One day

If Kirk was at spring training opening day would have gone better i think. So much weird, out of sync stuff to go with the pitch clock. Is what it is

Manoah and Kirk are not on the same page yet. Probably why Manoah has been calling some pitches himself....which isnt smart with the pitch clock

If competing Woodruff the way to go. If in the middle or rebuilding. The 3 spects or Harrison/Stone seems pretty enticing Might be a little light either way though

Same with Manoah so far. I think they are holding back with the pitch clock. Kind of getting use to the timing before letting it go when the season starts

Jays offered Manoah a contract extension in the offseason...wasn't close

This list lmao Meanwhile

1. Jays win the World Series 2. 3 Jays finish top 10 in MVP 3. 2 Jays finish top 10 in Cy Young 4. Pearson has 15+ holds/saves 5. Espinal and Zulueta get traded

2024 prediction Orelvis starting 3B Barger starting 2B/LF

Orelvis broke the statcast lol

Orelvis!!!!!

He probably could. I dont see them doing much outside of 1B/3B until he gets to AAA

More of why I like Rainer so much lol

Rainer!!! 114 MPH walkoff off the wall

Rainer 107.4 MPH lineout Palmegiani 102.1 MPH flyout

Probably will take him out of the WBC

From stats and watching So 5 sites I just looked at have Barger 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 6. So avg just better than 4th. I'm actually a little lower than that. His swing to me is more of a Bo Bichette violent swing and Biggio's overly high launch angle and upper cut. Should be a great low ball hitter, but seems he could be bad in the upper part of the zone. That hole and possible platoon risk have me down at 4 for him. I think he becomes more of a full utility type of bat, but 2B could be his down the line. More of a needing to show more confirmation of the changes he made and that he can do it vs good pitchig consistently. I really didnt like his AZ Fall league numbers, but SSS. The big shift is whether he keeps his K% under 30% or goes back up over 30% With Palmegiani, this is part of what I have in his writeup Damiano was an above average player at A Ball (141 wRC+) and A+ (116 wRC+) as a 22 year old. Damanio paired good exit velocities (87.4 avg and 109.2 max) at Dunedin with great launch angles (18 degrees) to help produce his home runs. The drop off between A and A+ production was fueled by an abnormally low BABIP (0.239) given the rest of his metrics remained relatively the same including his BB%, K%, LD%, GB%, FB%, and hits to pull, center, and oppo Pretty much everything was the same between A and A+ except the BABIP, which I think is more of a clear bad luck type scenario Just naturally if Palmegiani continues with the 10+ BB% and 20 K%, the ability to hit the ball hard and often should see his AVG come up I think the biggest difference I had from most was Rainer Nunez. Most have him unranked or sub 25th

Yes and no. I think he is Pearson at this point. Back end reliever most likely Actually age/level is a big factor. I think Rainer and Palmegiani are extremely undervalued compared to what they have done and what they can do. Toman has big potential and can move quickly up. Along with Santos, Macko, Doughty, Brown, and De Jesus I think. I think right now all have a lot of questions. Biggest thing I see with Toman is the difference between his LH swing and his RH swing. The RH one needs a lot of work I think. Love that he is a switch hitter though In fantasy I think its a fine line between age/level, actual numbers, underlying numbers, statcast, projection
