    Atkins/Shapiro given close to a $300M payroll and the sad reality is they could still f**k it up.

    Didn't start off that well and just a couple of weeks ago with the Sasaki fiasco, things were still looking bleak, though at least the team did have a pivot after losing out on Soto, Burnes, Teo, Sasaki and others. Whereas last offseason, after Ohtani they didn't do to much to upgrade the roster and the waiting game left them with guys like Turner, IKF, Volgelbach and Votto instead. Think the Sasaki negative press definitely lit a fire under Atkins' and this front office to do something and glad we saw them go out and make a big splash in Santander and now Scherzer. Overall, definitely give them a solid B+ thus far. If they go out and add another big bat like Alonso or Bregman and/or resign Vladdy, definitely bump their offseason to an A or A+.

    It's a shame they're pissing away that amazing rotation. Complete embarrassment!

    Definitely looking forward going down to the Rogers Centre and watching some of Max Scherzer's starts this spring and summer! Imagine if the Jays can get a Rogers Clemens type season out of him haha.

    Not sure if it's just me, but the pages in each thread seem to go on forever since we got to scroll down a lot. Like I have to scroll down over posts I've already read and it takes a while to get to the new ones down at the bottom of the page. As well, the ads in the middle of the threads when scrolling down through posts. Prefer them on the side, top or bottom of the pages. Not in the middle of posts.

    We all were entertained in the LOD two nights ago!

    Should have him join the new message board haha

    What is this TGL golf? So they play virtual for the first half of the hole and then play the green?
  9. jaysblue
    Yeah not a bad idea. Can always move BP pieces at the deadline as well.
  10. jaysblue
    I would as well, depending on the price. Though we already have Ernie Clement 😅
  11. jaysblue
    If the Jays strike out on Alonso and Bregman, wouldn't mind them spending that money on an arm like Flaherty.
  12. jaysblue
    Likely looking for another replacement owner for the Angels now.

    Ok sounds good. Virtual hand shake. So this bet will be active if the Jays sign both Alonso and Mad Max?
  15. jaysblue
    Haha ok just wanted to clarify so Postseason is excluded then? I'll do that bet with you as well. So Yankees more wins/higher position in standings during regular season. If tied with wins, we'll apply the MLB tiebreak rules, if you're good with that.
  16. jaysblue
    Are we going to go by Regular Season wins/position in standings at end of the season?

    Beltran and Jones should get in. Both have a career 67 WAR and were impactful ball players during their respective periods. I don't think Wright gets in despite almost having the same career WAR as Mauer. As for Martin and McCann, hope both get in and don't have to wait around long. Shame that Mauer gets in on first ballot, though both Martin/McCann likely have to wait almost a decade to get in possibly.

    Felix was so dominant in his early 20's and then fell apart once he hit 30. Imagine if he aged like Verlander or Scherzer, he likely would be close to 80-90 WAR. I remember in 2009, was sitting behind the Mariners dugout. Saw Felix pop out and was looking around at the crowd between innings. I started chanting "Cy Young, Cy Young" and he tossed me a ball haha.

    $20 friendly bet the Yankees finish ahead of the Blue Jays? A bet I wouldn't mind losing actually.

    I would never count out the Yankees or Red Sox and the Rays after a down season in 2024 are bound to bounce back and be a sleeper. AL East is still the toughest division in the AL. Mariners pitching staff is the best, but they need some bats. Astros still should be solid even after losing Tucker and Bregman, but not the same force as they were before in previous years. Rangers should bounce back. Athletics are my sleeper team in 2025 and see them snagging one of the WC spots. Cleveland didn't really do much IMO. Twins look like they have the best all-around roster in the AL Central. Royals should be good again, but not really any huge improvements. Tigers should continue to get better with their young roster but haven't made any big additions.

    I'm hoping I could make it down to a Pirates game this summer. Really want to see Skenes pitch in person. Heard Pittsburgh is a pretty cool city as well.

    Also, I think Acuna might not be 100% healthy for the start of the season, so was a good idea going after another outfielder. Plus, Harris seems like he's a bit injury prone and Kelenic still has been a disappointment at the MLB level. Too bad Profar can't play SS anymore.
  23. jaysblue
    Ross Atkins seems like the guy on Tinder who swipes right on every profile haha.
  24. jaysblue
    Yankees still.
  25. jaysblue
    Hopefully Santander doesn't become like Kendrys Morales haha. Look, I think the Anthony Santander signing was very solid and happy the Jays went out and got a 30-40 HR masher which is what this lineup badly needed. At the same time, I'm not all of a sudden anointing Atkins as a king just for making this signing.
