    He did but the beauty of signing short term deals on modest AAVs is that it doesn’t really matter that much. What’s the scenario where Atkins reads the market perfectly? And how much better is the team than what we have now? Seems like that scenario involves bringing back Chapman and/or signing Pham. We could probably still do that stuff still if we dumped a couple of guys.

    A Barstool Sports blogger went 2 for 9 with a walk against Bauer lol
  3. Terminator
    Maybe we can still get a smoking cheap deal on Pham or something.
  4. Terminator
    Wow!

    You could explain away the other ones like Rosario or Anderson as the SS opportunities they got are a lot different than the ones they would have gotten in TO. But IKF over Urshela for 1.5M can’t really be defended.

    Can’t wait for a prankster to wear a thong under his pants this spring lol

    How the hell is Nike outsourcing the jersey production to Fanatics? It's got the Nike logo on it so you'd think they'd want to have some quality control over their product.

    Lol yeah. Looks like a 37 year old fat Dominican reliever. Former All-Star closer still pitching late innings for a bad team now. Needs a huge wad of chaw in his cheek to finish off the look.

    I like that he's not giving cookie cutter answers which 90% of players do. But he's not really the guy to say stuff like this when he's probably the most overpaid player in baseball.

    This also tells me that Espinal is worth about jack squat in a trade right now.
  11. Terminator
    Yeah the geographical diversity of the US is such a great feature. Can live in basically any climate you want.

    Damn that is cheap. We could have given him way more than that on a one year deal (even after signing IKF) and tell him he's playing 2B, 3B, OF and some SS. The Rays must have told him they will give him SS and that they've got some plans for him to have a monster year or something.

    You're describing a good player not a potential 26th man on a MILB deal lol

    One of the Sportsnet guys floated this Espinal/Horwitz/Prospect package in an article earlier this offseason. I'm not providing a link because I don't want to dig for it but I've mentioned it several times and I've mostly been ignored. Sorrow mentions it one time and he's getting a bunch of likes and pats on the back. BS

    He's not a good player but he's a specialist bench bat that can hit righties. Flawed players who do something really well and nothing else can still be decent bench players. In Vogelbach's case he can hit righties so he can pinch hit and start at DH against them once in a while.
  16. Terminator
    Yeah it would definitely take a trade but I could see a trade or two happening knowing that they can give Escobar a month to see if he can do something and if not he's getting let go and calling up Barger. He's definitely a long shot to make the team though.

    This article does a pretty good job of discussing the roster and why we need a trade to clear the logjam. It also makes it seem like Escobar has a better chance to make the team than we think. https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/surplus-of-infielders-creates-roster-complications-opportunity-for-blue-jays/
  18. Terminator
    Yeah not playing the field is obviously the big knock against him but our team is filled with enough positional flexibility to take on a bat only guy. Can't beat the MiLB deal either. Rowdy Tellez is a similar player and he got 3.2M guaranteed earlier this year.
  19. Terminator
    I agree with all of this but we may run into 40 man roster problems if Escobar and/or Vogelbach make the 25-man. The roster is screaming for a couple of trades right now. Some of the Sportsnet guys have alluded to an Espinal, Horwitz + prospect package that the Jays have been floating around. I'm sure Yimi Garcia and Richards are on the block as well. Moving some of those guys for prospects or consolidating them into a RHH OF would be good.

    Cannot wait for Danny Burgers to take Stroman deep like this at Yankee Stadium this April

    Joke org will hand out 700 million dollar contracts but when it comes to the bullpen they are cheapskates. The LA Dumpster Divers amiright?
  22. Terminator
    Horrible signing. Phillies should be ashamed to have to stoop to dumpster diving like this.
  23. Terminator
    So what are you saying? That Roster Resource is wrong and that Escobar is secretly our new starting 3B? That Justin Turner, Spencer Horwitz and all the other DH possibilities are actually going to back up Daniel Vogelbach who is set for 500 ABs?
  24. Terminator
    Oh for gods sakes do yourself a favor and read the depth chart: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/blue-jays Escobar is stuffed down in AAA along with plenty of interesting infield options like Orelvis, Barger, Parmesani, Leo Gimenez and Ernie Clement. Vogelbach is listed on the bench as a pinch hitter/backup DH but Horwitz is right there with him. Both are on minor league deals so this is nothing to fret about. I actually think these are relatively impressive minor league signings. Way better than what you normally get and I think the new Jays facilities helped with that.

    Currently talking myself into a Dan Vogelbach 20 homer bench bat season and this thread is helping if you want to join
