  1. Orange birds in a bit of a funk, they just took 2 of 3 from Colorado, but 2 series losses out of the AS break losing 2 of 3 to the Rays and then 3 of 4 against Cleveland. Not exactly rolling
  2. Mlb.com power rankings now have the Jays at #2 overall, behind the Cubs #1 Detroit dropped all the way to 8
  3. And if his range isnt great at SS, he'll have the same range issues at 2b. We see what he'll most likely look like at 30ish and onward with Clement. Theyre both the same types of hitters, though Bo has more power, and Clement has better D and speed.
  4. You do. The raises that Manoah amd Bo turned down were pre-arb, and just generally done to try to reward guys a bit for having a great year. Each raise would have even helped them when arb finally started since arb numbers are bases on your pre-arb salary. I understand the need to protest the crappy arb system though and I think in general it still needs re-working so the people playing the most games and giving the most production are the ones getting paid commesurately. Free agency is great for superstars, but the average players get boned
  5. Yup. It's gotta be DFA times soon as they land a reliever via trade
  6. ffs. He has the brain of a dead ferret. Please stop quoting him
  7. Yeah. Ignore list brother. Anyone so dumb to suggest Varsho be traded for middle relief is so far past stupid its not worth the effort
  8. 108 on the screws with a .760 hit chance. Tough luck Springer
  9. Just meant the last inning. Also wasn't a judgement on the results, just saying he looks tired.
  10. Body language-wise...Scherzer looks tired. Could be weather, could be all the time on the shelf and not getting a full ramp up, could be age. Maybe some combo of all of the above but he definitely looks a bit gassed
  11. Sure. My thoughts are definitely based on my own interpretations of what he has said publicly in the past. I think these second generation star players just have much more insight into how the business side works, and, an assumption on my part that the father's imparted many examples of players being drastically underpaid, including themselves in some cases... which leads the sons to definitively want to test free agency and squeeze every dollar they can based on how they value themselves. Some projection here on my part for sure, but thats how I see it.
  12. Bichette has only ever indicated he wants max money, team friendly extensions don't give him that. He was the guy that turned down a pre-arbitration raise because it wasn't high enough. Nothing about Nimmala is any factor on whether Bichette signs or doesnt sign a new deal with the Jays
  13. Bubic just went to the IL with shoulder problem, rotator cuff strain
  14. Kirk is on the 7 day concussion IL Damn
  15. If we look at genetics there is some hope too... Vlad sr never really slowed down with the bat until he was 34...and was still above average. He only had one year with an OPS+ under 100 and it was 98 in his age 36 season. If Jr follows the same track...his contract is only bad for maybe 4-5 years?
  16. And still lead the division by 8 games (7 if Cleveland wins game 2 of their doubleheader)...shows how weak the central is yet again.
  17. K, now Hoffman can sit down i think. Let Green come in and give up 2 or 3
  18. Hard to say to use Hoffman or not...he was already up and warming, hasn't pitched in 4 days... its not a bad call to have him pitch Well...that was before Springer made it 5 runs lol
  19. Little and Hoffman and its another series win.
  20. All it took was getting one of the best pitchers in MLB out of the game. Only a matter of time
  21. I can't stand watching Jimenez hit. His approach is non-existant
