  1. Oh no a pitcher who hasn't pitched much last year is struggling in his first spring game outting. EVERYBODY FREAK OUT!
  2. Took the words right out of my mouth.
  3. This happens every year. AA claims a guy, then DFA him to claim someone else who then gets DFA a week later. He's probably just trying to sneak a few of these guys through to have at Buffalo. You know, so when the injury bug hits he can call them up and then DFA them again.
  4. Then OD because you have to be incredibly high to think the Jays could do all of that.
  5. Does anyone know if we resigned Adam Loewen?
  6. Who will have been a better player when their careers are over, Phelps or JP??
  7. All players have talent but we only have so many roster spots. In my opinion it would be foolish to acquire a player who can't really play any position well, and be strictly a "bench bat" or DH unless they absolutely mash (Edgar, Ortiz). You're basically using a roster space for a one dimensional player. The bench should be somewhat versatile. Just my humble opinion though.
  8. Sorry, but in my personal opinion a player of his talents would be a waste of a roster space on this current team. He doesn't play any position well; he plays 1st base at a below average level and his a bad catcher. He also isn't a great hitter. We don't really have a need for a pure "bench bat" as we don't play in the NL. Granted he would probably be the best 3rd catcher in baseball.
  9. I doubt many teams will give up a 1st round pick for one year unless 1) Their top pick is protected or 2) They think they are one SS away from contending.
  10. A (mostly) positionless DH adds exactly what flexibility to the bench?
  11. Alex Gonzalez was a good looking dude.
  12. No stats during the seasons will be kept, instead there will be "Top 10 _______" lists with no determinable criteria.
  13. I really think they will too. Unless the player is truly near the top of their position I just don't see teams wanting to give up compensation for them. 2nd tier players like Kendrys Morales and Cruz should have accepted the QO and I could see next years free agent class of 2nd tier position players going on the side of caution. However, the offseason is not over.
  14. I agree. Last year we had 2 black holes (2nd and C) and a mess in left field. With Melky's tumor removed he shouldn't be nearly as bad as last year. And if Navaro can get on base and Goins can get on base even once a game I'd be delighted. Our lineup even with Goins in it isn't nearly as bad most people act.
  15. Other than Sexson every one of those players spent time with the Jays.
  16. I guess that would depend on what kind of porn it was.
  17. Yunesky Maya, who defected from Cuba in 2009. "I don't think it's a big secret that the Cuban League is very strong and he's had great results there...." Any opinions on exactly how strong this league actually is? I find it hard to believe that a country as small as Cuba has a strong baseball league. Opinions?
  18. I could see Rajai getting more than that. The Tigers gave Andy Dirks almost 500 PA last year and Davis can use his wheels once he gets on base.
  19. Royals designate E4 for assignment. ..no no no no no for 2nd base
  20. Nothing wrong with adding versatility in the minor leagues. It's not like it's a big investment or anything. It just adds another option for when half the starting infield gets injured, again.
  21. Don't see why not. He wasn't lighting the world on fire at 3rd why not see if he can spark something with a change in position.
  22. I think they are in a position where they didn't want to risk him accepting and then their hands being tied on doing other moves. Their rotation is pretty decent even without Burnett but they need a little bit more fire power in that lineup to advance further in the playoffs. When I'm back in the hometown my dad gets Root (which is Pitts sports channel) and I believe that's how they explained it.
  23. Friendly flirting?
  24. I hear you on that. I REALLY can't justify spending hundreds of dollars on something that I don't think I'd use very often. It's hard to rationally justify spending one month's rent on a video game system unless you plan to use it frequently. I'd love to play The Show on a PS3 or 4 but for right now it's just PS2 for me!
