  1. *shrug* I've worn hats a LOT in my life, and I'm still full head of hair at 42... I mean, it's getting greyer by the second, but it's still there!
  2. Thing is, Fisher likely had to be DFA'd regardless, as there's no room for him on the 26 man, so it's not JUST a 40 man consideration here.
  3. Remember when we all assumed that the Bauer signing would lead to a rush of signings? Good times.
  4. Thanks, Orioles! Your ineptitude is the gift that keeps on giving!
  5. I don't. But I accept them as an inevitability.
  6. If only there was something about the 2017 Astros that could explain the ridiculous outlier wRC+ for Marwin Gonzalez... Hrmmm... 2016: 89 2017: 144 2018: 104 2019: 93 I guess we'll never know why the only seasons where he posted a WAR above 1.4 were the seasons where the Astros were involved in a very public cheating scandal....
  7. JPR was SO BAD AT DRAFTING though. He was like "my priority is high floor college guys who can be basically average, but SOON!"
  8. Hey, Muni managed to put up a positive WAR as a part time player in all 3 seasons he was with the Jays, that's better than our starting shortstop at the time was doing.. He wasn't JUST entertaining, he was a passable bench piece.
  9. So, L54 is pro toddler punching. That's a bold stance.
  10. I mean, I have no skin in this game, beyond thinking Bauer is a huge dickbag in general regardless of this one incident, but let's not pretend there isn't a HUGE power difference between some random college kid and a popular professional baseball player. That's like defending someone who punched a toddler by saying "what? The kid started it!"
  11. I mean, there's a pretty large difference between 4/65 (or 5/80) and 5/50. I'm not saying that Ozuna isn't the better player, or that the contract isn't a great deal for the Braves, just like... "I got this Toyota for $50K, when I could have gotten that BMW for $80K" isn't something the average person complains about.
  12. I can't imagine it would be much if it's a salary dump, and there aren't a lot of teams w/ money to spend right now. It would be hilarious if they traded him to the Mets though.
  13. I CANNOT BE BANNED! BWA-HA-HA! /cf
  14. Costs them basically nothing...
  15. Walker was healthier last season than either Odorizzi/Paxton, but super fragile the seasons before that. Tough to say who is the more durable one going forward, but I mean, the team will have a lot more access to medicals etc than we do, so they'll make a more informed decision than I can Odorizzi is probably my brain's choice, but I really do find Walker intriguing for reasons that aren't necessarily all that brain-thinkie.
  16. I've been back and forth on which of the 3 likely options we should sign, and the more I think of it, the more I consider it kinda a wash between Odorizzi/Paxton/Walker. Walker is clearly the weakest one of the group, but not by a huge margin, and I'm VERY intrigued by his eagerness to take advantage of the Jays resources to improve himself... I'd be okay with any of the 3 though.
  17. I'd be absolutely okay with Osuna coming back, but the optics would make that pretty much impossible.
  18. That is the most information from the alternate camp that I've seen anywhere. "Lots" of info from 2020, when we've seen relatively little.
  19. It's 100% impossible for a minor league w/ spring training invite signing to be bad. I mean, I suppose there's a possible, theoretical signing that could end up being bad if you somehow hired a 5 year old to draft the contract, and it was for a guaranteed forfteen bajillion dollerz and that somehow held up in court... But Dave Stewart isn't a GM anymore...
  20. ZiPS projects 3.2 WAR, and he's not worth a roster spot? Sure thing, Keef.
  21. Yeah, the timing of this is like "GET HIM OUT SO BAUER WILL COME PLAY!"
