He wasn't going to get $70 + million like people on here were throwing around. He's a platoon bat, entering his 30's. Would have been the most expensive platoon player ever.

Sean Rodriguez emerging as possible fit for #BlueJays
jaysblue replied to Gary's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Big fan of S-Rod dating back all the way to his days in the Angels system and with the Rays. Think he still has some untapped potential. -
And maple syrup.
-
He's Canadian.

Always see Jerry at the coffee shop near me. Great guy personally. He's a class act. I'm glad they caught it early and hope for a speedy recovery!
-
LeBron was triggered by the word "posse." I guess the SJW's got to him!
-
Would you bolt for the extra $6M?
-
I say he gets 3/$21 million.

Bleachers are a blast at Wrigley. Went back in 2009 for a weekend and for my first game it was against the Pirates. Sat in the second row in left field and fans were heckling Nyjer Morgan nonstop which was hilarious. No crude or offensive language which was the good thing.

Raps always play Golden State well. Wouldn't shock me if its a close game down to the final 2-3 minutes, though sucks with the way they set up the schedule which could definitely make it a blowout. Cleveland and then Golden State back to back! Who the f*** came up with that idea? They should be fired!

He's a very likeable guy and with the Raptors success the past 2-3 seasons with him at the helm along with Lowry, you wanted to keep that winning culture together. Team chemistry is more important in sports like basketball than it is in baseball IMO since its such a small locker room. Plus, who else could have they brought in realistically who would have been better? At the end of the day, even if DeRozan wasn't play at this high of a level to start the year, I'm still OK with the signing.

Buying on a game to game basis when I feel like going down to a game. Might scoop up some single game tickets during the first day of ticket sales to some of the bigger games like the Home Opener, Canada Day game, and some premium weekend games in the summer. Otherwise, for games in April/May & most weeknight games, I'll just buy tickets for less off StubHub. Also, looking to go to Chicago in August to see the Cubs series, so will be trying to buy those the first day when Cubs tickets go on sale in February.

They had a lot of holes in the rotation last offseason so they signed Happ and Estrada pretty early in the offseason. They have a lot of holes in the lineup this offseason, so they signed Morales who might not be the best option, though is better than being left empty handed. Wouldn't shock me if we see the Jays sign a corner outfielder in the next couple of days as well.
-
We've seen Shapiro & Atkins move fast in the offseason so far during their tenure locking up players due to the risk of them losing out on other bigger names and/or paying higher prices. They did the same thing with Happ and Estrada last season to shore up the rotation early. They did the same thing in August when resigning Smoak (which I was totally against). Wouldn't shock me if they try and lock up a corner outfielder over the next couple of days following this move. Seems like this front office is more worried about having security around the roster.
-
He's a switch hitter and moving to a ballpark like Toronto can definitely improve his numbers. Likely just to stick as the DH hopefully. 11M/3 years is a lot better than spending $25 M on EE for 5 years.
-
I'd still look at Beltran as a DH & part-time corner outfielder. Would be a perfect fit for this lineup. Likely would take a 2 year deal in the $36-40 million range. Matt Holliday could be really interesting as a DH/1B as well. Wonder if Tulo can help recruit him to play here. A one year deal worth $12-15 million might be able to get him here. I know Beltran and Holliday are old, though both can at least still provide above average production if healthy and only require a short term commitment versus resigning EE at 5 years.

My team sucks.
-
You can have Dexter Fowler back.
-
I can't take the MLS seriously.
-
This is good news.

Cubs vs Indians 2016 World Series Discussion
jaysblue replied to FrozenRopes's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I found when I was in Cleveland for Game 1 & 2 of the ALCS, most of the fans in Cleveland were very friendly and welcoming. Some even came up to us in bars before the game asking if we drove from Toronto, have we ever been to Cleveland before and even said they think it'll be a tough series. There were some idiots who would heckle you, though you just ignore them. Otherwise, I found there fanbase to be quite friendly. -

If the game was at Wrigley and the Cubs walked off in extras, just imagine how crazy it would be. Probably would go down as one of the best baseball games ever. -

I don't really care who wins. Just want to see a great game that is close throughout the entire 9 innings. Don't want a blowout like yesterday.
