    He was really good in 2012 and 2013. I'd be willing to give him a mulligan on 2014.

    When looking at mechanics, Mark Prior is an interesting case to study. Didn't scouts before say he had "perfect" mechanics? The Inverted W arm action has caused some debate. I've always loved Mark Prior - its unfortunate that his career was cut short. Some of the best stuff I've ever seen. http://www.midwestsportsfans.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Mark-Prior.jpg Some cool articles from this guy Chris O'Leary who studies pitching mechanics: http://clients.chrisoleary.com/Pitching/Inverted-W/The-Science-Behind-the-Inverted-W http://www.chrisoleary.com/projects/pitchingmechanics101/Essays/MarkPriorPitchingMechanics.html

    I know, though he'll bitch and complain if you ever moved him out of the rotation. Plus, it's not the most viable move anyways. He's still a very good starter who provides quality innings out of the rotation. Moving him to the bullpen and having him pitch every second day like you're suggesting doesn't make any sense.

    Dickey won't allow that to happen lol.

    I'd rather throw that kind of money at a starter agreed - not sure the Jays have enough payroll space for Shields, though I'd definitely offer Masterson a similar deal to what Phil Hughes got last offseason.

    If anyone is interested in making any moves, shoot me a PM or trade proposal over Yahoo.

    I'd like to see Gregerson brought over here - the guy has been one of the most consistent late inning relievers in baseball. Whether they make him the closer or setup man, he'll be valuable. Likely will require a 3 year deal I'd say. As for Robertson, I'm not sure I'd sign him for 4-5 years over $40 million. I mean the thought of him having a season like BJ Ryan's 2006 season definitely is tempting; however he could also blowout his elbow in the next year or two and barely pitch. Handing out big deals to relievers is risky. I'd rather let Brett Cecil have a shot in the closers role - though that means if he has success, he'll be way more expensive in 2016.

    Masterson could be a good buy low - wouldn't mind rolling the dice on him as the No. 5 guy, since he could provide top-of-the-rotation value if everything goes right. I'd definitely sign him to a 2-3 year deal, similar to what Phil Hughes got from the Twins last offseason - could end up being a bargain.

    Just curious, did anyone post this video lol: http://wapc.mlb.com/cutfour/2014/12/04/103178314/young-blue-jays-fan-is-an-emotional-wreck-after-brett-lawrie-trade

    Dickey + Josh Thole for Justin Upton - get it done AA!
  17. jaysblue
    I don't mind giving Smoak a chance at 1B/DH, especially after the Jays additions of Donaldson, Martin and Saunders. I think the lineup will be fine.
  18. jaysblue
    I mean non-tender candidates from other teams lol.
  19. jaysblue
    Who are some intriguing non-tender candidates?
  20. jaysblue
    Bob Ryan is awful.
  21. jaysblue
    You are valuing Lehtonen more than Kessel or Getzlaf?

    Can't wait for the Pats/Packers game at 4:25!!! Should be awesome! Those two teams are my Super Bowl picks.
  23. jaysblue
    I can't believe Martin Brodeur is coming back lol. Well in a league where there are no goalies available on the waiver wire, I could do much worse.
  24. jaysblue
    Which team are you?
