    Kirk named as an All-Star reserve but Springer got snubbed in favor of Kwan, Buxton, Julio Rodrigues and Brent Rooker
  2. John_Havok
    Literally nobody?
  3. John_Havok
    To answer that last question, they cant go after an ace without including one of Nimmala or Yesavage for sure. The depth guys could land a rental, but there would be more than 1 of them involved most likely. Look at the trades last year the Jays pulled off. Even other guys you mentioned like Kasevich, Stanifer etc could get used in those trades.

    Burr's slider looking filthy...damn

    Naw its fine to be discussed here. Basically, the 40 man roster is in a pretty good place right now. As far as pitching goes, there's nobody there that's a clear "he's useless, who cares" which is good. Guys who are still being developed as SPs, Macko (just back from TJ surgery), Manoah (still out but nearing a return from surgery), Bloss (just had TJ surgery, not back till mid next year) Lazardo, Pina, Bastardo (had TJ last June but he was a rule 5 pickup they knew was gonna hurt all year), and Bowden Francis (on the IL with shoulder inpingement). No real rush on clearing 40 man roster spots this season until Manoah is back. Position player side... lots of decent depth options already on the roster, some of whom will probably be dealt away at the deadline. Think Wagner, Roden, Loperfido, Schneider, Jimenez, Clase, Lukes. All these guys have skillsets that allow them to play in the bigs in specifically designed roles, but likely aren't full time players long term. As for who would rule 5 eligible...just look at the 2021 high school drafted and 2022 college drafted to see if any names jump out as needing protection.

    Im pretty sure Bo hates happiness
  7. John_Havok
    Hes not really all that crafty, the split is just really good and he has that hitch in his delivery to mess up timing even more. It works though
  8. John_Havok
    I like this matchup for Davis Schneider.
  9. John_Havok
    Wow, Jays have the most hitters on the same team with an OPS+ of 100 or more at 10. Did not see that coming.
  10. John_Havok
    Anderson is a guy you just have to sit soft and adjust to the fastball, he only throws 89-91 heat.
  11. John_Havok
    Trout still gonna Trout every now and then
  12. John_Havok
    Quite honestly the broom thing is kind of cringe, but Jamie has done it forever, it's his thing.
  13. John_Havok
    "I'm not a fawning fanboy....." - Michael Kay HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, he's probably the biggest fanboy broadcaster there is. Also, nobody is hanging on the rim in the 3rd quarter, not a single comment Jamie made was about looking ahead and assuming they'd remain in first place and win the division. Strawman arguments at their finest!
  14. John_Havok
    Yup, all those guys they landed at last years deadline are in play for sure, even if it's just as a throw in.
  15. John_Havok
    Pretty much yeah. I don't really think there was really anyone on the 40 man that's a clear cut DFA, which is kinda cool. That hasn't been the case for a long time.
  16. John_Havok
    I think the problem was they needed to DFA someone and Robertson was the odd man out. Looking through the roster it's hard to find another position player you'd feel good about totally dumping, and there's no arms you'd want to cut completely. Silver lining might be Robertson getting claimed, and getting a RH version of him back in trade, maybe an arm, or they get lucky and can outright him back to Buffalo.
  17. John_Havok
    Yeah, it's just a weird thing to do in general to replace a major league lefty with a minor league lefty against a lefty. My guess is that its something minor nagging at him, they've won the series already and just want to give him a day, but he's probably still available to come in later as you said.
  18. John_Havok
    I would generally agree with this... except they have Loperfido in RF, who is also LH and terrible at hitting LHP.
  19. John_Havok
    Damn, Robertson has a legit chance of being claimed by someone, but there really aren't a lot of true DFA worthy players on the roster right now.
  20. John_Havok
    incredible take.
  21. John_Havok
    He was the guy who was complaining about the landing spot on the mound wasn't he and the grounds crew had to come out to fill a hole?
  22. John_Havok
    Barger with the gun from RF to shut down the rally in the 1st, then finishes it off in the 11th with a rocket single. Kid's pretty good eh?
  23. John_Havok
    Schanuel got a glove on that too, just couldn't hang on to the bullet.
  24. John_Havok
    Barger saves the day!!!!
  25. John_Havok
    holy hell Bo wtf were you swinging at
