He's old for the level and he's also not very effective. He's an okay prospect but he's barely a better one than Alex De Jesus. Both might be 40 FVs. Mitch White probably does suck but he looks ok this year as a 1 to 2 inning reliever. I'm not very hopeful he becomes anything better than that but he's already got .7 WAR and counting for the Jays so far in limited action. There's no guarantee Frasso out WARs him.

Merrifield was nails after the trade last year. 119 wRC+ and .8 WAR in 44 games. As for the postseason, yeah he was 1 for 5 with a HBP but the whole thing went to hell in a hurry as soon as he left the game.

All-Star Whit Merrifield

DeJesus reestablishing himself as a 40 FV prospect and Mitch White looking like a serviceable reliever and that trade isn't looking so bad anymore after it looked like a huge L just a month ago. White looked like he was cooked as he dealt with injuries to start the year but the Jays decision to turn him into a reliever looks like a smart one. They cranked up his slider usage which he is throwing a lot harder and basically ditched everything but his fastball. That will get him through the year and he can try starting again next year though he'll probably just be a long reliever moving forward.

Yep, posters here have labeled them serious contenders now and moving forward. No one here, not even their biggest detractors like me, will disagree with that. People have been much much higher on them than merely saying they aren't pushovers.
-
24 year old pitcher with an ERA of 4.41 across his two seasons in AA. Averages about 3 innings per start. Lol
-
Cannot believe that BA ranked Frasso #68 or whatever it was in their midseason update after 25 innings of good AA ball as a 24 year old. He’s a solid prospect but that’s way too high on him.
-
Wow!
-
Agree but they could finish last…they are about as good as the Red Sox.
-
A little rut? Lol they have the 8th best RD in the American League. The Mariners have a better one than them and they are .500.
-
Their run differential is only +13 now. They've lost 6 of 7 and despite how garbage we've been playing we are only 4 games back of them. I know you Orioles fanboys think these prospect callups are going to propel them into being "serious contenders" but they don't have enough of them to float a rotation that garbage. Tried telling you friendo.

Reminds me of when my buddy’s sister joined our fantasy football league because we had a guy dropout last minute. She actually won the league by taking players based on who had the cutest picture. Embarrassing.
-
That crazy broad actually did it. She traded for an entire team’s worth of slap hitting 2B and she’s got a contender on her hands. Amazing.
-
You guys are soft. I’m glad. Jays odds of backing in to the WC3 just increased.

Tatis not getting in had to do with getting busted for roids. Very frowned upon by players and coaches these days. -

Yeah I deleted Espinal bc he was a bad example. He wasn't really having a break out year anyway. But the game should highlight the biggest stars in baseball IMO. Vlad is 10th in WAR among AL 1B lol. But I'd still put him in over Ryan Noda (5th) or Brandon Drury (3rd) or Nate Lowe (2nd). Who wants to see turds like that play? Boring. Especially if Vlad being on the AS team means he'll participate in the HR derby. That is must watch TV. -

The two are often different though. Nothing worse than some no namer with a big first half getting into the All-Star game. I'd rather see a name brand player like Vlad back his way in than a guy like that. -

Just took a quick dive through Roster Resource and there are very few sellers out there. And among the obvious sellers, they really don't have s*** to trade away in the way of right handed bench bats. Pittsburgh could look to move Connor Joe or Rich Hill or something.
-
Fair point, I guess it would depend on how Manoah looks over the rest of the month. We probably end up going small. Bench bat and a reliever? Atkins probably wants some controllable pieces.
-
I bet John Olerud could have done it. He was probably the greatest college baseball player of all time and his stats as both a hitter and pitcher were insane. In his sophomore season he hit something like .464 with an .876 SLG and was 15-0 on the mound with a 2.64 ERA. He suffered a brain aneurysm shortly after that season but came back and put up good numbers in his junior year and completely skipped the minors after the Jays drafted him. No way the Jays, especially Cito Gaston, would let him try doing both.
-
He'd be a good target for sure.
-
Rangers got Alrodis Chapman for Cole Ragans and Roni Cabrera. Seems like a pretty good deal for the Rangers.
-
Who should the Jays look to add? The lineup is riddled with underperformers and defensive studs who aren't easy to improve on. Maybe a right handed bat to mix in with Varsho, KK or Belt on any given day would be a good target. The rotation could use a starter. If Manoah shows us something prior to the ASB we probably don't need a run of the mill #5. A bullpen addition could be an easy way to add, but with Ryu and Green returning they might be our big additions there.
-
Another thing to note is that Manoah was having a tough time keeping base runners in check prior to being sent down. The Sea Dogs were aggressive today and attempted 6 steals on Manoah but two of them were thrown out. They attempted another 3 steals after Manoah left and all three of them were successful. So seems like he did at least somewhat of a good job with that too.
