  1. It could be Lukes but I’m not sure he brings anything to the table that Tilapia doesn’t unless he provides legit center field defense. Biggio can also play some outfield too so Lukes may not be necessary. It could be an infielder like Katoh.
  2. He quit before he was fired. Dude couldn’t even log one AB with the Rockies last year. He could make a major league roster but he’s not doing any better that.
  3. Greg Bird is so trash that he he packed his bags because he doesn’t think he can beat out Zack Collins for ABs. We won’t miss him.
  4. Making the a big league team in itself is probably a good enough role for someone who has been out of the bigs in recent years. Once we traded for Collins there was no need for another lefty DH.
  5. How many left handed DHs do we need on the bench? Only room for one of them IMO. Collins could have been optioned but the 40 man would have been full if we kept Bird and the other options for the final bench spot among the 40 man roster were crap. Now with Collins on the team we still have one spot left to add a guy like Katoh or Lukes to both the 40 man and and big league roster.
  6. Writing was on the wall when they traded for Collins. Didn’t need them both and Collins was already on the 40 man and Bird wasn’t. Now they can use that final 40-man spot on someone like Katoh or Lukes.
  7. Bird was just cut so I think Collins will make the team. He’s like a combination of what Reese McGuire (3rd C) and Greg Bird (lefty bat) were going to bring to the table and that will free up another spot for someone who can play the field like Gatoh or Lukes.
  8. Collins has an option? That’s huge for the 3rd catcher
  9. I prefer it here on the main board.
  10. Seems like he won't make the team which is probably ok. He can get ready in AAA and come up to fill the spot for our first injury.
  11. Is there any way to look up pitcher velocity for spring training games? Was trying to see how hard Patrick Corbin was throwing. He's had a good spring.
  12. Everyone is s***ing on Cito but 30 years ago I bet at least 95% of managers were doing the same crap he did. I'm sure he was a fine manager for the era.
  13. I think he's a solid backup C but he needs to go. Having a 3rd C on the roster negates the flexibility that Kirk provides as a capable DH and backup C. Pair Kirk's flexibility with Biggio and Espinal's and we could even run a 3-man bench for large stretches, especially if we added Otto Lopez.
  14. Does Clase's deal buyout any free agent years? Doesn't seem like it does.
  15. I have a strong feeling that Montoyo is going to screw up the lineup on a consistent basis by subbing Kirk out too often. Steamer projects Kirk to be our 2nd best hitter this year with a 129 wRC+. This guy could be special and he really needs to be in the lineup everyday either as the DH or as the backup C. Instead, I have a feeling that we'll see Greg Bird and Reese McGuire in the lineup way too often.
  16. My guess is we are going to go with a normal sized bench and use the early season extra roster spots on relievers.
  17. Back-to-back World Series wins say otherwise.
  18. Remember in 2008 when old ass Cito Gaston took over for Gibbons? Cito went 51-37 after the team started 35-39. Cito could manage with the best of them. What a legend. Definitely deserving of the Jays Mt. Rushmore.
  19. The thing that mitigates Alomar only being with the team for 5 years is that he bounced around so much that the Jays ended up becoming his main team. He's the only guy in the HoF with a Jays cap and was a key cog in back-to-back WS titles. And let's face it, it's not like he's facing a ton of competition.
  20. This is true. The classic scenario where if he's mediocre he's gone but if he's good they'll keep him.
  21. Pompey in Kauffman Stadium does not elicit fond memories.
  22. My team is in contention so I think I need to hang on to Yu and Eovaldi. At this point, it seems like Pearson might need to hit a little bit higher on his probability chart than we thought to even be as good as either Yu or Eovaldi.
  23. I agree. I'd suspend him for the next 2 spring training games followed by a club-friendly 2 year extension. That'll teach him.
  24. 14 team dynasty with a $300 salary cap. I was offered Nate Pearson, John Means and a 2nd for Yu Darvish and Eovaldi. Darvish and Eovaldi are about 20 bucks more expensive than Pearson and Means. I have no idea what to think of Pearson at this point.
  25. Walker getting a DUI is a good thing for the team. They can give him a slap on the wrist to satisfy the media a little bit and it will effectively take him out of the running for any other managerial jobs. After the year we can sign the best pitching coach in baseball to a cheap extension. W
