    any chance we still pick up another outfielder in a swap for Jansen? Anyone??
  2. The_DH
    keep in mind, if we do trade Jansen then we may need to pick up another bat for designated hitting-of or something like that. I'd think Brantley or Conforto would be good choices.

    Let's remember, we're not the GM and the GM is not asking for our opinion so the trade will be what the trade will be (if any). Best to just look at the various possibilities and not get personal. And for the record, I want a great centre fielder and an awesome pitcher or two.... and a world series appearance too.
  4. The_DH
    Not yet.
  5. The_DH
    I'm starting to think this way: Nimmo plays CF this year and eventually moves to LF, Springer in RF and then some up and comer in CF. Could be a long term plan.
  6. The_DH
    let me guess: you're so impressed with the winter meeting results that you're still shaking your head (like I am).
  7. The_DH
    Funny how this just released right after a complete washout Winter Meetings. That being said, I hope it's for real.
  8. The_DH
    From everything that I've read, this sounds pretty accurate... I don't think we're doing much. Go big or go home. So we go home.
  9. The_DH
    It makes sense for him but I'm sure part of his negotiations will be on where he appears in the batting order (or who's in front and who's behind him). The contracts are all one year and money can't be the issue. The ability to bounce back is the only real value.
  10. The_DH
    Just a thought: but is it possible that a CF for a bad team can have his defensive statistics be more in flux due to the inconsistent play in front of him? In other words if a CF has a pitching staff that can execute as planned then his jumps and such would be better? And if so, could this be the case here?
  11. The_DH
    Off-season is the time for 3 way trades.
  12. The_DH
    Yep, I'd do that any day.
  13. The_DH
    to dump Metz maybe? Bad lefty contract for a bad lefty contract.
  14. The_DH
    maybe throw Kikuchi in with Jansen and Cimber for Metz and Nootbaar. then sign one of Heaney or Stripling and a lefty bat to play lf-dh. Balances the lineup and rotation.
  15. The_DH
    I got the feeling the likelihood of Nootbaar's future was not necessarily as good as Janssen's. Either way, I'd still do the trade.
  16. The_DH
    I think I might as well. Not as sure about giving up Cimber as well, kind of expected we'd receive something with Nootbaar.
  17. The_DH
    I remember him as a Yankee 1b and thinking how great he'd be in Toronto. There was rumour of a trade but I doubt it was serious.
  18. The_DH
    I'm not too big on retiring numbers (as long as a team has a reason for doing it), but when the Jays gave #1 to Shun Yamaguchi I thought it was nothing but disrespect.
  19. The_DH
    It would be rather funny if you wrote in a 5 next to the 1 and then posted that as a picture. Memorable at least.
  20. The_DH
    He wore #1
  21. The_DH
    Even just the thought or rumour of Bellinger > reality of Zimmer. But yeah.
  22. The_DH
    But is it maybe best to go one year (or two years max) with Bellinger and then get a real candidate? Maybe there's someone better coming along next year??
  23. The_DH
    I'm even happy with the average of 2019 and recent years.
  24. The_DH
    Having Bellinger feels like Colby Rasmus v2.0. Not a bad get and the overall defence improves. If 2 years is the deal, it's not that bad.
  25. The_DH
    Agent Scott Boras tells Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic that he’s already received multi-year offers for Bellinger — presumably from teams hoping for the chance to secure a player with star potential at what would be a bargain annual value if they’re successfully able to rehabilitate him. However, pointing to Bellinger’s age (27), Boras suggested that he and Bellinger “most likely… don’t want a multi-year [contract].” MLB.com’s Jon Morosi tweets that the Blue Jays are among the teams to have expressed early interest in Bellinger, adding that they held some trade discussions surrounding Bellinger prior to his non-tender. There’s good sense to pursuing only contracts that would allow Bellinger to return to the market a year from now. He won’t turn 28 years old until around the 2023 All-Star break, making him the youngest free agent of note this offseason.
