    That's definitely a good article/clip that I should show my classroom someday. Thanks!

    Chris Denorfia is a FA this offseason and he'd be a decent guy to bring aboard for some OF depth. Utilize him in the right situations, he could provide great value. Nick Markakis could also be a FA, and would be an intriguing guy that I'd love to bring aboard. I doubt the Orioles pick up his option. There's also the trade market as one poster alluded to before. Even bringing in someone like Seth Smith to platoon with someone wouldn't be all that bad. SS Reyes LF Smith/Denorfia RF Bautista 1B Encarncion DH Lind 3B Lawrie 2B ???? C Navarro CF Gose BN Valencia (platoons with Lind) BN Izturis/Kawasaki BN Thole Trade for Ben Zobrist to play second base and occasionally other positions when needed (likely Rays pick up his option). I'd rather do a platoon of Smith/Denorfia or bring in Markakis as a FA along with Denorfia than sign Melky to a 4-5 year deal.

    A Frank Catalanotto/Reed Johnson platoon worked very well in 2005 and 2006 and costed the Jays hardly anything. Cabrera will likely cost + 12M AAV over 4-5 years. He's not a special, elite type player. You can easily replace his production and value much cheaper, though we need a smart front office that could realize that.

    It's funny how everyone wanted Melky gone after his 2013 season and now everyone wants him back after the season he had in 2014. I likely wouldn't go 4-5 years on Melky, since he's going to be on the wrong side of 30 and I'm not sure he'd hold up in the outfield in the latter part of the deal.

    Does anyone have NFL Gamepass?

    lol the Jays won't pay for a top end starter.

    I'm sure a good 25-40% will be Cubs fans who made the trip up from Chicago or Cubs fans that live in the city. I'm sure the regular casual won't be going out of his/her way to see a bad Cubs teams during the week. I want to go both on the Tuesday and Wednesday. Looking forward to seeing guys like Rizzo, Baez and Soler. I've got some Cubs gear which I'll wear down!

    Beckett is contemplating retirement.

    Its because the Yankees were in town and it was Derek Jeter's last appearances at the RC and it was on the Labour Day weekend. If it was the Rays or another team I'm sure it would have been easy to get tickets. I refuse to spend over face value for tickets during the regular season, other than the home opener if it's an intriguing pitching matchup, when the games are meaningless.

    Imagine if Happ gets his ERA below 4! Buck will be fapping hard every telecast next year!

    Baseball will be back in Montreal...

    Colby was close to being a 5 WAR player last season. He was more valuable than Adam Jones last season!
  13. jaysblue
    I'd rather buy low on Colby Rasmus instead of bringing back Cabrera on a big contract. I think Colby will be undervalued on the market, and he'd definitely be worth bringing back in my opinion.

    Opening Day is the best day of the year.

    I miss Shelby Miller I was offered something for Castro right after I acquired him and I'm kind of regretting not doing it now. Though thats hindsight. Didn't expect him to get injured right after.
  18. jaysblue
    Damn Castro out for the rest of the season. I added him figuring he'd strengthen my lineup by shifting Danny Santana to 2B and Aaron Hill to my bench. Oh well.
  19. jaysblue
    Good comeback. 1-0 silvergun
  20. jaysblue
    I thought Ryan Vogelsong was good?
  21. jaysblue
    Oh wow I'm in the same division as my best pal Jay. This should be fun I think our love/hate relationship is worse than the Habs/Leafs rivalry
  22. jaysblue
    I have utmost respect for KGM, though he was a bozo during the draft...this is what I remember him saying, paraphrasing of course: "Fernandez was on the top of my draft board through I didn't think Holmberg was going to reach my second pick." lol

    The FC is a good league.
  24. jaysblue
    If you can sign Rasmus at a bargain, I don't mind bringing him back. His value has plummeted a lot this year and I'm sure he'll be undervalued by a lot of clubs.
  25. jaysblue
    Phil Hughes has been sensational this year. Nobody wanted him in the DDL league before the season started. I think I even offered Hughes for Rasmus at some point.
