  1. The only hitch is that it seems like the team wants to hold on to Carrera for CF depth and not risk losing him to waivers. Seems like they liked what they saw of Zeke last year and Pompey and Cecilliani are probably still question marks in their mind. That's why I'm not really optimistic that it's going to happen.
  2. Fair enough. It's true that the numbers don't jump off the page but they are pretty great once you adjust for age. I think he's kind of underrated right now or perhaps more accurately some other 1B prospects are really overrated compared to him.
  3. I liked Pagan as a target from the very start. Some people didn't but he's pretty hard to lift your nose at now that he's pretty much the last man standing. He's an easy cheap upgrade (or at worst a negligible sunk cost if he sucks for some reason). Just do it!
  4. Your snickering at Cyborg is pretty baseless since the career OPS is closer to 800 than 700. If you had presented the information well he would have known what you were talking about.
  5. Tellez is somewhat suspect but he's suspect in pretty much in the same way that some much more highly regarded 1B prospects are. He's hardly a sure thing but he's underrated at least compared to other prospects at his position (maybe not so much compared to prospects in general). If I was in a Dynasty draft, I'm be much more into drafting Tellez where you're likely to get him than the 1B prospect ranked ahead of him.
  6. Jake Bauers is still young enough to be a thing.
  7. http://www.rosterresource.com/mlb-toronto-blue-jays/
  8. Bon Scott played his own bagpipes on that. Bon Scott >>> Brian Johnson.
  9. This is official now. At first I was excited about the possibility but then I realized that as a right-handed hitter, he won't really benefit from Yankee Stadium and he'll be on the short side of the platoon despite not really having a platoon split so it's kind of meh but at least it's MLB.
  10. Willing to wok the wok. I like it.
  11. Seems plausible. Another possibility would be to simply try and work out a trade for Sparkman.
  12. If Chris Carter signs in Japan before the cutoff, ring me up. Otherwise, I'll just keep Carter and hope he finds a North American gig.
  13. The 12th? You're announcing a trade five days in advance?

    The best Superbowl commercial:
  15. I had absolutely no recollection that the Jays had an unsigned 2nd rounder in 2015. I had to look it up after you posted this.
  16. Oh I definitely notice and mind. I really hate how the commercial breaks are longer and the games end so much later in the playoffs. I live on the East Coast which amplifies the aggravation. It's also a turnoff for potential younger viewers. Baseball doesn't want to do away with the extra revenue from the commercial breaks even though it impacts the pace of the game far more than any of these other not really broken things they are trying to fix. The whole thing is so dumb. They don't want to take out the commercials in the playoffs, they don't want to depress offense by raising the mound or something like that and yet somehow magically, they want to make the game shorter.
  17. Four games in May against the Braves. Just to annoy us further, Dickey will probably pitch his best game of the season and shut out the Jays. http://toronto.bluejays.mlb.com/schedule/sortable.jsp?c_id=tor&year=2017
  18. So it's basically down to Texas, Toronto of Colorado. Texas seems like the best hope. Colorado would be awesome but I 100% believe they are committed to the idiocy of the Desmond experiment. Toronto would be awesome too but I don't feel like that's where the team wants to put money right now.
  19. Geez... Lomo is their Justin Smoak.
  20. Holy s***. I didn't even know that was a thing until just now.
  21. So basically, he's this guy now? http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/d/d0/CW-09-MetalMan-Art.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100506030946
  22. He should. He's 30 and no good. I can't imagine there's any market for him on this side of the ocean.
  23. I didn't realize just how bad his season was. Just brutal for a bat only player. Steamer likes him more than the past numbers would indicate but he still wouldn't be great. Didn't they mess with Mauer just to find room for him too? At year later he's DFA'd. That's not a well run team.
  24. Smoak gets more playing time than Pearce just so he can provide replacement level production. Gibby needs clear instruction to NOT allow this to happen.
