  1. I think Walker did sign a major league deal, but he does have an option still. So he can still be optioned to MiLB. Pretty sure anyway.
  2. Spring stats don't mean much but if they did then you'd be pretty thrilled as most of the team is raking. And if those two struggle they won't "be in the middle or top of our lineup" for long. Gimenez will stay in and hit 9th and Springer will become a platoon bat.
  3. https://www.mlb.com/news/blue-jays-2025-opening-day-roster Keegan Matheson's Opening Day Roster predictions C: Kirk, Hiney-man 1B: Vlad 2B: Gimenez, Wagner SS: Bo 3B: Clement, Barger LF: Schneider, Loperfido CF: Varsho RF: Taters, Springer SP: Gausman, Berrios, Bassitt, Scherzer, Francis RP: Hoffman, Yimi, Chad Green, Yarbrough, Little, Sandlin, Yariel, Pop
  4. Our roster is built for the Grapefruit League as AAA and AA are littered with guys that project to be okay big league hitters. We have something close to 20 guys who project close to 100 wRC+.
  5. So we've got the following wave of Buffalo Boys who are ready to crash upon the beaches of Toronto: Wagner Roden Schneider Barger Clement Jimenez Loperfido Behind that is a SECOND wave of guys that need a couple months in the minors before they reach shore: Orelvis Clase Schreck McAdoo Kasevich We also have a sneaker wave that could strike at any moment. These are older guys with zero pedigree but they could still unexpectedly strike shore when you least expect it (like Clement): Lukes Stefanic Berroa Straw And finally, behind all of that we have a TIDAL WAVE of a player coming and when he hits TO the World Series will be easy to make: Nimmala
  6. https://x.com/jonbecker_/status/1898545908049985774 I apologize for spreading fake news earlier. Apparently Cole never opted out. He just threatened to do so and the Yanks called his bluff so he never actually did opt out.
  7. George Springer might want to get off to a hot start this year if he wants to keep his job Barger, Roden, Schneider, Lukes and even Berroa and Straw are all hitting the s*** out of the ball this spring
  8. https://x.com/BlueJays/status/1899180188157596076 Barger absolutely pummeled this ball. Wasn't that bad of a pitch either. 95 mph fastball down and in.
  9. JDM isn't an upgrade though. If we signed him he'd project to be our 16th best hitter, just ahead of Leo Jimenez and Orelvis Martinez.
  10. He'll be in the lineup pretty early on I bet. If it's not Opening Day then by late April. If he's as good as we think then we might as well take the extra year of control. Wagner is good too though and he can hold down the DH spot until then. When Roden comes up it will pinch Wagner's playing time a bit but they can figure it out. Hopefully he can play a little 3B to get his bat in there more often.
  11. JD Martinez would be a decent fit for some teams but probably not ours. Wagner and Roden look like better options.
  12. Yeah 1-3 are good and so is 7-9 (grading on a curve) but the middle of the lineup is pretty weak on paper. But we do have a pretty deep lineup that should hold up okay even with some injuries to anyone other than Vlad. 7-9 is solid (especially when Varsho is back over Loperfido), the bench has some guys that can hit, and so does AAA. So while the heart of the order could use another bat, the depth helps mitigate that, and there’s a chance the team already has the answer if one or two of the 14 options for spots 4-9 hit their 75th percentile projections.
  13. Wagner has been playing a lot of 3B. How has he looked?
  14. Opening day lineup if Varsho isn't ready?
  15. Major League deal for Tate but he does have an option and Roster Resource has him starting out in the minors
  16. Dumbass Yankees had a gift fall right into their lap when Cole opted out this offseason. But they were too stupid to realize it.
  17. I forgot that we had Napoli for a few days. After we traded him he hit .320/.414/.631 in 2011.
  18. Damn they gave Kittredge a one year, 10 million dollar deal too
  19. Wagner leading off and playing 3rd is interesting
  20. Mets beat writer is throwing tons of cold water on them being players for Vlad in free agency https://sny.tv/articles/variables-vladimir-guerrero-jr-contract-blue-jays-mets
  21. Yeah they were pretty hopeful they could re-sign him but they didn't know for sure that they couldn't until 2 weeks ago. That's not a great time to trade him. Plus, the team wants to compete and they probably feel they have a strong chance to re-sign him in FA. Baseball's TV deals are in the toilet right now with ESPN dropping them and the regional networks all dying. There aren't that many teams that can even afford to give out a $400 million dollar contract right now and there is even fewer that will do it for a 1B/DH. The Jays are well positioned to bring him back and I'd probably consider them the favorites.
  22. He said he came down on the years to 14 lmao What’d he open with? 20?
  23. Grayson Rodriguez's "triceps soreness"
  24. Ha, both Grayson and the team tried hand-waving his velo dip by saying he wasn't trying. Turns out he's hurt after all. O's might want to wait on moving those fences in.
