Blue Jays agree to terms with Tanner Roark

Also part of the despair of watching Dickey pitch was knowing that you gave up Syndergaard for the opportunity. That sour taste in your mouth would never go away and it still hasn't. -

Mark Buehrle was a f***ing treat to watch on the mound so you better wash your mouth son. It's amazing what one man could do with an 86 mph fastball and a wide assortment of junk. Poor man's Kyle Hendricks. Dickey with his f***ing trick pitch would have one or two good innings tops and then get absolutely lit the f*** up with walks to everyone, passed f***ing balls gallore to his pet Josh Thole who was like Billy Hamilton without the speed. Absolutely miserable experience. -
I imagined this was the case so I went soft on him.

You're off on the details a bit. It's 10M for year 1 with a 10M club option for year 2 with a 2.5M buyout for a 12.5M guarantee.

Not true, if no one wanted Roark then we wouldn't have "overpaid a little" for him lol, how does that make any sense? You think Roark would rather sign for like 1/8 than come to the Blue Jays? Sure maybe teams like the Angels and others who desperately need high-end pitching weren't heavily pursuing him but at least two teams with hopes of contending wanted him: -
I feel like they'd rather eat a bit of Upton's salary and trade him in return for a prospect (pitching most likely) than trade Adell for an ace, but we'll see.
-
Jesus Christ no. I'd almost rather forfeit the DH every game than to witness Billy Hamilton pretend to be an MLB hitter. He's so f***ing bad.
-
Probably not with Pujols still playing a bunch of games at first, but aside from 1B which no one even cares about an infield with Simmons, Rendon, and David Fletcher who can also back anyone up is up there. Hard to top Arenado and Story on the left side of the infield though.

I watched him a bit with Oakland and I think BTS is being a bit unfair to his stuff but he's absolutely right that sometimes hitters just stop swinging at his secondary pitches and he looks like he doesn't know where he's standing and it's tough to watch. He also gets into a million 3 ball counts. He's a reliable average starter, with his ups and downs, but can be very frustrating to watch. Calling him a junkballer is unfair but he'll have stretches where every hitter is in a full count and no one is swinging at his pitches. -
Ugh, he's like Aaron Sanchez but is kind of a douche (even more so). Would prefer not to get him.
-
Why does this tweet sound so condescending? How many guys with $200+ million dollar contracts don't have at least massive partial no-trade clauses?
-
Bob triggered.

If the Angels don't get Ryu or Keuchel their offseason would be a horrible failure. The FO better not call it a day by acquiring Bundy and some average starter from FA.
-
Kick in the nuts to the Nationals who gave the same contract to an older, riskier, pitchier player. Boras finessed them.

You must have owned Roark in fantasy because I have no idea how you've watched him so much that you're throwing a Dickey watchability comp on him. -
Just as they were making a small run they give up a 12-0 run. So frustrating.
-
Powell has carelessly thrown the ball away so many times tonight.
-
OG in general has been great, but yeah his defensive chops are incredible. He really is like a mini Kawhi.
-
Ibaka and Lowry are killing us, but on the whole no one can make a shot right now.
-
It's certainly one of those games from the officiating.
-
For sure. This is a very Dodgers type of move to make, since they can both afford the risk and profit massively from the potential that he's back to being good.

Yes, we traded a month of Donaldson for a lottery ticket with good stuff who unfortunately missed the entire year. It happens, it's been pretty well established that the situation didn't end up the best it could have. -

I liked what I saw from Kay and Borucki in their initial stints with the team, but both guys are at best passable #4 starters and more likely than not are not very good at all. -
That is a shitload of money for a reliever who was non-tendered this offseason.

In other words, we're short on arms. There's one good prospect there with upside, an intriguing guy in Murphy, and a bunch of garbage where one guy might be average.
