    Day off tomorrow too so hopefully he's back Friday with a strict no splits and no hustling rule in place

    Correct. He needs to stop hustling on the bases too. Vlad should never hustle.

    Apparently Barger did fail some test in 2019. But from what I've seen it appears to be for for amphetamines not steroids. Still just a wild thing to say about a player not even involved in the scuffle.

    They rode Grant Holmes pretty hard on the RP-SP conversion too.

    Uh oh it looks like I struck a nerve with the AA Fanboys on this one! Sure, 79 wins might be too low but beating that total by a few games isn't going to do them any good when the high spending Mets and Phillies are projecting for far more. In other words, this was supposed to be a potential dynasty that rivaled the Dodgers. 2 years and zero playoff wins later and we are talking about them being a decent bet to finish over .500 because AA teams are always paper thin. Sad!

    The Jays have a good opportunity to essentially put the division away with these next three series: @ Pirates @ Miami (cooled off considerably) vs. Twins Meanwhile, the Yankees and Red Sox have a 4 game series coming up.

    I collected a ton during the junk wax era when I was a kid and all of that stuff is worth almost nothing. The resurgence has definitely peaked my interest but I still plan on mostly staying away. It's become far more expensive and there's no way it pays off. I'd be better off doing more sports gambling. That said, I still might whet my appetite by picking up a rookie card of Vlad Jr. and Kirk because of the extensions and can display them on the shelf in my office. Maybe throw in a Halladay and Stieb rookie too.

    https://blogs.fangraphs.com/is-all-hope-lost-for-the-atlanta-braves/ The gist of the article is that the Braves only project for 79 wins next season and will need to spend big in FA next year to right the ship. But they haven't spent big in FA in quite some time. Meanwhile, the Ross Atkins' led Blue Jays have the best record in the American League. Dumping that chubby idiot AA was the best move Shapiro has made.

    He should be an upgrade over the below replacement level stuff they've been running out there But they are a joke for dumpster diving instead of making actual trades

    Red Sox dumpster diving for Nats castoffs after making minimal moves at the deadline

    SerAnthony's splits are crazy. Utterly dominates righties and sucks against lefties because of his Sweeper. Jays aren't tinkering with his pitch mix against RHB too much but against LHB they are really having him throw his splitter a lot more and are dialing back his 4-Seamer BIG TIME. That would make sense based on the numbers against each pitch.
  17. Terminator
    Yeah I didn't like him letting Max start the 8th either because of the long ball issues.

    I never joined that slanderous witch hunt. Have a look for yourself: https://jayscentre.com/forums/topic/95733-vlad-jr-to-indy-ball/ Most of my posts in that thread were about my love for Swiss Chalet or protecting the board from a mentally ill poster by putting on my badge and Sherriff-ing him off into the sunset. When I did discuss Vlad, it was to defend him except one time when I needled some AA fanboys who were trashing the idea of extending Vlad while at the same time longing for the return of AA, a GM who never met a young player he didn't want to extend.

    The Vladdy haters are awfully quiet these days...

    Am I good or what?

    https://blogs.fangraphs.com/vladimir-guerrero-jr-is-getting-out-of-the-swing-of-things/ Article on Vlad swinging less than ever. He's having a big second half. If the team was hellbent on resigning him no matter what and the options were giving him the 500 mil or playing it out in FA, it was probably wise to extend him.

    Good job by Gausman to limit that home run to a solo shot
  23. Terminator
    Keys to victory: Jays won't be striking out so they need to have good aim on their line drives & hard ground balls Gausman needs to make sure that the Cubs' home runs are solo shots
  24. Terminator
    Nice, well that extra IFA money from the Straw deal is use it or lose it so I wouldn't be surprised if this is a little bit of an overpay in order to entice him to come to the US early instead of entering the Korean draft. But if he's 6'5'' and throwing 95 at 18 years old he seems like a good gamble.

    anybody got a scouting report on this guy?
