Santos

Good news

The reports on Lazarito are pretty impressive but the argument of whether to go all in on one international prospect or a bunch of smaller ones is fair. Since the Jays are already sitting out next year the real question is one big fish better than a bunch of smaller ones in 2017? Considering it's fair to assume that the Jays could be netting some comp picks down the road I'd prefer to see them go all in....what's the price tag on Lazarito anyways? Haven't read lot on his projected contract

This was my understanding so thanks for clarifying. Sucks to sit out two years in a row but if Lazarito is as good as he's made out to be he could be worth it. Also if Jays lose Bautista and EE to free agency that would give the Jays three first round picks in 2017. I've read Ben Badler labeling Vlad JR and Lazarito as high first round selections if draft eligible so if signed in a hypothetical world that could give the Jays 7 first round talents from 2015-2017. Could be a quick way to rebuild the farm without stripping down the roster (minus losing Edwin and Jose of course )

No one other than the Braves are identified as being in on him although USA TODAY says 9 teams are pursuing him. Could someone more well versed in the international signing area breakdown where the Jays stand pool money wise? Would making a play on Lazarito be a shrewd move for a new management team looking to rebuild the farm?

To be clear, it's a presale to buy an additional pair to the home opener. They have done this before...

I'd join. I'm experienced in dynasty leagues and fantrax although I wouldn't recommend their app. I think a few guys in here could vouch for me. Give me a trash team or a good team. I'm good either way

Its the season pass....not exactly season seat holders lol. I remember there definitely was a rule enforced in the past just unsure if it is still the case.

Gentlemen, Sending my pops to the game tomorrow with my season pass. I know in the past there has been a rule about getting there early or else your pass' tickets become void for the game if its a sell out. Does anyone know what the rule is? I've tried contacting the box office to ask but as you can guess i havent had any luck getting through. Thanks in advance!

@bluejayhotstove I remember in 2007 29yr old Akinori Iwamura signed with the Rays and was a complete unknown. Went on to be worth 5.5 WAR his 2 seasons there If I recall correctly Aoki when he signed with the Brewers had very little fanfare and he turned out to be a solid big leaguer as well. The idea of singing this guy is definitely growing on me. He HAS to be better than Izturis and Goins and he probably can't be worse than Asdrubal Cabrera or Jed Lowrie was last year either.

I like that you referenced @bluejayhotstove....he doesnt have any sources of course but the guy sparks up some good dialogue on twitter i find....3 nights ago i think he mentioned Navarro to Arizona for reliever makes too much sense and 48 hours later it was all over the news. Im not against this Taritori signing or whatever his name is...people talk about Lowrie and Asdrubal like they are superstars....Lowrie was so so last year and Asdrubal hasnt had a good year since 2012. He was awful last year. I cant imagine this japanese guy being any worse

Not sure about online, but the stadium Jays Shop already has both. Bought a Stroman today And I got a good one for you...Brandon League Baby Blue Friday Night retro jersey Not only the dumbest jersey purchase I've ever made but perhaps the stupidest decision I've ever made in my life.....

If the Greek wasnt smart enough to upgrade his rotation then i highly doubt he does something like this although it really would be a total waste not to capitalize on the advantage he has on the market with the two protected first rounders...f***ing idiot

Got the feeling Stroman could be a top rookie with the Jays this season and Hutch could very well out pitch Mark Buerhle...the depth is 100% there. Obviously having that stud at the top of the rotation and bumping everyone down a spot would be ideal...Ubaldo was not that guy though

I really dislike that greek f*** right now And on the point earlier where someone said its all Beeston...i disagree I get the sense its all AA..guy is obsessed with this perception of value f***ing hate him

yeah i dunno
