Brewers and A's

Mookie betts in 2021 and the increase in WAR will be a lot! Dare to dream.

What are you going to be more disappointed about, not getting cole, or not making a real effort to sign him?

Is anybody out there........

couple inches foul...

who needs a sample size when your ego is the size of Texas. Alford is clearly bad at baseball. Alford makes some swing changes and has some pretty decent success at AAA in 250+ plate appearances and you dismiss this as being an insignificant sample size and then you reference 52 plate appearances spread out over 3 years in spot duty. What a hypocrite.

Kevin Pillar has put up 12 wins with a career 87 wRC+. If Alford put up a 95 wRC+ he'd be a really nice player. We just have a log jam of guys in the outfield who are good enough to play in the MLB even if they are fringe regulars 4th outfielders. I feel like a couple of our guys will be playing for KC or Baltimore next year.

echo

remind me again why gurriel is playing left field tonight? It seems kind of reckless.

what the f*** was that...that ball wasn't even close to being a strike

I'm not wishing injury on anyone. It was a joke. Fisher f***ing blows though. Alford isn't going to be a blue jays come spring training. I've said it numerous times.

His last at bat was 4 days ago and you bring him in the game mid way through to face a flame thrower. That's hardly a recipe for success. Alford's had 10 Abs this September. Fisher's struck out 9 of his 21 plate appearances this September. He probably would have struck out too.

Scherzers contract seemed like an overpay and it’s worked out pretty good. Never getting the player isn’t a great recipe either and sometimes things work out. If cole’s market is 7 210 and no one is willing to go 8 240 and that would get cole to sign I would do that deal in a heartbeat.

I wonder if we’ll get lucky enough to have fisher miss time due to injury

The Jays have 30 mil in payroll committed next year. Those 2 cost 65. You don't stop spending if you have those 2. You would need to commit to 160 170 in payroll. You literal could build a contender through free agency next year if you got those 2 and you wouldn't have to trade off all your prospect capital. The problem is I don't see any scenario in which Cole isn't a Yankee next year and the odds of getting Rendon are a long shot. The Yankees have money to spend, the sox have money to spend, the dodgers and cubs always seem to have money. The Marlins have money to spend in theory. Who else has money to spend? If the Jays have a shot at either Rendon or Cole they should overpay, extend the extra year and do whatever it takes. There just aren't many truly elite free agents that come available. Outside of that there's plenty of pitching you can add, but you're probably looking for value. The odds of contending in 2020 are extremely long, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't add pieces that can help you in 2021 or 2022.

That was awesome....f*** you Keith Law

Wowsa!!!!!!!!!!!!

we want a triple!

why is Davis still getting at bats

we got a good one for you today folks

why is smoak playing so much? He isn't even going to be with the team next year.

ok let's life teoscar for a pinch hitter.

wasted it in the first...didn't have one

Buck actually explained it great for once. He clearly thought there was only 1 out.

ok how does an ump call a pitch right in the middle of the plate a ball. I think that was the worst call I've seen all year.
