  1. Scott Mitchell isn't terrible but if TSN is reporting on baseball i am generally not listening.
  2. This is the big thing. Teo is not a good defender and would rather see him as dh more often then not. Other then his arm he looks lost out there at times.
  3. I can confirm that the Cubs have been in contact with some teams and that the cubs will likely make a decision in the next 2 months about whether that are going to trade him or not.
  4. I want him in the worst way lol. Would cap off our lineup beautifully and would be a nice transition piece to Groshans or Martin.
  5. Biggio Springer Bichette Bryant Gurriel Hernandez Vlad Grichuk Jansen/Kirk Looks good to me/
  6. Pitchers seem to love Pete Walker. I don't think i have ever heard a negative thing said about him, wonder if he gets a shot some day at managing or if he is happy being the pitching guru at the Jays, Don't really want to lose him. Also i would be happy with a Walker/Paxton get should be able to get Walker for 2 years and maybe Paxton on 2 but it might take 3years. Ryu Paxton Pearson Walker Ray/Stripling Thats not a terrible Rotation there.
  7. Sammy wants Kris Bryant manning 3rd
  8. I know i don't like it lol.
  9. Not like old Kenny to jump the Gun..... If i am a betting man i am guessing that it is close to done but not yet. If Ken is reporting something there must be a little fire.
  10. Anyone get the feeling Shatkins read stromans tweet and said to themselves "i will show this little f***".
  11. Now this is where things get interesting. Someone is getting traded and likely for pitching help....... But who
  12. God bless them they try but if it is not Raptors or Hockey they don't really Give a f***.
  13. True, I just have a hard time seeing this contract eventually being as bad as that or the Vernon Wells contract or something like that. for arguments sake if we are paying him 20M on the last year if its a little front loaded is it going to be able to play up to it likely not. Most long term contracts are like that. As long as he is still providing 10M worth of value it would be easier to swallow.
  14. Me and a friend were talking about this last night. The way contracts are going in Baseball 25M likely is not going to play a huge roll in 5 years. Yes it will likely still be fairly significant but not as much as it would be today. Would it have been better on a 5 year deal.... Yes but we have not had a actual CF on this team since Pillar left 2 years ago so i will take it. Our OF defense was s*** and this should make it better. If they front load this deal then i don't see it being much of an issue.
  15. He is just butt hurt this FO would not give him a five year contract.
  16. Has Stroman weighed in yet. I would like to know his thoughts.
  17. Get pumped. My meat guy said it’s true
  18. I mean we are getting closer but I’m not taking Vendettas word as he likely does not have many ins to the company.
  19. I mean he has over 1300 followers he would not steer them wrong. I will wait for Kevin Gray to confirm from the Darvish deal as well
  20. Is it just me who would rather Marcus Semien on a two year deal. Gives Groshans time. After 1 down season could be a good signing.
  21. For sure. if its 150M to get him I think it would be best to pass on him and maybe sign JBJ type and a Marcus Semien as well. Your upgrading your Defense majorly and your offense a little bit, however then we can focus more on pitching which could use a face lift.
  22. Yes and no.... By all indications Cohen wants to go all in for is first year i could see him thinking i want people to know i am serious and what better way then getting the biggest free agent. They have the inside track because this is his boyhood team and he does not have to leave the country (seems to be consistent with the jays). I feel like if the Jays want him they are going to have to over pay and i don't think that many fans understand this. I read things on twitter about why would blue jays not sign him makes too much sense.... or if they don't they don't care, well its not that easy and it is just my belief is that Blue jays are never really a option for high end free agents. I would be shocked if we get Springer but who knows it is not going to be easy.
  23. If they are wanting better offers they may have to offer a negotiation window for an extension (i believe we did that with Dickey). I believe times are changing and teams don't want to give up a pile for a 1 year rental. Your starting to see that a little more at the trade deadline as well.
  24. I want to say Scott Rolen with one of the best defensive third baseman (yes short stint) we have had at the corner. He was very sure handed. I don't remember anything about big Troys D
  25. Maybe i lack optimism but i don't see us getting Bauer (i think angels if not they fail), and then after him you got Tanaka and Paxton and they are both question marks at this point. Walker is not that far below them and i think could be more valuable than them. If we can get Sugano that would be great but i don't see any overly better options unless someone is on the market that i am missing.
