Most teams probably asked for names like Sanchez, Stroman or Travis when it came to talks on guys like Sale, Eaton, Blackmon and others.
-
Could possibly entertain moving him in the LOD since I have SS depth.
-
Rockies need a 1B. Stupid on their part.
-
Bruce Oberholtzer is the new Bruce Tallet.
-
Probably. It would either be him or Travis as leadoff. Seems like the Royals really want to get rid of him and that they don't appreciate his true value. What do you think it would cost to acquire him? I agree he can be signed to a team-friendly extension (something in the range of 2/12M).
-
It wouldn't shock me if Bautista put up better offensive numbers over EE if healthy. I don't mind Bautista playing 50-60 games in LF, 50-60 games at 1B and the rest at DH. Obviously the less time he's in the outfield, the better.
-
Jose Bautista is not a bad Plan B option if Dexter Fowler can't be signed. Signing both I think would be ideal, since it would only cost money instead of prospects. I think if the Jays fail to sign Fowler, don't retain one of Bautista or EE, and fail to make a big trade for Adam Eaton etc., that would be a huge PR disaster. They need to at least sign one of those players. Lineup with Fowler & Bautista would be pretty darn good: RF Fowler 3B Donaldson LF/DH Bautista SS Tulowitzki 1B/DH Morales 1B/DH/LF Pearce 2B Travis C Martin CF Pillar If they can't sign Fowler, then I hope they could trade for either Adam Eaton or Jarrod Dyson.
-
He only has two years left of control which definitely plays a factor. As well, it seems like the Kings have been shopping him for the last 18 months now for an obvious reason and I'm sure other teams are aware of the risk that comes with Cousins. It definitely would have to involve JV + Ross or Powell + high draft picks no doubt.
-
Cousins is a legit scoring threat...
-
They need Cousins if they want to have a chance at beating Cleveland.
-
Grant is probably very angry right now!
-
Called up Patrick Laine. My season turns around starting tomorrow!
-
RF Fowler 3B Donaldson 1B/DH Holliday SS Tulowitzki 1B/DH Morales 2B Travis C Martin LF Dyson/Upton CF Pillar Definitely a solid lineup.
-
Dyson would be a nice guy to have around as a platoon bat/4th outfielder. Much better than Revere IMO. Edit: just looked at his stats on Fangraphs now and wow. Guy has posted 1.4, 2.5, 3.0, 1.8, and 3.1 WAR since 2012. And thats with limited playing time. I thought only last season was his real breakout season, but he's been really good for the last 5 years.
-
It varies per game since they use dynamic pricing. Like tonight's seats are $66 for SSH ($100 face value). Some other games could be $46 or $37, while the higher tiered games are $91 and $115 (e.g. vs Cleveland and Golden State). Seats are in Sec 320, Row 6 so close to centre court and not to far up. Really good value for upper bowl seats.
-
Yeah I think the Astros could use one more front end starter to make them the team to beat in the AL. Chris Archer or Jose Quintana would be nice fits and they have the assets to swing such a deal. Astros will be a fun team to watch in 2017.
-
Expensive seats are never that easy to resell, especially when against bad teams or on a weeknight. Same thing with mainly any sports team like the Leafs and even the Raptors, which is why I got upper level seats instead of lower bowl for my Raps season tickets.
-
Sign him to a similar contract Charlie Morton just got, even slightly more. He'd be a perfect pickup and would be insurance for 2018 with Estrada and Liriano as FA's. We've seen Shapiro and Atkins make moves that cover them for the following year if they know they might have holes there, so Ross does make sense. As well, Rubby De La Rosa would be a nice target as well as a spot starter/long reliever.
-
I'm sure he'll still get 400-500 AB's from either behind the plate, 1B, DH and LF.
-
If anybody wants tickets to tonights Raps game vs. Atlanta, send me a PM. Will sell at my season seat holder price.
-
I wish. The land at Ontario Place isn't being used, so kind of makes sense as a spot if they were going to build a new ballpark, though doubt that happens in the next 10 years.
-
Ontario Place is the next best bet.
-
Would actually be nice to make a play for both Stephen Vogt and Sean Doolittle if possible.
-
What are your thoughts on Stephen Vogt? Can be a backup catcher, play LF (platoon with Upton) and 1B. Could see the A's trading him if he gets expensive in arbitration. Would be a nice fit here in the Jays lineup.
-
I'm sure they can add an extension to the street car lines, and that they could run extra express buses from Union Station and the GO Station. Driving down would be a lot easier as well. As for walkup traffic, everything is done online these days so if people who work downtown want to go to the game after work, they can just go online and purchase them. And with every game almost being a sellout in the summer months, they really don't need to depend on walkup crowds to fill up the ballpark. Also, there is enough space to add like a boardwalk Wrigleyville type area with bars/restaurants etc. right on the water. You can get awesome views from Ontario Place for sure. It would be a perfect spot for a new ballpark. The Don Lands are way too far out there and tough to get to by public transit.
