Rogers will suddenly suspend the spending if all it adds is a few million more to this season's overage. There's ~60 million coming off the books after 2023 in Ryu, Kiermaier, Belt, Cimber, Bass, Merrifield and Chapman. Obviously a chunk of that will go to arb increases, but will still be a good amount left over to spend to add and fill the gaps

    I've made exactly 2 correct picks this season. A monkey throwing darts would probably have more correct picks so far. I just got lucky with the bench pick on a double point Saturday.

    This trade dealine should be interesting. The Jays have this season, plus 2 more with Bo and Vlad, only this season with Chappy, (assuming no extensions at this point). This should be "all in" time for getting the best reliever(s) available, DFA whoever ya gotta, and trade the s*** out of the minor leaguers with the possible exception of Tiedemann to land anyone else you think needs to be landed. If they go this year and the next 2 without getting to a WS whilst having Bo and Vlad in their primes, along with these starters, they failed bigtime

    As expected, garbage time from the ump
  8. John_Havok

    That’s an understatement, Meier was murdered. Hit straight to the head too, Trouba gonna get nailed for it

    f*** you ump, f*** you very much
  11. John_Havok
    This umps scorecard is going to be dogshit tomorrow. Probably a full 2 runs in Bostons favour right now
  12. John_Havok
    This ump has to have money on the Sox. It’s clear as f***ing day he’s callng one zone for them and one for the jays
  13. John_Havok
    Again FfS f*** this ump is his flicking blind eye sockets
  14. John_Havok
    And the first pitch high strike gets called against the Jays… This ump can suck a f***ing football team of cocks
  15. John_Havok
    Again the high strike not called for Pearson. Good thing he got out of it
  16. John_Havok
    Felt like that was a catchable ball
  17. John_Havok
    Vlad bailed out by s*** D…lol
  18. John_Havok
    Need Vladdy here. You want a big time extension? Do something in this spot
  19. John_Havok
    You can say that aga…..wait
  20. John_Havok
    These are the kinds of games that f*** with the Jays, inconsistent strike zones that take away from the Jays skill set and doesn’t hurt Boston’s
  21. John_Havok
    Weird how Pearson doesn’t get the high strike…
  22. John_Havok
    Weird how Pearson doesn’t get that inside corner
  23. John_Havok
    Jays can’t beat the ump, this is a complete joke
  24. John_Havok
    Yup. Pitch #4 was called strike 3. What a f***ing joke
  25. John_Havok
    McGuire always f***s the Jays, doesn’t matter who is pitching
