    McCoy was my first thought too, but yeah wasn't there the year this was taken, it was 2008.

    My guess is Joe Inglett, as the caption from the pic where i found it says its Marco Scutaro... but that doesnt look anything like Scutaro.

    6 interesting names there for my money. Hernandez, Fernandez, Francis, Juenger, Robberse and Tiedemann

    "Trip from a-ball to the majors is often done in 2 years no matter what the players age" - this really doesn't happen all that often overall for MILB players. There's hundreds and thousands that never even sniff the majors. Though I think maybe youre meaning, of the players who eventually make the majors, they often make the jump from Aball to the majors in 2 years. That would be more accurate.

    Makes Dalton born 9 months and 1 day after his dad's last game.

    Yeah that old park was murderous on hitters. Left field was 340, at least RF had a break at 325

    Yeah the pic i posted was a series a few months after the whole "HA" thing from A-Rod. Arod got thrown behind by Litsch in the first game of the series, then hit by Towers in this game (hence the pic), Matt Stairs tried to get after ARod but was held back by someone... then Clemens hit Rios square in the back later on. I think the benches cleared like 4 times that day. Was the same game wehn Joba Chamberlain made his MLB debut.

    The thing is, the Jays played it completely wrong in their haste which was the only reason they had a chance at the triple play. Pendleton, who started at 1b on that play with Sanders at 2b, went all the way around second and PAST Sanders who was actually holding up to see if White would catch it or not, so Pendleton was already out. The cutoff man (alomar) had no reason to throw back to 1b to get Pendleton, but because they did.... Sanders, who was tagging at 2b, tried to advance to third so Olerud then threw it over to Gruber who ran down Sanders and the ump botched the call. Had Alomar just gloved the throw from White and walked it in without throwing to first needlessly, there would not have even been a chance at the triple play.

    jays that can play CF - Varsho, Springer, KK, Merrifield and Lopez Jays that can play the corner OF - all of the CF, plus Biggio 3b -Chapman, Espinal and to far lesser extent if there’s an emergency Biggio. SS- Bo, Espinal, Lopez 2b - Merrifield, Espinal, Biggio, Lopez 1b- Vlad, belt, Biggio C - Jansen, Kirk, Varsho Every position has at least 3 guys that can play it

    I don’t think they all need to be exact, but there shouldn’t be a massive difference in the distance from home plate to any wall of the outfield. The fact that some parks you can hit a HR that’s like 30-40 feet shorter than the same spot in another park makes little sense. Not mandating an exact footage is fine but at least legislate a minimal range of distances to the corners, power alleys and dead centre. It’s not impossible to add character to a ballpark without massively screwing with wall distance and height
  20. John_Havok
    Not that you can really have too many, but with Biggio, Merrifield, Varsho, Espinal and probably Lopez…I think they’ve got the utility positions covered nicely.

    What? His defense in OAA has been 100th percentile, 76th, 80th and 90th from 2019-2022. Cumulatively over that time, he's 4th in runs prevented for all outfielders behind Bader, KK and Grisham. That's not what I'd call "sucks"
  22. John_Havok
    I think Alford would have been fine if he gave up on football earlier. Guy only had like 100 PAs over his first 3 minor league seasons total. He still hit half decent in the KBO last year.
  23. John_Havok
    With his GB rate, the walls would have to be 10 feet away from the plate to really matter for him.
  24. John_Havok
    Im cheering for the kid based on this picture alone. If his agent can't get him a Crest or Colgate endorsement, he should be fired.

    Pearson being a shut down reliever would just be gravy at this point, f***er just cant catch a break with his health. And, realistically, where on the field do the Jays even need a prospect to come up and fill a gap? The entire position player roster is fine, SP is 4 deep for multiple years. Only FAs after this season are Belt, KK, Ryu, Cimber, Chapman and Bass. Chapman easily the biggest loss there and even if Barger doesn't take the step forward, just sign Machado
