    If I ever visit Camden Yards, I'll buy maybe a special cap or t-shirt. When I visit a new ballpark, I always buy a cap or a player t-shirt or something that I can't get here in Toronto as a souvenir. It's something I've done since 2007 since I started visiting other ballparks down in the US. Don't see what the issue is. I bought a Rockies alternate cap when I went to Coors Field in 2018. Doesn't mean I hate the Blue Jays lol. And obviously, Toronto's biggest homer Brownie19 liked your post haha. It's too bad he lives in his Blue Jays bubble.

    Yup the difference will be how the Baltimore FO compliments that young talent. They could spend money on a bunch of guys and those contracts end up being duds. As well, how long does their window stay open for is another question. It's fair to say that Baltimore is an exciting young team to watch out for and they are. I wouldn't praise them as one of the best organizations until they go out there and show they're perennial contenders year in and out. Still, their FO has done a great job drafting and with player development. I don't know why some Jays posters on here go crazy when you suggest that.

    I have a Devil Rays hoody and hat. Pretty stylish.

    Moreno has struggled as of late. Offensively if he doesn't hit for a high batting average or hit for any power, his line definitely will look flat. If he develops into a 15HR bat and maintains a decent to high batting average, he'll be fine offensively given his defensive abilities. He's still only 23 like Jonn said. Again, I couldn't care if Moreno sucks or he has success in comparison to other posters on here who just are trying to prove a point that they were right or wrong about the trade. As long as Varsho is a 4-5 WAR outfielder each season, Jays will be more than fine. If Kirk can regain his 2022 form and be a 3-4 WAR catcher, even better!

    Yeah agree 100%. Astros had a better well-rounded team and deeper team for sure. Phillies did get lucky and hot at the right time which got them on a run to the Series. Their bullpen as well were pitching lights out for a period of time.

    Yeah when Gausman or Bassitt or Berrios are bad, they're bad. But that's once in a blue moon which is a good thing. Kikuchi has done a formidable job as a No. 5 starter. Not complaining at all with his performance. Sucks Manoah really s*** the bed this season. If he was a somewhat decent No. 3 starter, Jays definitely have a couple of more wins.

    How about all the times BTS and Laika were salivating over the Rays success all these years? I guess it's "f***ing stupid" according to you. How are they Jays fans? You should call them out. If you're a true fan of the game of baseball, you appreciate and give recognition to other organizations/teams or players when they do some things right or well. Obviously every time the Jays play the Rays or Orioles, I want the Jays to win. Though I also enjoy watching the Rays and Orioles occasionally because of their young talent, pitching etc. I don't know if I would say Baltimore is "one of the best current stories in sports" lol, though they definitely are a good story this season in baseball along with other teams like the Marlins, D'Backs and Rangers.

    Phillies had a great #1-2 punch in Nola and Wheeler, which I would consider one the better ones in the league while the rest of the rotation was meh. Gausman, Bassitt and Berrios should be more than fine in a short series. Would be nice to add another starter though to put this team in a better position, especially in case if one of those 3 get injured and so you don't have to start Kikuchi in the ALDS or ALCS.

    Atkins has been solid, not spectacular. There are things though you can criticize him and the FO on, while also giving them props for things as well. Some posters on here though don't understand that and don't allow you to criticize him on things though.

    Berrios looking really solid. He's been the key piece to this rotation as good as Gausman and Bassitt have been. Without Berrios pitching like a No. 2/3, Jays would be in trouble. Glad he's having a bounce back season!
  13. jaysblue
    Great buy low opportunity!

    Nah, your homerism just becomes too sickening sometimes it becomes so unbearable. You're one of the most annoying posters to argue with on this message board. At least some other posters if they disagree, they can offer value to the discussion. You can't have any rational discussions or think critically when it comes to this front office. You wear blinkers 24/7 buddy.
  15. jaysblue
    Because I'm critical or question some decisions made by this front office and because I'm not a die hard homer like Brownie? Yeah I guess I am a dumb f***. Keep sipping the Kool Aid!
  16. jaysblue
    Lol you're in a real pissy mood today. Where did I say the Blue Jays should resign him at all costs? I said if the term and AAV are good, I wouldn't oppose bringing him back. His defensive value alone is an asset even if his bat is meh. I'll take 2.5-3 WAR from him any day.
  17. jaysblue
    2015 had a very strong bench: Danny Valencia - 1.3 WAR Ryan Goins - 1.3 WAR Ben Revere - 0.7 WAR Justin Smoak - 0.7 WAR Chris Collabello - 1.4 WAR Other guys included Carrera, Barney, Navarro, Pompey who were meh, but they weren't negative WAR players at least. Other seasons had strong benches and BPs as well.
  18. jaysblue
    Of course Brownie liked this haha. It's a shame that these homers don't accept rational criticism. They're all wearing blinkers.
  19. jaysblue
    Nice cherry picking! It's too bad they have to play games against the AL East. Imagine if there wasn't a balanced schedule, Jays would be even worse.
  20. jaysblue
    Yeah unfortunately a lot of guys on this roster have turned into pumpkins.
  21. jaysblue
    Offensively for sure, but he still holds great value because of his defensive abilities.
  22. jaysblue
    Blue Jays should sign him.
  23. jaysblue
    Vladdy pretty much has turned into a Lyle Overbay first baseman. A .280/.350/450 line is pretty disappointing when he's capable of being a .300/.400/.550 type of bat.
  24. jaysblue
    Haven't you realized over the past 2-3 seasons under this FO, they like to ignore the bench and bullpen.
  25. jaysblue
    I wouldn't oppose to bringing him back if the term and AAV is fair.
