This guy wouldn't be bad. Zips projects him to have a 117 wRC+ and I don't imagine that he'll break the bank. But as a 1B/3B he's not a great fit positionally unless Bo doesn't return. -
In the past 10 seasons the Colorado Rockies have more playoff wins than the Baltimore Orioles
-
Ward’s arb projection is nearly 14 million. Puzzling acquisition to say the least. Maybe an Orioles fanboy (zero playoff wins btw) could explain this trade for me? Or do you guys even exist anymore?

Orioles Hangout is not taking this trade very well lmao

Makes sense for all four to take the 22 mil IMO. Grisham – I am curious what it signals for the Yankees. In some ways I think it makes Tucker a more viable option for them instead of falling back on Belli. Or do they just keep Dominguez? Woodruff – Only 120 innings over three years and the velocity dip last year meant he probably wasn't getting much more than this. A rebound season could set him up for a solid multi year deal. Imanaga – Good call for him. The Cubs are pretty cheap, so this eats into their offseason budget. Torres – The market is cold on him, so locking in 22 mil was smart. The Tigers are also cheap, and with one shaky defensive middle infielder already, it is hard to see them chasing Bo despite some speculation. Michael King and Zac Gallen aren't that much better than these 4 but rejected it. Will be interesting to see how they do.

I wonder what Grisham returning to the Yanks means for them. On one hand, it does tie up more of their payroll. On the other hand, I thought that Bellinger was probably a better fit for them than Tucker because Belli can play CF. Now that Grisham is in the fold for another year, they could just play him in CF for one more year and turn to Tucker to play a corner spot. Or they could just forget both Tucker and Belli and go with Dominguez in LF.

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2025)
Terminator replied to Ryu In My House's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
If Brownie Jr. is going to make the big leagues then dear old dad is going to have to step up his game. Time to empty out that retirement account and start making some risky calls and puts. Junior's MLB career is on the line. -
Another Closing Option for the Blue Jays To Consider
Terminator replied to Jim Scott's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
The inverse is also true. Why give the Rays something when you can turn around and sign him (or a comparable talent) in FA for similar terms to what his option would have been? That way you won't get tarred and feathered when the Rays take an 18 year old lotto ticket off your hands who turns into a 3 WAR player -
Anytime Jim disagrees you know you are on the right track👍
-
I'm going to get tarred and feathered for this, BUT if Bo REALLY wants to stay at SS and it makes the difference in signing here or not I'd tell him he can have SS for the upcoming season but nothing is guaranteed beyond that. You guys are going to hate this, but in theory, whatever is to be gained by Bo moving from SS (poor defense) to 2B (solid) is probably negated by whatever is lost from Gimenez moving from 2B (god-like) to SS (above average). In other words, it's kind of a zero sum game and probably doesn't matter that much.

Dumpster Divin'

I didn't realize how good and consistent Iglesias has been throughout his career. He's been a reliever for 10 years now and has put up at least 1 WAR with a FIP lower than 3.30 in every single year except way back in 2018 (4.23 FIP that year but a 2.38 ERA). You could probably get him on a one year deal and I'd be down for that.
-
You love to see your division rival lock up a 26-man roster spot on a 5.00 FIP pitcher this early in free agency
-
If someone gives Tucker a megacontract it will be because they convinced themselves that (1) he would have been an ~8 WAR player the past two years until those seasons were derailed by injury, (2) those injuries were flukes and he's likely to be healthy moving forward, and (3) 1 and 2 mean he's more like a 6 WAR player moving forward not a 4 WAR player. I don't even think it's that far fetched to think all of the above, but gambling that a player's health will improve as he gets older is a very dangerous game. For that reason, it's better to not stray too far away from the projections.

Wow!

Let's make the Mets earn it by offering him 4/80.
-
I highly doubt that the Mets let Diaz walk. Maybe they wouldn't match a 5 year offer but that would be outrageous for us to give him that.
-
We went with a 5 man bench (14 position players and 12 pitchers) in the World Series so I don't think we were necessarily carrying extra pitchers.
-
Myles Straw is like 3x World Series champ Terrance Gore on steroids. Regular season = useful 5th OF (Gore wasn't good enough to do this) Playoffs = should only be pinch running and a defensive replacement (the Gore role) I will say, however, that his 91 wRC+ season with the stick this year was a nice development for him. It wasn't built on luck or anything either, his xStats match. Hopefully he can keep that going. Clase has some tools but his defense actually sucks. Now that he's out of options I think we just gotta cut him loose. Could maybe get a lottery ticket from a bad team from him at best.

Spotrac says his agent is ISE
-
FA is so weak next year. Varsho might be the top position player. If I'm him it would be awfully tempting to play the year out. He's going to get 10M in his final year of arb which is a nice security blanket if everything goes to hell for him. But if he stays healthy it seems like 30 homers and a gold glove are both attainable and if he did that he'd get PAID.

It is ridiculous that the small group of Toronto writers who get to vote on this stuff are contrarian trolls who hate the Jays and churn out slanted articles for hate clicks. We need a total and complete shutdown of her and Steve Simmons' media credentials and voting privileges until we can figure out what the hell is going on.
