    Tough one, but I think Chapman can get $80-100M for sure.
  2. jaysblue
    Yeah I don't understand why some posters would think Toronto can't offer him full playing time here. Jays aren't signing him to big money just to be a platoon, unless like you said he's hitting .180 after the first three months.

    Jays are in win now mode. If they could sign all 3 of those guys, worth going over IMO. Would prefer Conforto and Rogers. Kluber and Cueto would be a flip of the coin for me haha.

    I don't think it would hurt. You can never have enough pitching. Bringing a vet like Cueto or Kluber as a No. 5 is only going to cost money - likely around $10M. Having Kikuchi and White as your No. 6 and 7 heading into the season is a lot better IMO. You'll feel the ripple effects if an injury happens to a top arm like Gausman or Manoah or Bassitt or if Berrios misses time etc. Always good to have some insurance rather than scrambling over 162 game season. When the Postseason comes around, you really don't care about Cueto or Kluber unless you need them because of an injury. Though the focus should be building the best roster over 162 game season.

    Agreed, from a depth perspective, the Jays have a very deep bullpen with solid arms. Though they do need another elite high K% arm who can act as a bridge to Romano to really solidify the bullpen. They've done a great job building depth with guys like Garcia, Bass, Cimber, Pop, Mayza, though they aren't guys I want pitching in a 1-run game in the 8th inning. Hopefully they could add another arm like Rogers via free agency and hope maybe Pearson/Merryweather can become a special arm down in the pen.

    https://www.mlb.com/news/best-mlb-free-agents-remaining Not many great options left haha. Jurickson Profar could be interesting since he could play all over and is a switch hitter, though doubt the Blue Jays are interested. I think the Jays are best to target a younger OF under control via trade if they could.

    Yeah the first 75-80 mins of the game were boring with Argentina dominating and France looking awful. Thought it was over. Though after getting that penalty kick, France just went to another gear. The last ten minutes and extra time afterwards were awesome. Hate when a match is decided by penalty kicks, but happy Argentina was able to win.

    Yeah I remember at the beginning of the offseason when things were starting off slow, we all were wanting some big headlines haha. Now every major FA signed before Christmas means January likely will be a slow baseball news month. Hoping for at least a couple of blockbuster trades.

    I think Turner's bat will be a nice fit at Fenway, but agreed if he's only going to DH, keeping JD Martinez around on a one-year deal would have been better IMO.
  10. jaysblue
    Yeah if you can't play him in left field that much, not worth it. Plus have to open up a roster spot for him. Just thought as a lefty bat with some good OBP skills who could play around 1B/DH/ and LF occasionally when you need.

    I hope so, but they need to clean up their act. Against a team like the Chiefs or Eagles, won't cut it.
  12. jaysblue
    How about Brandon Belt? Wouldn't be a bad fit in Toronto.

    Bills really need to smarten up. I know they won yesterday, but they don't look a SuperBowl team the sloppy way they have been playing.

    Instead of paying a yearly fee for Fantrax premium, that money should go towards buying a bottle!
  15. jaysblue
    Wonder where he could sign. Dodgers and the Yankees definitely would be interested and need a 3B. A reunion with Baltimore is possible. Hope he stays out of the AL East though.

    Rogers Home Phone Call to the Bullpen for Taylor Rogers!

    Had a hard boiled egg yesterday. Usually eat eggs every morning.

    Don't blame him.

    Trevor May heads to A's on 1-year deal.
  21. jaysblue
    If you can get him for 30M/3, would be pretty darn good IMO. ' I thought with the crazy market, he likely could get 15M AAV over 4-5 years. But maybe I'm wrong.
  22. jaysblue
    At a restaurant or from the LCBO? Never have. On a special occasion if I'm going out to eat at a nice restaurant, I'll splurge $70-80 on a bottle which still feels like a rip off. But maybe once or twice a year and that's it. I have splurged $300 on a bottle of Hennessey XO, no regrets haha.
  23. jaysblue
    I still expect the O's to have a good season in 2023. But yeah, shocked they never added a big FA or two this offseason.
  24. jaysblue
    Rogers would be that nice final piece to the bullpen, though not sure if they have enough payroll to go after him. He's likely getting a 5-year-deal around $60-70 million.
  25. jaysblue
    Can't believe the Orioles haven't spent anything this offseason.
