    I will admit, golf has got more exciting now with the talent on tour. And hoping Tiger Woods could make some sort of a comeback.

    I prefer him as a starter obviously though if you're Liriano and you could pitch at an elite level out of the BP, from a financial standpoint it might be enticing. Lets say he pitches 70-80 innings with a low 2 ERA, 25-30 holds & 100 K's this season, would that net him more money & a longer contract possibly? Obviously if he fails as a reliever, he screws himself. Even as a mediocre starter who pitches 180 innings with an ERA around 4, he should still get 1/10 easily.

    Wouldn't shock me if Logan demands 4 years as well after this Cecil deal. There is no harm in rolling the dice with any of those arms above especially if they only require a cheap 1-year contract. Could likely have Matusz or Venters on a minor league contract anyways.

    They need him as a starter. Rubby De La Rosa would be a nice SP to target as a reliever.

    With the way the market looks to be going for elite relievers, if you're Francisco Liriano would you prefer to be a starter or a late-inning reliever in 2017? If Liriano has a mediocre season as a starter, he likely only gets a 1-2 year deal as a FA. If he pitches lights out of the BP, he could be in line for a better pay cheque. Especially if the Blue Jays utilize him like Cleveland did with Andrew Miller and using him multiple innings if need be or bringing him in tight spots early in a game etc. The idea isn't too far fetched.

    Michael Dunn is interesting. Always has had solid K rates, though he can be wild at times. Marc Rzepczynski is a FA as well and could be an interesting target. Brian Matusz could be a good buy low. Same with Johny Venters. I'd roll the dice on either of those two.
  7. jaysblue
    Cecil's high ERA comes from before 2013 when he struggled as a starter. Since then, he's been a pretty darn good reliever so I don't get what type of argument you're trying to make here.
  8. jaysblue
    It's not that bad. Basically around 7.5M per season. If he stays healthy and pitches 240-280 very good innings for them during those 4 years, he's worth it.
  9. jaysblue
    Yeah I would have been comfortable with him back at 3/24, though I wouldn't do 4 years with him.
  10. jaysblue
    A deal likely would have to start with Travis + Stroman + more IMO.
  11. jaysblue
    AL Cy Young Rick Porcello is available.
  12. jaysblue
    Does this mean we get 26-man rosters in the LOD?
  13. jaysblue
    Keep dreaming man, he's strictly a 1B/DH lol.
  14. jaysblue
    Never knew Napoli could play all over the field...
  15. jaysblue
    Yeah I don't see him hitting .270 again. Likely his BA sits more around .240-.250 with 15-20 HR pop still. We've seen late bloomers like Bautista and EE find success later into their careers. S-Rod always had a solid profile coming up with intriguing raw power for a guy his size. Like you said, the fact that he could play every position and since this as an aging roster, he could be a vital piece.
  16. jaysblue
    He has been a super utility player in Pittsburgh the past two seasons. Never given a starting role. He can play all over the field. As for his salary, he's not going to demand that much. Probably a 2 year deal worth $8-10 million at most.
  17. jaysblue
    S-Rod is an upgrade over Barney, Goins, Carrera etc. Don't see why people think he would be a waste. Far from it.
  18. jaysblue
    .270/.349/.510 slashline with 18 HR's in 300 AB, 129 wRC+ and 1.9 WAR. Always has hit well at the Rogers Centre as well.
  19. jaysblue
    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.
  20. jaysblue
    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.
  21. jaysblue
    And maple syrup.
  22. jaysblue
    He's Canadian.
  23. jaysblue
    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?
