  1. Just gotta be equal to the Gaurdians the rest of the season and hope the Os and Rangers keep sliding. I really dont want to have to introduce Houston and the White sox into daily scorebaord viewing.
  2. And 250k in international money. Every cent there counts in a big way to find the next Kirk
  3. Nothing like having a guy who hits 40 bombs like it's nothing in your lineup.
  4. Clearly you don't understand. He made a bad decision in the 4th inning last week. Unforgiveable. He should be out of baseball and slinging eggs and hash in a truck stop diner.
  5. So, pen usage pretty straightforward if its a close game. Sewald/Flu doing the matchup thing to bridge to the Miles/Rogers/Varland 7-8-9. Could also use Mantiply as an inning ending loogy. Even if Scherzer only goes 5, theres enough arms to get through 4 without any of then being pushed
  6. For sure, that's why i'm not concerned about it. And, it also needs context. The route running numbers are all within like 4 feet of inefficiency from top to bottom of the league. Thats less than half a stride.
  7. I dunno about the instincts thing but the route running being his weakness is accurate if you buy savants route running scores where he ranks near the bottom of the league. The thing is, his jump and burst combined are 2nd best in all of baseball so being 2% less efficient on routes doesn't really hurt him
  8. Tampa in Texas is their version of the Jays at the Trop. I dont think theyve won a game in texas since 2022
  9. Both sides would be astronomically stupid to lose games in 2027. They aren't really that far apart. it's virtually a 1 issue negotiation
  10. I think Seattle is too far back, though there's still a chance. Texas still has a legit shot at making up 2 games given the difference in schedules.
  11. Kwan: Bateman: Bateman and the Jays wish he was Kwan level in the batters box.
  12. Exactlyy. Just worry about going 1-0 today before thinking about series
  13. Look at some of Peyton Williams HR swings when you get a chance. They aren't as violent but, almost more like... controlled chaos looking and the ball just gets destroyed. There's a lot of meat behind it He's probably my most irrationally interesting prospect in the org Actually, not that I look at him more, his swing is quite reminiscent of Stairs also
  14. I have all the faith in the world in the pitching. What matters if they can score enough runs which is the same challenge they've faced all year long
  15. TO answer an earlier question about height now .. yes, seeing him stand in front of the ump there, he definitely looks to be 5'7'. But built like a brick sh*thouse. Those legs are THICK
  16. yup, we talked about it a few posts up, but yeah, he absolutely sells out for power and it's legit.... IF he contacts the baseball Another dude that just crushes moonshots is Peyton Williams, the 6'5' 260+ pound Iowa Meat Truck who's up to AAA. Dude hits absolute tanks. But, sadly sucks at virtually every other aspect of the game lol Another guy hitting a ton of HRs in Dunedin of all places, Aldo Gaxiola. 6'2 1B, 20 years old. 17 HRs this season.
  17. So does Cleveland, Texas and Baltimore. All 3 teams have a legit shot at WC3
  18. Yesavage is throwing off the mound now.
  19. If Bateman can be Kwan with the bat, the trade was a massive heist. I don't think he will be Kwan with the bat though, contact tool isnt on that level
  20. Frankly, from most of the pundits who are predicting the playoff series... yes, they predict the Brewers won't go as far as they could because they lack that game changing power. Look at the Jays playoffs last year, power is what put them over the top, they got those 2 and 3 run bombs when they had base runners on. Springer's bomb, Varsho's in the early part of the playoffs, Bo in the WS, Vlad .... all of those were needed to help Ernie's 800 singles turn into runs. Anything can happen in the playoffs, but yes, if you were handicapping the teams in the playoffs, the glaring hole in Milwaukee's lineup is game changing power. Cubs are kinda the opposite. PCA has pop but he can also go completely missing for a week at a time and be useless.
  21. His finish is so off balance. Weird. Pretty high effort delivery too
  22. I also wonder about the love that Fisher gets, he's not a high leverage arm by any means. Neither is Mantiply to be fair...
  23. Why would you risk any injury in blowout to a key player? No-brainer of a move in a blowout to give someone else some time Why would he? Everything i posted was logical and explained with reasoning. Its more the mindless and constant b*tching and moaning that gets called out
  24. Yeah i think i posted this when it was only 6-0, after it got worse, sure get him out.
