  1. We take Adrian Rondon can someone PM next I'm walking into an appt right now. Thanks!
  2. I'm ready whenever a decision is made or if JG shows up
  3. We'll take Brandon Woodruff
  4. Sorry lads, I was away all weekend, I just saw the email. I'll pick in a minute
  5. I am finding it difficult to believe he is being serious...You see a guy well over aged for the league, who is in his 3rd year and you think "orgs like to hide their guys". Funny at first, this is becoming ridiculous
  6. We will take Bryan Reynolds
  7. Jed Gyorko hit 3 HR on my bench today...once in a lifetime
  8. Vladdy jr has been really playing well lately! Since July 2nd (basically excluding his first week) he's hitting .313 .408 .516 151 wRC+ 14% bb 8% K
  9. There isn't really any top end talent available, going to be a lot of picks that people aren't on the same page I think
  10. We will take Yohander Mendez. Greenwood otc, i'll send him a PM
  11. I didn't get a PM, I'll make a pick soon
  12. BP had two Blue Jays in their Notes from the Field section today. Carlos Ramirez, RHP, Toronto Blue Jays (High-A Dunedin) An outfielder turned pitcher, Ramirez has a big arm and has taken well to the mound thus far. With a 6-foot-5, 205-pound body, Ramirez pitches from the stretch with a compact arm action, fair arm speed, and a three-quarters slot. His fastball comes in at 93-95 with some sink. His slider was his go-to secondary with good depth and moderate tilt at 85-87. He is still raw but has an intriguing arm and hasn't pitched for that long. Angel Perdomo, LHP, Toronto Blue Jays (Low-A Lansing) Perdomo's physique is immediately striking. At 6-foot-6 with long levers, gradual gait, a high waist, and large hands, Perdomo resembles a small forward more than a starting pitcher. The arm action—from a high-three-quarters slot—is long, with mild crossfire and balance concerns, but the lefty manages to corral his impossibly large frame. That ability takes some athleticism, and so does the ability to make a heavy 90-93 fastball seam easy. Perdomo can cut the pitch, as there's some natural life, but its heaviness stands out. His velocity, however, did not hold up into the start, tailing down to a still solid and effective 89-91 in the fifth inning. Perdomo's main secondary in this viewing was his slider, which has varying shapes and velocity. The slider was at its most effective in the low 80s, as he has the ability to spin it with more tilt at this level. At 86 mph, the pitch retained its horizontal movement, though with less tilt, acting more like a cutter with above average horizontal movement. Perdomo complements the FB/SL combo with a changeup, which was firm at 85mph. He seldom used the change in this outing. I think there is some projection with the pitch given the hand/finger size, but the pitch was a non-factor versus South Bend. The FB/SL was good enough for Perdomo in this outing. While the two-pitch combo—combined with balance issues Perdomo will continue to face given his extreme length—does not bode well for his profile as a starter, he did display some starter characteristics: impressive composure in jams, calmly pointing to the sky after each half inning (a routine), and a generally relaxed demeanor on the mound. He was by no means passive, often attacking with the fastball. The ceiling is that of a back-end starter, but there might be too many mechanical issues to iron out, and lack of a third pitch for Perdomo to fully realize that role. Out of the bullpen, I'd expect the FB to gain velo given the ease with which he currently operates. Should he develop as a pen arm, I'd put a 6/6 on the FB/SL combo from the left side. He'll need to further harness the aforementioned better version of the slider and gain consistency with it. Perdomo will be around for a long time, whether in the majors or the minors
  13. Couple of tweets regarding Pentecost... Adam McInturff .@BProToronto Max Pentecost at DH today, but offensive tools evident. Very quiet, balanced swing w/ quick, efficient path. @BProToronto Allows him to see pitches deep and track off-speed without tons of head movement. Ball jumps off bat pullside; 2B and HR today. one on Harris: @BProToronto FB 92-95 t96 today; hard upper-80s splitter to LHH; cutter/slider hybrid to RHH. CB for another look, 12-6 from tall slot 80-3.
  14. oh baby, up from 19th to 16th, watch out dinger!!!!!!!!
  15. JVs contract is so so sweet
  16. Lowry and Demar gonna take up 50% of our cap
  17. Ehhh, im not sure you can villify Masai. Sure I don't like the deal but he's had one pick inside the top 20 and Norman/Powell look like rotation players. I'd say he's been a good drafter to this point. I think he's a top half of the league GM, not sure how you can call Ross way overpaid...Jeremy Lin and Mozgov are both making more. I don't really like Casey but I can understand the reasoning, where are they finding a better coach? he's improved year over year. Cojos option is after 2018.
  18. Demar is back at a reported 5/139....excuse me while i cry
  19. Pentecost obviously very old for level but it's really nice to see him figuring this out. Since June 9th 357/446/589 .475 wOBA and 204 wRC+. Promotion soon plz!
  20. Lets keep it going....Jake Bean
  21. I'll take Julien Gauthier
  22. Hey guys ill make my pick in the next 30, just on the road
  23. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/16513711 "DeRozan will focus on getting deal done w/ Raps, no plans to meet other teams" Seems pretty likely that he's coming back boys. Heres to hoping it's closer to 20 than 30
