  1. You should drop Gose, he wasn't part of the trade. Violation on your part. lol jks I like Cain to an extent, but I don't think I'll be making the playoffs anyway unless a miracle happens.
  2. Yeah crazy an unimportant BP piece was moved for the 39th pick. Abusrd. Time to sell off Todd Redmond for a comp pick
  3. I've never experienced having a team with this many players banged up or on the DL. It's absurd. Just when I thought I was able to start fielding a full outfield after acquiring Brown, I lose Myers to the DL and Maybin left yesterday's game in the 2nd, ugh. And Tex's wrist is acting up again. This year has been a total disaster. Even Brown is sitting today because Niese is pitching. Likely won't be starting an outfield today lol
  4. I booked a trip to Vegas the week after the Hurl gets back so we need to delay the draft by an extra week.
  5. Joe Carter's home run in 93. He was an all-time Blue Jay great - probably the best player in club history because of that hit.
  6. Yeah can get seats in the premium dugout area for $45-50ish.
  7. I could see this happening. False hope relying on Morrow to pitch like a No. 2 starter for the like the millionth time!
  8. Spanky still manages so that is not a valid excuse. And his team is in contention
  9. Personally, I don't have a problem with the date being pushed back. Couldn't care. Just hope this isn't an issue every time with waiver drafts, June drafts, trade deadlines, etc. In my 30 team salary league, we had free agency in January. I was in Australia the entire month and when I had time and access, I would check and make bids. I wasn't able to give my full attention to it unfortunately but oh well.
  10. Not a valid reason to change the date. What happens if I go to the cottage when the draft takes place and have no internet connection? Can we push the date back?
  11. I'm heading to Europe in August - can we get the trade deadline pushed back? (just joking...don't need it pushed back but see the problem?). I'm not being an ass or anything, though I don't think it should change just because Kev is going to Vegas. I was up in Muskoka last year during the draft and had no internet connection whatsoever. We shouldn't change important dates based on somebody's personal schedule. I don't care if we change the date, though then this can happen every time. If we are voting on the date, it's something that should be permanent moving forward. Also, usually when we vote on something, the change takes place the following year.
  12. Just picked up Anthony Gose to help my outfield. Does awesome range and defense count towards anything?
  13. Yeah should have rephrased my statement - the Bills have not been a success here. Most of the Canadian NFL fans don't really have one team they follow - it's really spread out. You'll have bandwagon fans hopping on the Seahawks bandwagon, Patriots fans, Broncos fans, Giants fans, 49ers fans etc. There really isn't a team loyalty. Can an NFL team thrive here? Possibly. First a new NFL stadium would need to be built - they can't play at the Rogers Centre (lets be realistic). A new stadium likely needs to be build outside of the city like in Vaughn or Mississauga. Also, I'm sure it will be a huge fad in the first year, but if the team doesn't have success for an extended period of time, you're not going to get 80K at each game. Also, like said before even by NFL people, if an NFL team moves to Toronto, they need to make sure that they can co-exist with the CFL. They can co-exhist.
  14. I'm sure if Halifax had a team back when you were on the East Coast, you would be a die hard lol jks. To each's own. I'll watch both the NFL and CFL. I enjoy the CFL, it's entertaining to watch. I won't go out of my way to make it to every Argo game, but I'll go once or twice on a nice night in the summer and go to their playoff games in November. I went to see the Argos play in Montreal last summer, which was a great atmosphere. I agree games at the Rogers Centre suck - far way from the field and not the best atmosphere to watch a game in. I'd love to experience watching a game in Saskatchewan one summer - I heard going to a game there is awesome. Same with some other places in Western Canada.
  15. Butler and Hosmer are killing me in my 30-team dynasty salary league. Just awful. The whole Royals lineup like Nick said hasn't hit for any power whatsoever.
  16. McCowan asked Beeston on PTS if the grass could be installed quicker if the Argos found a new home sooner and Beeston still said 2018 was the earliest they could get grass installed, regardless of the Argos situation.
  17. An NFL team wouldn't thrive in Toronto. The Bills have been a huge disappointment.
  18. They were the last Toronto team to win a championship and they have actually played meaningful games at the Rogers Centre over the past two decades, something the Jays have not. I'm really sick of the CFL bashing on here. I don't mind the CFL, it's actually quite entertaining to watch and there is some good talent in the league. Also, CFL games are broadcasted in the U.S. on ESPN3 and it does draw a lot of viewers.
  19. Just watching CJ close out games is so much more comforting than watching Santos. It goes to show you that xFIP isn't the be-all and end-all stat for pitchers. You always have to take other things into factor.
  20. That was probably Grant. Heard he was visiting from North Bay.
  21. I think in my first draft I took the following Travis d'Arnaud Jonathan Singleton Nolan Arenado Matt Davidson James Paxton Daniel Corcino Then in the second draft took guys like Devin Williams, Robbie Ray, Cesar Puello, Micah Johnson (not Michal Johnson), Tyler Pike, Dilson Herrera. Didn't have a 1st or 2nd round pick I believe. Traded Singleton in a deal for Piscotty. Also traded Puello, Davidson, Paxton in other deals. Arenado has obviously been my best pick in the third round of the first draft.
  22. My DL lineup: Mike Napoli Carlos Beltran Shane Victorino Jurickson Profar Avsail Garcia Nolan Arenado
