    What terrible options. I wonder if there is anyone available via trade.
  2. Terminator
    The one thing Gibbons seems to understand, correct me if I'm wrong, is splits so I think he'd use him effectively.

    Gossage once got in a fight with a teammate and injured himself. He was out for 6 weeks. Not sure why fighting a teammate is ok in his book.
  4. Terminator
    Better off ignoring all of it then taking anything from it.

    DC isn't so bad. Lots of touristy s*** to see but if you don't give a s*** about American history it might not be that great.

    Are you a Freemason or a Zionist?
  7. Terminator
    Probably the ideal scenario.

    Let's say Pompey is sent down, Zeke is the 4th OF. Is Zeke the backup CFer? Yuck! Although like you said Pillar should hit close to 162 and if he gets hurt Pompey can play CF. I just worry Pillar ends up with some nagging injuries and we see Zeke or even worse Bautista in CF.
  9. Terminator
    So are we really not going to pick up another OF? If Pompey doesn't win the LF job, Gibbons said he's going down to AAA. Who would our 4th OF be? Do we even have one who can play CF?

    The definition of mediocre according to Google is "of only moderate quality; not very good." Average is "of the usual or ordinary standard, level, or quantity." Although the definition of average also includes mediocre. So I suppose the terms can be interchangeable.
  11. Terminator
    I voted mediocre because it was the closest option to average. I liked the direction more than anything. We've got our own guys we need to lock up long term so not adding any big salaries was helpful. I also liked most of the moves (not necessarily the Hendricks trade). But no major improvements happened, we merely patched some holes so hard to grade it higher than that for me.

    Good comments by Shapiro. Didn't say anything to fan the flames.
  13. Terminator
    It's called a take it or leave it offer.
  14. Terminator
    Well it's even worse, Bautista said he wouldn't even allow them to counter or negotiate. Although that might have been posturing as I'm sure he would have allowed some wiggle room if they Jays got close to matching, right?

    Now Rosenthal is seconding it. Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 9m9 minutes ago Hearing same as @jonheyman: Bautista asked #BlueJays for more than 5 yrs and more than $150M. But average annual value was below $30M per.
  16. Terminator
    Yeah good point.
  17. Terminator
    I wonder how many of those minor league guys can leave if they don't make the big league team?
  18. Terminator
    Yeah that Hendricks trade wasn't the best. That's also interesting about Happ getting more than Gallardo; I didn't think of that before. I honestly might prefer Happ but you would think Happ's market would be smaller than Gallardo's.
  19. Terminator
    The rotation was in shambles to start the offseason. And not only the big league rotation but the AAA rotation as well. I like the FO's approach to add several options on shorter term deals in order to build depth. We will need 8+ starting pitchers this season and I think the FO did the best they could in getting that 8.

    The only time he got close to 200 strikeouts was in 2013, the last time he was any good.
  21. Terminator
    My guess is that Blair said that because they have similar salaries? It's hard to tell what the mind of an alcohol-related dementia sufferer is thinking.
  22. Terminator
    Fangraphs' profile on him kind of mirrors your thoughts and explains it pretty well.
  23. Terminator
    It's not they they think Saunders is worthless, they were prepared to pay him 2.9 mil. The perplexing part is that they think Bruce is an improvement. That said, I don't know Saunders medicals, idk what about Bruce they think is fixable, and I don't know how much money the Jays will get in this deal if it happens. To many moving parts to be upset about it right now.
  24. Terminator
    I mean if we add an insignificant net amount to the payroll and don't give up any prospects I think I'll chalk it up to "well maybe they know something". But if we are talking 3-4-5 or more million added it's going to be a real head-scratcher for sure.
  25. Terminator
    Yeah he definitely is. A lot of his quotes directed at Rogers haven't been making the rounds as much. Gregor Chisholm ‏@gregorMLB 21m21 minutes ago Bautista put all of the focus on Rogers: "It's not necessarily Ross and Mark. I can't say that, I don't know... (1of2) #BlueJays Gregor Chisholm ‏@gregorMLB 21m21 minutes ago ... Some of that decision making, of a contract of this size that I presented, has to come from ownership." #BlueJays
