  1. Prefer the Guardians but will take anyone over the Yankees.
  2. I would strongly prefer John Gibbons tbh
  3. The entire season hinges on that meatball staying healthy
  4. I would be down for something like that. Would depend on what our bullpen is looking like. If Zach Pop is penciled into the 7th inning role then I say spend the money on the pen. If we are feeling good about the pen then we could bring in a decent vet. I think the pen is probably going to be looking a little rough though with so many holes to fill. I agree the catching depth needs addressed so I wouldn't mind dumpster diving even lower than the guys you suggest. Could serial masturbator Reese McGuire be had for a million bucks? Then Hineyman becomes the third C in Buffalo? Something like that might be a good way to split the difference.
  5. I think something like that gets it done if the Jays are willing to offer it. I think they ultimately land on something a little bit lower. But regardless of the exact number, how the hell does he turn an offer like that down? He'd have to be hellbent on going to free agency but that doesn't seem like the case; he's been practically begging for an extension.
  6. Smart. I'd take a cheap backup that fell into our laps some time in February. But even then, the 3-5 mil spent on a decent backup could just be used to sign a decent middle reliever and we need a half dozen of those. And it's a small sample size, but there is evidence that Heineman is good defensively.
  7. Hell no to the Yankees in the World Series. If ISIS had a baseball team I'd be cheering for them over the Yanks. We should all be rooting for the Royals as disgusting as that might feel. The subsequent meltdown will be glorious.
  8. I believe it but at the same time you have Justin Turner and others saying it's a top-notch organization. It's probably just one of those things where the losing creates the discontent, and it isn't the discontent that is creating the losing. Win enough games to make the playoffs and this kind of stuff probably goes away.
  9. Once again I see Springer being discussed without talk of how unlucky he has been. If his wOBA was in line with, or even better than, his xwOBA then this would be an entirely different conversation.
  10. Enough about Jurickson Profar...who wants to help me spread rumors on twitter that Aaron Judge is about to get swept up in the Diddy freak offs scandal?
  11. Diamondbacks miss the playoffs Orioles fail to win a playoff game again AA and the Braves get swept Hopefully the Yankees are next
  12. You absolutely love to see it Their fanboys will be scrambling for new arguments after they fail to win a playoff game yet again
  13. https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/free-agent-tracker
  14. Yeah there are a shitload of interesting relievers this year. Thank god because we need about 5 new ones.
  15. He's such a weird player. Former top prospect who has had a middling career where he alternates between decent years and bad ones before breaking out at age 31. His breakout seems hard to believe but it also seems pretty real as he added more Max EV and now hits the ball hard. I would want to know if he had some sort of true talent change and what lead to it. He's also on the wrong side of 30 so can he sustain it? If so you are getting a damn good hitter on a reasonable contract.
  16. Wow, those K numbers are interesting. 6 out of the last 9 were Top 5 in K rate. And only one below average K rate team has won the WS.
  17. MLB Trade Rumors has their projected arb values out https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/10/projected-arbitration-salaries-for-2025.html Here are the Jays: Based on those numbers I'd dump Cabrera, Pop and Tate and keep everyone else.
  18. Doesn't seem like a great crop of bats...
  19. Wow, I got called the r-word! Believe it or not I don't read every friggin' post of yours and I didn't see that one where you further explained to Olerud what you meant by "closest comparable" which made no sense to me. If you would have just explained like you did with Olerud I would have gotten it. Instead, you did that stupid internet tough guy thing where you use snappy one-liners in order to get likes from your butt buddy jaysblue. So if you'll excuse me, SIR, I finally have a better understanding of what you are saying now. If anyone needs me I'll be shitposting on Orioles Hangout while eating dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets with my r-word helmet firmly strapped on to my partially functional head. GOOD NIGHT.
  20. Baseball America MLB Free Agency: Ranking The Top 50 Position Players Available For 2025 https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/mlb-free-agency-ranking-the-top-50-position-players-available-for-2025/ Spanky can you help?
  21. Yeah probably but I think that's just catching for you. They are probably constantly battling general fatigue and always getting dinged up. If enough of those dings happen in any given season you are basically always playing at ~90% and it's messing with your swing.
  22. I think Soto gets close to 500 and Vlad gets about 300. I'll be interested to see the Fangraphs Free Agency article. They usually do a pretty good job on guessing the contracts. I could be way off here.
