  1. Agree from a pure value standpoint, but I would be willing to bet a decent chunk of money if Cashman got offered Trout for Judge... he would be on the next plane to New York before the phone hung up. Then he would extend him and sign Harper.... and the Yankees would win the universe. Viagra and Cialis wouldn't be needed in New York for anyone in the next 10 years, because every male Yankees fan would have a permanent erection. Let's also remember Trout was having a better season than Judge is currently having before his injury, and plays CF.
  2. I can promise you that's not the case. There's not a player in baseball right now that wouldn't be traded for Trout 1 for 1. You know Trout is only 1 year older than Judge? I'm sure from a pure value vs contract perpective there are a few guys that could be argued give more suplus value... but I'd be really interested to see what the Dodgers would say if the Angels called up and asked for Bellinger. Or maybe Boston might turn down Sale for Trout given their situation... but in a vacuum,.. Trout doesn't go 1 for 1 for anyone else in the game right now.
  3. Warmoth debuted for the GCL Jays today. 2 for 3 with a SB, then lifted. Future reliever Taylor Cole also finally started his rehab assignment there today
  4. Yeah, I guess it depends. Tepera gives up a lot of hard contact, whereas Barnes doesn't. Barnes walks fewer, strikes out more (not massive differences between the 2 guys, but it's there. Barnes gives up more fly balls, but the quality of contact is worse overall leading to a lower babip. Tepera gives up rockets, but so far... very low hr per fb and a low babip. Might need more time to see if they separate from each other
  5. Naw, they'll just wait a year and sign Machado when all it costs is cash and 1 pick
  6. Think Gibby is starting to clue in that Barnes is a better reliever than Tepera yet?
  7. Nah, that was the game I was at laat Thursday with Happ on the mound. Was a close game. It was Boston that throttled them 15-1
  8. Flip the script. If the Jays were in Washingtons position and needed a closer to help cement a playoff run. Would you want to trade Vlad Guerrero or Bo (assuming both are 19 and 20 and in High A and both are ranked top 10-15 in baseball consensus) ... for .. say...Chris Devenski? .... Corey Knebel?
  9. f*** Jeter with a 40 ounce bat... Judge and Syndergaard get my votes
  10. True but Chapman isn't just elite, Miller isn't just elite, they're basically the best of the best of the best and have been for years. Jansen and Betances probably round out the top tier of relievers over the past 3 seasons that Osuna has been around. The Chapman and Miller trades both netted a top 30ish prospect and some throw ins. I don't think Washington would then find it agreeable to trade a top 10 prospect who they're probably counting in to fill part of Harpers shoes if he leaves, for more of a package that arguably the best 2 relievers in the game went for.... even if he's under control for three more seasons after this one. His arbitration deals will actually cost them money because he's got dem savez! Chapman was a rental they resigned,, but Miller was under control.
  11. I'm in such a rut right now. I can't pick pitchers or offense this year at all.
  12. Washington would be stupid to trade Robles for Osuna
  13. He does in reality, but teams don't pay big in trade for defense only players, regardless of how many wins they actually add with it. A 4 WAR all bat no d player would net far more in trade than a 4 WAR defender with no bat. Rightly or wrongly, that's the mlb we live in
  14. Not quite sure I would put him in elite prospect status without even average command.
  15. Just spitballing, but have you tried just... not being a f***ing moron (yours and Spankys words... not mine) instead of responding in kind? And just in case your reading comprehension sucks, the above sentence does not mean I am calling you a f***ing moron.
  16. Felix Lester Martin Votto Altuve Donaldson Tulo Pearce Springer Stanton
  17. I guess, but in reality the only way the jays trade prospects now is if they get legit stars under team control back. Since that's incredibly unlikely, they really aren't available
  18. Pearce, Tulo, Martin and Donaldson all hit HRs today.... I hope
  19. I stacked Jays hitters so I'm guaranteed last.
  20. Yeah. Maybe Caboclo will get more than garbage time. Isn't he at the end of his 2 years away from being 2 years away?
  21. He's older, but he did military duty which ate into his development, very interesting story to his career path. http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/chris-rowley-takes-most-unlikely-path-to-blue-jays-camp/ http://www.sportsnet.ca/magazine/a-new-target/
  22. Washington just blew another lead in the 9th. What a mess of a pen
  23. Gurriel hit his 1st HR today.
  24. Morales is a mess right now. Can't hit a f***ing thing
