Goins hit .150. How convenient that you phrase that as merely under .250 and yes I realize that you could argue Kawa will regress to below .250 and Goins will regresses to above .200 but why would even entertain the disussion of swapping them well while Kawa is still doing well? If they're not going to bring in someone from outside the system, the Jays should at the very least ride the hot hand for now and maybe, just maybe the Goins for Kawasaki discussion will have some validity down the line but given how overmatched Goins was this season and how decent Kawa has been, it's downright embarassing to be making the argument now. That someone other than Gruber would actually try to do so is borderline surreal.

Looks like the Jays may have missed the sell window on Rasmus which sucks because CF was one of the rare areas of relative depth from which AA could have sold this off-season. Don't get me wrong, I don't love Gose but he's not much worse than bad Rasmus and bad Rasmus is what Rasmus is this season. If through some combination of moves, you're starting Gose on opening day and not Goins, it's at worst a wash in terms of the quality of the lineup and at least you're not in a position where Rasmus leaves and you get nothing back because you cashed him in when you could. If Rasmus keeps this up this could turn into another Josh Johnson situation.

Too bad it's practically impossible for the Jays to acquire top shelf Japanese talent now.

How is a percentage a prophecy?
-
FFS, I was just correcting the defensive positions from his post, adding Johnson and changing the defensive positions accordingly. I didn't think everybody would get so caught up in the order. The order doesn't matter. I obviously don't want Bautista 7th, I was just listing who would play and where. I actually explained this already.

And versus LHP SS - Reyes 2B - Kawasaki LF - Cabrera 1B - Bautista DH - Navarro C - Kratz RF - Reimold CF - Rasmus 3B - Tolleson
-
O.K. in a more normal order now: SS - Reyes 2B - Kawasaki LF - Cabrera RF - Bautista C - Navarro 3B - Francisco DH - Reimold 1B - Johnson CF - Rasmus
-
I didn't worry about the order. I was just fixing the positions from your lineup.
-
Versus LHP SS - Reyes 2B - Kawasaki LF - Cabrera 1B - Bautista C - Kratz DH - Navarro RF - Reimold CF - Mastroianni (until Gibbons grows tired of that) 3B - Tolleson Probably not in that order.
-
SS - Reyes 2B - Kawasaki LF - Cabrera 1B - Johnson C - Navarro DH - Reimold RF - Bautista (possibly DH for now) CF - Rasmus 3B - Francisco

You must be joking? Houston is NOT trading Altuve.
-
What's the timeline on a toe fracture? If this is a short DL stint, I don't see what the big deal is. He wasn't fully healthy to begin with.
-
Still no source on this...

McCarthy To Yankees (for Vidal Nuno?!)
KingKat replied to NorthOf49's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
While Nuno was terrific for Arizona. -
Just as well. Presumbaly, this means Dan Johnson gets a call up after all.
-
Farrell couldn't snub his own guy again. That's more important than the game itself.

- He's well know to be abbrasive and has had a difficulty fitting in certain clubhouse, most infamously, San Francisco. - He's a terrible framer. - He's stopped hitting. There's literally no reason to have this guy on your club.
-
He's a mid-seaon callup or he doesn't get called up at all. When was the last time the Jays started a service clock in September? It was probably Snider.
-
Upon re-reading I guess what you're saying is something along the lines of absence of evidence does not equal evidence of absence. I really don't see why that would change the decision process in the slightest but if you want to split hairs that's fine.
-
Sorry you've completely lost me but that's o.k. Kind of bored with the conversation anyways.
-
AA hasn't been too aggresive with september callups. Maybe the Snider fiasco is still fresh in the mind.
-
Wasn't there another incident with Delabar like an angry quote to the media or something like that?
-
Such a sunny way to frame that. Might not be a thing though. If he knew he was likely to come back almost immediately as a DL replacement, it makes perfect sense.
-
Well maybe I'm not expressing myself well.... To put it differently, it "might" be a thing in a particular case but you'll get nowhere managing to everything that "might" be a thing. You're better off managing to the bigger sample barring something circumstantial like an injury.
