General 2019 Blue Jays Discussion Thread
Terminator replied to Bobthe4th's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I read that he added a leg kick to his swing. No idea if that's helped his improved results or anything but it wouldn't kill to give him a shot. -
Oh geezus not the control v command thing again....

This is so absurd. I can't believe we've gotten to this point. https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/cubs-fan-racist-gesture-tv-doug-glanville/

Thank you! Hernandez could be solid for a plug and play type as well.
-
These games are getting brutal to watch. Thornton labors through a 30 pitch inning and Kyle Gibson strikes out the side in the bottom half...
-
Would like to see them DH him once in a while instead of straight rest days.
-
This is the worst lineup I think I've ever seen. It look like an independent league lineup.

Fantasy baseball is nuts in an age where players can make adjustments and improve greatly at any given point in their career. What should we make of Danny Santana? I need a 2B in a 14 team league and Cesar Hernandez, Odor (who I just dropped, partially because he is expensive to keep), Danny Santana and Dozier are on the waiver wire. Am I nuts for considering Santana? Also plays OF which is a plus and I need steals. Looking at his launch angle and stuff he seems to have made some sort of adjustment but how long does that stuff take to stabilize?
-
I'm hoping he can shitball his way to a sub 4 ERA without his fingers falling off so we can trade him.

Smith Jr is a limited player for sure but Steamer is actually starting to come around on the guy. Steamer thinks he's a 103 wRC+ player. Of Teoscar, McKinney and DSJ, looks like DSJ might be the best player. Kind of an interesting look into where Shatkins' approach may have failed them in one instance. Dumping the limited tools guy with a better plate approach and a lower floor over the guys with better exit velocity and a higher ceiling.
-
I would love to put Teoscar and McKinney into a catapult, roll it up to the border, and fire it into Buffalo.
-
Nice play by Drury. Our OF sucks ass so he's getting time out there but it's a waste because his best asset is INF defense at 2B or 3B. Then his bat plays up there as well.
-
Ask him about the bunting you cowards
-
Funny thing is Aaron thinks he's good enough to talk s*** on his teammates when they make an error.
-
I'm tired of creating cool threads and never getting any likes. Meanwhile, people who merely comment in my threads are getting loads of likes. This poll is the best thread we've had this year and I get 0 likes. It's ******** and it makes me think you all are xenophobes.
-
Brito, Hanson and a whole bunch of other zeros are going to combine for hundreds of ABs. There's no reason, other than saving a giant corporation like Rogers a few bucks. I'll give them this year, we kind of have to at this point. But there's no reason to suck so bad again next year. Especially if the market is so garbage again.
-
f*** that. We could have done it this year. Keep Pillar, bring in a better SP than dumpster diving for Richard and bring in a better late inning reliever than Bud Norris. That replaces like 3 negative WAR or so with like 4 to 5 positive WAR. We probably get close to like 78-80 wins instead of 70.
-
I'll give them this year but there's no reason to have to go through this again. See what slop among the Teoscars and Gurriel's of the team sticks, at this point it doesn't look like much is going to, and then plug the holes accordingly next year with reasonable FA deals.
-
Yeah for sure. Plus, the market was so down there were definitely deals to be had. A better SP instead of Richard, another late inning reliever, and an OF would have done wonders for the team instead of cheaping out on all three positions. As for the vets we currently have that you mentioned in your previous post: I'd try like hell to extend Stroman and Giles on team friendly deals right now. Our rotation and bullpen suck and we don't have a ton in the pipeline. Plus, both guys are young enough that a 3 to 4 year extension should lock them up for their prime years and give us the chance to be decent while the Vlad, Bo, Jansen, Biggio, Pearson core enters into their prime. Smoak I could go either way. He's solid but he's entering his decline years and guys like him are pretty cheap in FA. That said, he probably doesn't net much in a trade anyway. He'd probably sign a 1 or 2 year extension for peanuts again after seeing this market.
-
I hope they are sniffing it next year.
-
Well said! Slightly surprised to see your timeline placed this soon but I'm in agreement. One year of scorched earth (which is this year), .500 next year, and then legit good in 2021.
-
I voted 2021. They don't have to make the playoffs but I want to see a solid team on the field. That gives them two more trade deadlines and two more offseasons to simply field a solid team. I think that's pretty fair.
-
Probably going to finish 4th for the 3rd year in a row after the WC appearance in '16. Cleared pretty much all the of the payroll off the books but for the Grichuk extension. Cultivated a consensus Top 3 Farm system but one that is highlighted by a generational talent that they inherited from the previous regime. How long of a leash do you give Shatkins? If we aren't contending by which year, when would you pull the plug?
