  1. Not like this FO has been good at drafting anyways haha. Would be willing to sign Santander or Flaherty to a one-year deal with a high AAV.
  2. Man Puig just fell off the face of the earth here. Had so much promise. Shocked no MLB team signed him after 2019. Probably still could have been a 2-3 WAR outfielder here.

    NFL picks for today: Bills Packers Bucs
  4. You own him in the DDL haha.
  5. Yeah the difference is Kittredge is for only 1 year but meh. In comparison with Hoffman's $11M AAV, it does make Kittredge seem expensive. Would rather have Hoffman.
  6. A Wagner/Grichuk platoon at DH would work nicely. Grichuk could also act as a 4th outfielder who could play all 3 outfield positions. Still need to add one big bat for LF. Hopefully the market for Santander has cooled down and we could get him similar to Teo money. Other options could be Profar or Hays, but not too excited about them unless the team goes out and adds a power bat like Alonso. As for 3B, I suppose the Jays are content with rolling out Clement as the everyday option?
  7. Yes. Was just pondering after the Jeff Hoffman signing, maybe the price of BP arms has dropped in comparison to at the beginning of the offseason. We know the Jays need another starter, but would they be better off going after Tanner Scott if he comes in around the same AAV as Hoffman or a bit more rather than paying the price we've seen for mid-rotation starters this offseason? Could be a better way at spending money to add overall WAR on the pitching side. Agreed, would prefer the Jays to go after a big bat like Alonso or Santander with the remaining money they have.
  8. Thanks for answering the question actually.
  9. He wasn't an option. Was curious if the Jays had budget to add one more piece on the pitching side (which they still might), would people prefer Pivetta or Scott. Obviously, the Jays need to go out and add a big bat or two.
  10. The question asked if you could sign one, which one would it be. Obviously yes the team needs bats, but if money was available and you had to choose between Pivetta or Scott, who would you take?
  11. Australian Open starts up this weekend!
  12. If you had a choice and could only sign one, who would you rather sign right now: Nick Pivetta or Tanner Scott?
  13. Funny Travis Snider story. Went down to Boston in 2009 for my 21st birthday and the Jays were playing at Fenway at the end of August. Stayed at the same hotel as the Jays so saw a bunch of Jays players in the lobby hanging out or in the bar after the games. Saw Travis Snider walk in to the lobby with these two knockout blondes and took them back to his room. Lucky guy haha.
  14. Was really excited when the Jays brought him back in 2004 after he was coming off a solid bounce back year with the Orioles. Sad to see the way his 2004 season went with the Jays but oh well.
  15. A likely reason why some FA's might want to avoid signing in Toronto.
  16. I can't wait to see Ana de Armas and Sydney Sweeney in Eden!
  17. Ross Atkins loves to troll us all.
  18. Lorenzen would have been a nice add as an arm who could either start or pitch multiple innings out of the pen. Rosario at $2M is a bargain. Had a 2.8 and 3 WAR in 2021 and 2022. Either way, he still can be a valuable utility guy if you're okay with the subpar glove.
  19. Yeah it can be annoying and tiring dealing with a bunch of these tire kickers. Once in the blue, you get a decent person to deal with. It's always best to list your items more than what you want to get in your pocket, because of this very reason. Even if you list something below value, you'll likely have a couple schmucks still asking if you can do better on the price. For example, if I'm okay with letting a video game go for $30, will list it at $40 since everyone messaging me asks if I could do a lower price. I then say yeah I can do $30 and usually will get someone to pick it up. If I list it at $30, every message will be asking if I could do a lower price. To avoid scammers on expensive items, always agree to meet at a police station, where they usually have a buy/sell exchange zones. When I sold an extra PS5 I had, met the buyer at a police station. Otherwise, I had people asking for my address or asking me to meet them in a parking lot of their apartment building lmao.
  20. 1 year deal worth $5M Doubt Quintana signs for that low, but maybe this impacts his market a bit and we get Quintana for around $8M-10M which would be swell.
  21. Atkins is that guy on Kijiji or Facebook Marketplace who always asks what's the best price and then sends you a lowball.
