  1. Keep dreaming buddy!
  2. Santander ain't coming to Toronto lol.
  3. Damnit!
  4. Definitely would be a sick infield defensively with Chapman, Adames and Bregman.
  5. Yeah Yankees could use a 3B and then move Jazz to 2B or the outfield.
  6. To play him at 2B?
  7. No lmao. If you think that's the batting lineup 1 through 9, you crazy haha.
  8. Yeah nice pickup by the Tigers. He should bounce back and give them 2-3 WAR.
  9. Lineup: C Kirk 1B Alonso 2B Gimenez SS Bichette 3B Guerrero LF Hernandez or Santander CF Varsho RF Springer DH Wagner and use as a revolving door
  10. Jays lineup needs power anyway they could get it. Would sign Alonso to a one-year pillow worth $25M or so and move Vladdy to 3B in a 60/40 split with Clement. The days Vladdy doesn't play 3B, move him to 1B and have Alonso DH, or have Vladdy DH while Alonso plays 1B. Keep the DH spot a revolving door for players to get rest like Springer, Vladdy, Alonso, Bo, etc. Sign a bat like Teo or Santander for LF on top of that. Or as a Plan B, sign Profar. Lineup doesn't look that bad after at all.
  11. Hopefully he improves. I got him in the LOD haha!
  12. Would take that deal in a heartbeat. I don't think Fried is anything that special in fantasy baseball. He's a better arm for a team in real life. His K/9 isn't elite like other top starters available. Maybe he'll rack up high Win totals with the Yankees, and a solid low 3 or high 2 ERA but that's it. He's also an injury risk as well.
  13. Happy Boxing Day week!
  14. If the Jays ended up trading Alex Rios to the Giants after the 2007 season, what could have been haha.
  15. Turned out to be a fantastic signing by AA. Martin played a big role on both the 2015 and 2016 teams. Hope Martin can make his way into the HoF at some point.
  16. Jays just need to make a decision regarding Vladdy rather than staying in limbo. 1) Trade him for young MLB ready pieces and still remain competitive (like L54 said, you free up $30M in arb money that you could use on a bat like Alonso and also acquire likely 2 or 3 pieces that help you in other areas for 2025 and beyond). 2) Sign him to an extension which makes him the face of the franchise for the next decade and you build around him. 3) Stand pat though go all-in for 2025 with Vladdy under control for one more year. Most unlikely scenario to happen since it's been a quiet offseason thus far and the amount of options in free agency is dwindling. 4) Stand pat, keeping the status quo and not improving the club significantly for a run in 2025. The worst IMO would be Option 4 and that could definitely be a possibility. Keeping Vladdy and not doing much else at improving the club for 2025 would be awful.
  17. I remember when he was with the White Sox and squared off against Roy Halladay I think in 2006 or 2007. One of the shortest MLB games haha. Loved how Buehrle was a quick worker and one of the most durable starters in the game. Sucks he retired early - probably could have pitched into his early 40's. What a memorable career!
  18. I was at that game. So much buzz and excitement for that Opening Day! Watching Doc battle Santana was awesome on Opening Day. Two of the best pitchers in baseball at the time. Went to the Game 2 the following day, and Josh Towers got rocked, which was the start of his 2-10 season with an 8.42 ERA haha.
  19. Blue Jays signed Juan Acevedo in 2003 after he was released by the Yankees and pitched for the Jays for about 1.5 months. When I was a kid, got an autographed ball from him which was cool.

    Given their odds and position in the standing, it's a good value bet right now. Especially if they add some pieces at the trade deadline.
  21. Merry Christmas everyone! Going to watch Die Hard tonight with a nice glass of scotch which is always a Christmas Eve tradition!

    Playoffs are different hockey man. They always choke in the Playoffs. Haven't got over that hump.
  23. I'll bring the camera equipment to take the shots. I have a tripod.
  24. Ross Atkins is the guy who goes to a steakhouse and likely just orders a salad. AA goes big and orders the Porterhouse and Shapiro plays its conservative with a filet mignon.

    Western Conference is just super tough though. They have to get through teams like Vegas, Edmonton, LA, Dallas, Colorado and Manny.
