    Another HR for Schwarber.

    Teams could have had Reese for free and didn't do it. Will there be more interest after his hot streak? I don't know, but seems unlikely. My guess is one of Jansen or Kirk will be in AAA while McGuire stays on. I would hope Jansen is the one who goes to AAA, but wouldn't shock me if it's Kirk knowing that Montoyo bases playing time on years of service (aka the Joe Panik rule).

    I wouldn't vote for Randal if you paid me to.

    Seriously, Joe Panik is gone! This is amazing. I've been waiting for this day since his minor league contract was confirmed before the season. I knew Buntoyo would play him too much and dude was awful as expected. If Atkins wasn't going to fire Charles, then taking his vetrins away will at least mitigate some of his stupid lineup decisions.
  5. glory
    I just saw Panik going the other way and it’s already a win. Don’t even care who the Jays got back.
  6. glory
    Seeing pitchers get exposed is the best thing about this sticky stuff saga.
  7. glory
    While 100 wRC+ Espinal with better defense rots on the bench.
  8. glory
    If Grichuk doesn’t lead the league in DPs, he has to be in the top 5.
  9. glory
    Panik is going to play 4 days a week (minimum) even with everyone healthy. I don’t know how but Buntoyo will find a way.
  10. glory
    Yes. He should be taken out after 7. Whether he will or not is another question.
  11. glory
    Those 2 innings pitched in 2 blowouts really gave Montoyo the impression that Saucedo was ready for high leverage work. The pen is dumpster fire, so there was a chance for implosion regardless of who he brought in, but Saucedo is not the guy to bring into the game in that spot.
  12. glory
    Jansen has two options remaining according to FG, so keeping Reese and (hopefully) starting Kirk when he gets back is looking like the likely scenario.
  13. glory
    Agreed. The player development under AA was awful, and Ricciardi's regime wasn't good at drafting period, so not sure we can use previous Jays prospects as a reference point. The Shatkins regime has been excellent at player development so far, and while it is certainly possible that players like Martin and Groshans could become busts down the line, it wouldn't be because of lack of effort by the organization. They have invested quite a bit in player development. I'd trust top prospects panning out more now than I would have 5-10 years ago. I think trading pitching prospects (especially if established pitching is coming back) is the way to go. I just don't trust pitching prospects, and I'd rather have a young position player core and old rotation anyway.

    Players as good as or better than Grichuk sign cheap one year deals in the current market. He’s just not a long term asset and unfortunately he still has another two years to go after this one. A bad contract swap is possible but the Jays would have to eat up a lot of his contract if it’s a straight dump. In today’s environment, $10m a year for a 1 WAR outfielder is just not good value by any team’s metrics, and even if the Jays ate half of the deal, you could get a Pillar type for less than that every off season.

    Panik's the backup at every position even though he can only play one. When you're that professional, it's hard to keep you on the bench.
  16. glory
    I've always thought MLB needed to add unique team uniforms/shoes for the AS game, one that caters more to younger people since it would make the game at least look more appealing to that demo, but the above isn't it. That's not good at all. As far as the American flag on the Jays jersey, it's appropriate this season.
  17. glory
    If Ray keeps this up he’d be someone I’d give the QO to, but I’d be wary of a long term deal. Although if there is a price and term that makes sense for both sides, then it’s worth looking into.
  18. glory
    It wouldn't surprise me if the Jays start Moreno at CA (whenever he comes up) and use Kirk as backup CA + DH. Atkins seems partial to players he drafted/signed (like every GM usually is). I think they move on from Jansen regardless of the return whenever they feel Moreno is ready to step in, and Tellez probably has one foot out the door as well so DH is unoccupied.

    I'm for Suggs as well. I wouldn't be upset with any of Suggs, Green, or Mobley, but my guess is it will come down to Suggs or Green (Mobley won't get past 3 IMO). A FVV/Suggs backcourt would work, and he fits in perfectly with this team.

    Samad Taylor turning into a power hitter was a development I wasn't expecting. His K% in June is 23.9%, so he's improving in that area after his big K May. Still only 22. I don't know if the club views him as a potential trade piece or someone they plan to protect in the Rule 5 next season, but he's gone from potential sleeper the past few years to intriguing.

    Pitchers cheat....then throw a fit when the league tells umpires to make sure they are not cheating anymore. I'll take the meltdowns if it means pitchers aren't using any illegal substances.

    Wander Franco just tied the game at the Trop with a 3 run HR.
  23. glory
    Montoyo being suspended for any reason is a positive.
  24. glory
    Baseball needs to get some new, fresh blood into their announcing ranks. The Jays broadcast when it’s just Buck and Pat is like the dictionary definition of “out of touch”. Can’t promote the sport to a younger demo with guys like that still employed in prominent roles.
  25. glory
    The super two cut off must be over. No other reason why the Rays would call Franco up.
