  1. I bet $5 that Ketel Marte wins MVP at 29 to 1, $2 on Marcus Semien at 51 to 1 and $3 on Riley Greene at 81 to 1 haha.
  2. River Ryan is such an awesome name.
  3. Also, I know it might not mean much, but amongst other players he seems very well liked. Even look at Vladdy yesterday at the HR Derby, gave him a Blue Jays jersey and was coaching him during the HR Derby. You can tell Teo definitely had a positive impact on Vladdy when he was in Toronto. Even for that reason, would consider bringing Teo back especially if they sign Vladdy long term.
  4. Man you're way too much.
  5. Never was a fan of the Teo/Swanson trade. You shouldn't have to trade an everyday player who was a middle-of-the-order bat for a reliever. Gotta hope Macko contributes soon and is the difference maker in the trade, since Swanson looks toast now.
  6. Won $140 with my Teo bet haha! What a show! Really happy for Teo! Such a likeable player!
  7. He put up 5.6, 7.9, 6.4, 7.4 WAR seasons in his first four MLB seasons lol. If he stayed healthy and continued to produce, we're likely talking about a HOF career. Grady Sizemore was lightyears better than LGJ haha.
  8. I bet Ozuna and as an underdog went with Teo.
  9. Man, if Grady Sizemore could have stayed healthy, likely looking at a HOF career. Would have been cool to see the type of numbers he would have put up in his career.
  10. I still can't believe there are some people on this board defending Atkins and this FO regarding the KK signing. At the time, signing KK as a "starter" did not make sense at all when the Jays already had Varsho who could play CF and since they needed to upgrade the lineup which was quite evident from the 2023 season. KK was an aging outfielder who was 34 and has been injury prone before. To expect him to repeat his 2023 season was ridiculous. I've stated numerous times the perfect role for KK would have been coming back as a 4th outfielder due to his defensive abilities, and someone who manages to work his way into 250-300 AB. This still would have required the Jays going out to add another bat for a corner OF spot, which they failed to do. If money was going to be an issue and if signing KK prevented them from signing another outfielder with pop, then they should have passed on KK because that $10M could have been better spent elsewhere.
  11. He loves to pin point when things go wrong with other top organizations like the Dodgers and Braves in order to justify his defense of Atkins and the Jays FO.
  12. Don't understand the Blue Jays thinking here. If he was willing to sign here for around $12.5M on a one-year deal (or maybe a bit more), how do you not further pursue that? He would have been a nice fit at DH.
  13. Very disappointing if you ask me. Shows you that Atkins and this FO really botched last offseason when there were clearly lineup upgrades available. Not saying Pederson would have put this team over the top, but heck he would have been a better bat than Turner and the Jays needed a left-handed bat with pop from DH or a corner OF spot.
  14. Yeah I even read that since the Brewers made the Postseason, Cleveland was allowed to pick the PTBNL, which was Michael Brantley. Crazy story also how the Brewers could have had Mike Trout with the No. 25 overall pick: https://www.nbcsports.com/mlb/news/free-agent-compensation-rule-cost-brewers-shot-at-mike-trout
  15. What do posters think about the CC Sabathia trade in 2008? Shapiro was running things in Cleveland and orchestrated the deal. Only Michael Brantley amounted to anything and he was the last piece in the deal (PTBNL I believe). The Cliff Lee deal in 2009 as well. Carlos Carrasco turned out some real good seasons with them. The rest in that package were garbage.

    I don't have Raptors 905 tickets haha. But yeah I'm okay with adding a premium game in a package.
  17. Man, just admit the extension was a bad one. Stop defending Atkins and this front office with every single move they do.
  18. Wonder what the Tigers odds were going into the bottom of the 9th lol.
  19. Will definitely be fun! Great for baseball!

    If anyone wants some preseason games for Buffalo or Cleveland this August, shoot me a DM.

    If anyone wants to purchase a package of 5 or 10 Raptors games for this upcoming season, shoot me a DM.
  22. Yeah hopefully not. Still, they can't afford to punt the offseason and keep the status quo. Need to get creative and make some big moves. Whether it's Atkins or another GM.
