    Yeah as much as I like Nimmo, when I start hearing 5-6 years and close to $100M or more, doesn't sit comfortable with me.
  2. jaysblue
    You hope Vladdy rebounds in 2023, and Lourdes could provide some more pop. Along with what Bellinger could provide offensively. Signing another bat would be nice to play a corner and DH, like Michael Brantley. Ideally, if they could trade for a young outfielder under control, that would be best.

    Should have bet USA and Wales as a tie, damn. They screwed my parlay.
  4. jaysblue
    Where would you bat Bellinger in the lineup? Just curious.
  5. jaysblue
    If Bellinger posts a 4-5 WAR season in 2023, he'll get a huge payday. Best route for a long term CF is through trade.
  6. jaysblue
    And Money talks.
  7. jaysblue
    Agree 100%. From Bellinger's perspective, Blue Jays are probably the best match. Team is going to be competitive. They just traded Teo so are in need of an OF replacement, someone who can play CF. He knows playing time here won't be an issue. As well, look at Marcus Semien as a recent example. Signed a 1 year contract in Toronto and rebuilt his value to land a huge contract. Belly is thinking the same thing. Playing 81 games at the Rogers Centre is going to help. Toronto I think is a perfect fit.

    I don't think so. Maybe more than $300M for sure, but would rather see him prove 2021 was no fluke. Would rather spend $350M on Vladdy after another 6 WAR season in 2023 rather than gamble on giving him $300M after his 2022 season.
  9. jaysblue
    I'm okay with either one of Bellinger or Conforto at 1 year around $15 million. Conforto would be a safer bet from an offensive standpoint, though Belly would offer more upside if he comes close to his MVP season. If they could sign both, even better haha.

    Yeah the CFL fan base is mostly an older fan base from the 70s/80s along with their kids or family members or friends of players who play in the CFL. The league does need to do a better job at targeting a younger audience. Out west in Winnipeg, Saskatchewan and Calgary, they don't really have a problem. CFL fan base out there is huge. Even Hamilton isn't that bad. The CFL lacks in the bigger cosmopolitan cities like Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal. The CFL needs to adopt a similar rule as the MLS does. Where you can roster 2 or 3 players, pay them any type of contract which doesn't count towards the salary cap. Better way at keeping some of the younger stars or even bringing in some retired NFL stars or player who are near the end of their career.

    Yeah agreed. He would have to come close to his 2021 form and even perform better. I was thinking it with being a contract year, he could have a big season. But realistically, 2-3 WAR is most likely where he sits.
  12. jaysblue
    Yeah Judge is over 30. If he was 27 or 28, then maybe, but even still. I don't think there is a rush to lock up Vladdy or Bo just yet. Want to see Vladdy come close to his 2021 performance and then I feel comfortable giving him $300M over 8 or 10 years.
  13. jaysblue
    If Teo posts a 4-5 WAR season in 2023, then short term will benefit the Mariners. Jays have to hope Swanson posts a 1.5 WAR season and is a fixture in the bullpen. As well, Jays got to use that extra money wisely on another OF. If they do, then Jays IMO won't regret trading Teo. Jays pretty much improve the bullpen without losing too much in the outfield (even if they sign a lesser OF than Teo).

    Those last 5 minutes were crazy. Can't believe they pulled it off. CFL is a fun league to watch. Doesn't get the love it deserves.

    Italy is going to win it all this year!

    Leafs going to win the Cup! Worth spending $500 to sit in the nosebleeds tonight!!!

    Andrew B is a better sign than Brandon Nimmo at over $100M.
  19. jaysblue
    The end goal is to win a World Series. Yes the Jays had a solid season, though no player or fan should be jumping for joy the way the season went overall.
  20. jaysblue
    Why do you assume that? He's only 27 years old and only played in 96 games last season because he wasn't 100%. It's not like he's in his 30's and his last good season was 4-5 years ago.
  21. jaysblue
    Did Randal Grichuk ever put together a 5+ WAR season at the age of 25?
  22. jaysblue
    I stated that the Cards would probably expect Kirk back in a deal if they dealt Nootbar because of the control. Could be wrong but we'll see. Don't think they would take two years of Jansen for 5 years of Nootbar.
  23. jaysblue
    You idiot. His career year was in 2021, only one season ago lmao and he's only 27. If O'Neill had a 5 WAR season in 2022, he wouldn't even be available for Jansen. You're buying low on O'Neill!
  24. jaysblue
    You must really love Canadian ballplayers!
  25. jaysblue
    Jansen for Tyler O'Neill would be great and a very solid replacement for Teo. Very fair swap for both teams IMO. Under control for two more seasons and can even be better than Teo (5-6 WAR potential as we've seen). Plus in his second arbitration year and with the season he had, he won't take up as much payroll as Teo would obviously.
