    Ohtani hitting grounders like 2019 Vlad.
  2. glory
    Gallo's pitcher might as well have been Dolis with the amount of time he was taking.
  3. glory
    Mets got a great pick at 10.
  4. glory
    Could definitely see the Angels going with Rocker.
  5. glory
    Some mocks have had Rocker dropping to the Royals. That seems like a realistic spot for him.

    Henry Davis going 1st overall according to Passan.

    The Indians likely have a better shot at the WC than the Jays do given the division they play in, so I doubt they trade Ramirez. Their payroll is nothing anyway and he has two affordable option years left so they have no incentive to move him like they did with Lindor, especially if they can sneak into a WC spot with him.

    131 PA, 75 wRC+, 2.3 BB%, 29.0 K%, .244 OBP The issue is not so much his performance, he's a streaky 1 WAR outfielder so this is exactly what he is, but as long as Buntoyo is managing, I don't think he'll ever truly be used as a 4th OF. Charlie loves vetrins. Loves them. Whether they are good or not. Even if the Jays find a way to add a bat or two at the deadline, Grich is going to play 4-5 times a week. I'm almost sure of that. I'm just tired of seeing him as an everyday player, so if they have to "Joe Panik" him to give someone else a shot, then I'm all for it. Find an equally bad contract and move on.

    Cleveland always values MLB players in trades so if they were to trade Ramirez I’m sure Biggio would interest them. There would have to be way more included though.
  10. glory
    Yeah not sure why Reese is in there against a lefty. Just bizarre that the Jays are leaving Kirk in the minors to ride out a hot streak that’s probably already over from a scrub.

    "Why do the Jays need to get Nelson Cruz?" Every time Grichuk comes back and you realize he's playing everyday, that's why.
  12. glory
    Yeah seems like a lot of Jay Allen to the Jays in the mocks posted here. I know next to nothing about amateur prospects so I don't know if that would be a good pick or not, but can't argue with the Jays drafting under the Atkins regime (last 3 first round picks being Groshans, Manoah, and Martin) so will trust them either way.

    If the Cubs took Grichuk back, then I think a Kimbrel deal makes more sense. Only a minor hit to 2022 payroll (about $5-6m more) followed by a ~$10m savings in 2023, but the Jays would have to add some real sweetener in that deal as Grichuk provides no type of value to the Cubs. I vaguely remember reading that Atkins wanted to save financial bullets for this coming winter, which is why other than Springer it was basically all one year deals, so as mentioned before I don't think they take Kimbrel if they are adding $16m to the payroll next year. If they are only adding ~$5m (with Grich included), then it's a different ballgame. Don't think either scenario is all that likely.
  14. glory
    Yeah I think Bauer ends up skating out of this, unless more women come forward.
  15. glory
    If Kimbrel only needs 26 more games finished for his option to vest, then he'd get that before September with the way Buntoyo uses relievers. The Jays would have to be willing to have him back at $16m next year, and I'm not sure they would. Atkins doesn't usually invest heavily in the pen. My guess is he'll find a more cost effective RP or two that are having bad years but have great K rates and velocity.

    Imagine getting the highest AAV of any player in your sport, and then within 3 months risking it all for a random on social. Or maybe someone told him that nothing will ever be as embarrassing as the rap song he recorded years ago, and Trevor took that as a challenge.
  17. glory
    Not the perfect fit since a DH-only is a bit restrictive, but for a DH-only who can put up a 140-150 wRC+, I think you can find a way to make it work.
  18. glory
    Doesn't sound like an actual rumor, but hell yes to adding Cruz. Use Grichuk as the 4th OF, rest Cruz a few times a week due to his age (which would open up DH for Vlad/Springer when necessary), and outslug everyone.
  19. glory
    Richards, Cimber, Mayza, and Romano to seal this win.
  20. glory
    I'm glad the Jays scored off Harvey. This game needs to be a blow out. Beat up on the s*** bag SPs.
  21. glory
    Thornton gone. Now just need another bullpen add or two to displace Dolis and Chatwood, who are both very dangerous because Buntoyo will not hesitate to use them in high leverage spots.
  22. glory
    First base is a big area of weakness for the Brewers, and Tellez (at least the 2020 version) has shown some glimpses of upside with the bat. Whether he turns into anything remains to be seen, but for a reliever and a fringe SP prospect, I think the Brewers made out pretty well. If Rowdy flops, no big loss for them. A good trade for both sides.
  23. glory
    Same thing happened with Sheffield against the M's last week. He looked so bad and hittable but the Jays couldn't break through against him and eventually lost. Jays offense is really good but they need to feast off the bad pitching when it's there for the taking.
  24. glory
    In 2019 I thought Thornton could make a pretty decent multi inning reliever, but he's actually a worse RP than he was a SP (he at least put up a 2 WAR season as a SP).
  25. glory
    Grandal out for 4-6 weeks. Maybe they'd be interested in Reese now.
