  1. That's a piss poor approach by Solarte. Guy with 0 command so far tonight and you swing at the first one that isnt even good.
  2. Short night for the White Sox manager and pitching coach. Both tossed without recordng an out.
  3. Back to back to lead off the game doesn't suck.
  4. Bo just led off the game with his 9th HR
  5. It's probably too late for a guy to "iron out" his control by the time he has reached AAA and subsequently the majors. The command he has now may slightly improve.... but it's unlikely to take a major step forward.
  6. Yup. Too many shoulder problems has basically killed him
  7. You can bet it wasn't much. The market for rentals just isn't what it used to be. I think people's frustrations with the return on this trade stems from 2 things.... 1. The fact that Happ was the Jays best trade chip, which speaks volumes about how the season is going. 2. Unrealistic expectations. Advanced metrics have pretty much kiboshed the rental return market recently. Even the return the Orioles got for Machado would be considered garbage not too long ago.
  8. That's not entirely true. A guy hitting 9th with GG defense in CF can play on a contender. Though as I consider what you posted, i think you mean going forward that he won't be GG calibre D in CF. That's reasonable
  9. The word "potential" should have preceded years of control. But it makes sense.
  10. Even if Drury and McKinney end up being backups that provide .5 WAR each for 2 seasons and then fade away.... that's better than having Happ for 2.5 months in a non playoff year.
  11. 9 years of control over position players that aren't trash is a pretty decent return on a pending UFA that isn't helping your team get to the playoffs. Neither are likely to be stars, but if you squint you can see a few WAR combined over the next few seasons.
  12. 10:18PM: “The industry belief” is that the Yankees and Brewers are the front-runners for Happ, Sherman writes. The Cubs still “might be in play,” though Chicago also asked the Jays about Marcus Stroman. In another tweet, Sherman mentions that the Blue Jays like Yankees infielder Brandon Drury. 9:33PM: The Yankees still look like the favorite for Happ right now, with Feinsand calling them “the leader” of the teams in pursuit, and SNYTV’s Andy Martino saying the Bombers are “in strong position.” A trade may not be imminent, as Joel Sherman of the New York Post hears that a deal is “unlikely” to take place tonight. (All links to Twitter.) Both Feinsand and Martino list the Cubs and Brewers still being involved, with Martino adding the Rockies as a new team to the Happ rumor mill. Feinsand feels the number of teams in on Happ will result in a nice trade return for the Blue Jays.
  13. Time for Morales to pitch. f*** this
  14. Wtf is this. 3 straight ******** hits lol
  15. No chance on either one.
  16. The Jays need to stop picking up pitchers with 2 seamers. Just f***ing ditch that pitch. .. please! Pitching to contact is just stupid
  17. I don't think theyre heated about the HBP, but the close pitches that kept being called balls, which they were
  18. I think if there were any other Jays pieces involved, we'd have heard by now.
  19. f*** Maile, settle down
  20. Need grichuk to steal here I think
  21. They had 5 infielder's, I doubt they would let 2nd go uncontested when they had multiple guys close to 2nd. It's possible I suppose but that's a reach
  22. Why would you use a pinch runner for a guy whose run doesn't matter?
  23. I dunno man. Freezing on a line drive is little league stuff. Especially with 5 IF out there. Anything on the ground, you know your dead anyway and your run doesn't mean anything with a the guy at 3rd. It's a huge mistake
  24. Really? Wtf is law smoking
