  1. In a way I kinda feel bad for the guy. He's obviously one of the best position players in the league and I don't really think that he was asking for too much. However, it's nice to have the savings and hopefully we can use it either over the offseason or at the deadline to improve the 25 man roster.
  2. If those bullpen arms are essentially interchangeable than it doesn't really matter if one of them goes down.
  3. I'd like to bring McGowan back as a strict reliever. It seemed that they were trying to keep him stretched out, which made his arm explode.
  4. If I remember correctly McGowan had incredible stuff. The brass probably thought that he was worth more trouble trying to keep than Perez.
  5. I agree. Where would we have been the past couple of years if we didn't have decent inning eaters like Dickey and Buehrle on the team? People bitch about not having enough pitching depth but having 2 guys who put up dependable 200 innings is huge and is part of that depth.
  6. They are going with one guy who is up there with JPA in terms of the bat, a guy who hasn't played above A ball, just to wait for a guy who is horribly defensively and strikes out at a ridiculous rate. Ugh.
  7. The lack of catching in Arizona makes me sad that AA hasn't shipped them Navarro yet for something useful.
  8. d'Arnaud is obviously incredibly talented. Hopefully he can stay healthy enough to stay at catcher because he isn't nearly as valuable elsewhere on the field.
  9. He's probably the biggest bust in the history of Jays first round picks.
  10. I use creatine beforehand and whey protein afterwards, that's it. I know there are a lot of supplements out there but in my opinion you don't really need them. Just work hard with your routine and keep adding weight, miles, resistance, etc and you'll see your results.
  11. Very true. I think a lot of guys misunderstand that cardio is absolutely needed to lose weight and be healthy. I don't know how many times I see my little brother, who lifts all the time, struggling for breath after running just half a mile with me.
  12. When I was in high school I eliminated all soda from my diet, which was mostly diet sodas, and lost 20 pounds in two months. That was it, didn't change anything else. A friend of mine was on the Atkins diet with his parents around the same time and lost over 100 pounds but couldn't lose the final 10 that was his goal. He was like you Hurl, he would drink (diet) sodas out of boredom and it was okay on Atkins because they are all 0 calorie.
  13. Ed Rogers is despairing the O's.
  14. Former Jays farmhand Mike Crouse signed with my hometown Lancaster Barnstormers of the Atlantic League. A few years ago Beebop Tallet was on the team.
  15. Maybe they are going to try to cultivate clutch hitting ability.
  16. Wonder what kind of return Hoffman, Pentecost, and Nay would get from other clubs.
  17. They do. 81.31 wins a season for the Orioles and 78.55 wins a season for the Jays. So you're basically talking a 3 win a season difference. Although the Blue Jays were an expansion franchise and the Orioles were an already established franchise when they moved the Baltimore.
  18. They do! In those 21 years the Jays have won 1634 games and the Orioles have won 1584 which is 50 games less than the Jays. Also, the Jays have 2 WS championships under their belt in 38 years. The Orioles have 3 championships in the 61 years they have been in Baltimore.
  19. If we do end up "trading" for DD I hope that Rogers has enough sense to let AA try to do the negotiation. I know that DD would be his boss but AA has shown that he is a good negotiator.
  20. Only 4 of those guys are still in the origination.
  21. I disagree. He looks like he belongs in the early English monarchy and I think that's fantastic.
  22. If he makes the team and turns into a decent piece I can see a Matt West wig giveaway happen.
