    JPR built up some solid BPs during his tenure here.

    Would have been a really nice fit here in Toronto. He would have been a nice arm to slot in behind Gausman.

    Watch Ross Atkins make a huge signing or trade that day haha.
  7. jaysblue
    Damn, wonder what the price was. Huge upside arm. I like Luzardo a lot, but I know he doesn't fit this front offices MO when it comes to starting pitchers.

    Yeah geez they were already talking with the Guardians. I wonder if they asked about Naylor as well. Would have been the opportune time. Like I don't mind the Gimenez trade, but this team needs some pop in the lineup and it has been an issue for the last two years. You either have to pay a guy like Teo or Santander or you try to save some money by acquiring a bat with pop via trade, like Naylor or Roberts. Regardless, less options become available as we move deeper into the offseason. Atkins better start moving.
  9. jaysblue
    He was a solid LOOGY in 2005.
  10. jaysblue
    Welcome Brock!
  11. jaysblue
    Yeah they should have just kept Naylor for a couple more million. Downgrade for saving maybe like 1-2M. Barf indeed.
  12. jaysblue
    Carlos Santana back with the Guardians. 1 year/$12M contract.
  13. jaysblue
    Never once mentioned his contract. I just replied to a post saying that out of all the washed up vets that Yankees have gone through, he still has been somewhat productive. Contract aside, Jays could use a bat like Stanton in their lineup. He would be their second best power hitter lol.
  14. jaysblue
    Atkins loves coming in second eh!
  15. jaysblue
    Yeah I doubt he even cracks a 50 career WAR when all is said and done.
  16. jaysblue
    Yeah he could be very well cooked. Last two years he's been in a steady decline and is 37. Prime Goldy was such an awesome player.
  17. jaysblue
    He'll probably get to 500 career HR's with them as long as he gets around 450 AB's per season. 600 looks tough but it's within reach if plays until he's 40-41.
  18. jaysblue
    Ah no risk for them really. They don't need Goldy to be one of their main bats in the lineup. If he bounces back somewhat and gives them 2-3 WAR with similar offensive numbers like in 2023 with a 122 wRC+, that's plenty. Only a one-year deal worth $12.5M so if he doesn't pan out, he's off the books in 2026.
  19. jaysblue
    Stanton at least when healthy has still been productive for them. He would have been second in HR's on the Jays team this year with 27. Vladdy was the only Jays player who hit above 20 HR's last season lol.
  20. jaysblue
    Definitely would be a nice lineup which I think would be good enough to contend and to go on a deep Postseason run. Hopefully Atkins could swing some magic.
  21. jaysblue
    Carlos Santana actually was pretty solid last season. I was shocked.
  22. jaysblue
    Nothing new for Atkins if that's the case!
  23. jaysblue
    Obviously the Jays need to aim higher lol. Have no issue with them spending money if they bring in Teo or Santander. They haven't yet however. But if money was tight, I suggested that Kepler wouldn't have been a bad option. Yes Kepler is definitely more riskier, but that's why you're getting him at $10M on a one year deal versus Teo who likely gets a 3-4 year deal around $60-70M or even more lol. Phillies already have an excellent lineup in place, so they definitely can afford to roll the dice on a player like Kepler.
  24. jaysblue
    Suggested Kepler as an option a couple months ago if the Jays wanted to go the cheap route in left field. Was met with some backlash when suggesting his name. He posted 2.8 WAR and hit 24 HR's in 2023. As long as he's healthy, he should be good for 2-3 WAR. I think he'll fit in nicely in Philly.
  25. jaysblue
    When you suggest other FA names, Jays don't have the money to sign them. Though when you suggest names that could come cheap and who you might get some value out of, they suck and the Jays shouldn't sign them. So then who do the Jays sign? Sure, I want the Jays to sign a better arm than Griffin Canning lol, but if payroll is tight and they need to spend money in other areas such as the lineup or bullpen, leaves very little for the rotation. If someone in the Jays rotation gets injured, who is next in line? Depth is important as well. If Canning didn't pan out, you either DFA him after 5 or 6 starts or move him to the pen. Who knows, maybe out of the pen he becomes the next Luke Weaver.
