    I thought they were in the WC but they're 1.5 games out w/ 3 to play. Either way having Gose and Goins sit on the bench for the 3 days isn't going to help the Jays very much outside of the odd defensive replacement.
  2. DuckDuckGose
    I was talking about the K rates not the FB velo.
  3. DuckDuckGose
    So as AAA playoffs start they are going to take two of the Bisons' best players and not even have the guys they send down report? Terrible idea.
  4. DuckDuckGose
    Well Hutch and Stroman would have to spend some time in Buffalo (which no MLBer really likes) and you'd be taking some of Buffalo's best players away for their playoffs series. That's a pretty big negative.
  5. DuckDuckGose
    Love his grit. He'd be a useful 4th outfielder. Hoping they let Rasmus walk and go with Gose/Pillarin CF next season.
  6. DuckDuckGose
    If it doesn't cost an option I'd be fine with it but why not just keep them down and playing in AAA as opposed to sitting on the bench in Toronto.
  7. DuckDuckGose
    Huh? He's a definite legit prospect. Just look at Hendo in MIA.
  8. DuckDuckGose
    And all I'm saying is is stupid to think that he's gong to be an impact defensive LFer. The are like 5 players in each league that can do that.
  9. DuckDuckGose
    Ackley isn't close to Gardner either. We all know about the value of saving runs. You still need to score to win. Which is why you need premium bats in your lineup. Far easier to find a big bat LFer than virtually every other position. Additionally its near impossible to find a player who can impact a game defensivly in left.
  10. DuckDuckGose
    One of the best bats in the league. He's finished top 15 in MVP voting 4 times. Huge bat, silly to compare Ackley to him in a down year.
  11. DuckDuckGose
    Run differential is key but you still need to score runs to win.
  12. DuckDuckGose
    Silly example seeing as Holliday is an MVP calibre player in a down year.
  13. DuckDuckGose
    Well if anyone disagrees they should go watch yesterday's game and they'll understand pretty quickly.
  14. DuckDuckGose
    It's a fairly safe assumption but it's not a given. The organization would have a lot more information to use in this regard then we do. I'd love to see it. Maybe we can get someone to plant the seed in DSJ's head. Anyone have him on Twitter mind asking if he's considered it? Probably his shortest path to the majors...
  15. DuckDuckGose
    There is no reason to assume he's going to play plus LF defense. He could just be average, or close to it, in a corner. If that's the case then he's probably closer to replacement level.
  16. DuckDuckGose
    I know he's taken reps there with the Jays. He hasn't had any game time. Very athletic build, great lines in the field and has crazy hands. Looks like an infielder out there. IMO would be a question of getting the footwork down but as I;ve said for years I love his tool set just not in the OF.
  17. DuckDuckGose
    How is a re-0build different than blowing it up? I don't think anyone wants to see AA give away his assets for pennies on the dollar but if he can get equal value and in the process rejig the team's payroll structure they should blow it up.
  18. DuckDuckGose
    He has a point.
  19. DuckDuckGose
    Law is snarky when he doesn't know the answer.
  20. DuckDuckGose
    It really depends on how his team is constructed. LF is a premium offensive position, you can afford to go with a guy like DSJ or SStewart if you have elite bats elsewhere. Definitely not a traditional LF'er and he doesn't have the arm for RF at the MLB level.
  21. DuckDuckGose
    He's always been on the radar because he has MLB caliber tools, this is just the 1st year he has put it together. In terms of Jays' prospects I have him around the 10th spot. If he moves to 2B, where I feel his tools play much better, than I think he'll get more attention. As The Dude said a little lower, doesn't have the bat for LF, may not be good enough to stick in CF at the MLB level.
  22. DuckDuckGose
    He's where the Jays want all of their top end pitching prospects to be at 19. All of Synder, Sanchez, Nicolino, Hutchison, Alvarez, and Castro have finished their age 19 seasons.
  23. DuckDuckGose
    Norris has shot up as fast. Hutch was in AA as a 20yo. Syndergaard did it except it was in a Mets' uniform. Hendo was similar as well cracking the mahors at 21yo. It's what good prospects do.
  24. DuckDuckGose
    Somewhere in the Top 10 I'd imagine.
  25. DuckDuckGose
    It's rare not unique.
