I think Nurse said McCaw is part of the 8 man rotation when everyone is healthy. I think he plays over TD in the playoffs even if everyone is healthy, but I really really hope I'm wrong.
-
Look at every advanced metric. McCaw is one of the worst players in basketball, and I wish I was exaggerating because it seems like he'll be getting minutes regardless. If you don't think that will hurt in the playoffs when the Raptors can't abuse teams with fastbreak points as much as they do in the regular season, then you are in for a shock. Teams will ignore McCaw in a half court set. It will be 4x5 every time. I hope Nurse has something up his sleeve.
-
If McCaw is getting rotation minutes in the playoffs, I don't think this team is getting out of the 2nd round. They can't afford to have a blackhole like him getting 20+ minutes when every possession matters in a half court setting. He can't shoot, dribble, create, pass, rebound, or do just about anything even at an average level. He is bad at just about everything. It is baffling how he even gets minutes, much less is a rotation player in Nurse's mind.

I have a feeling Panik and his vetrin presents will find a way to get nearly everyday AB's, so leaving DH open for that and moving others around regularly is another possibility.

4.1 IP, 3 H 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K for Ryu against the Rays today.
-
I would be fine with that. I'm not expecting him to be a great player or anything, but as a 4th/5th OF, he seems more likely to stick than Alford. Davis has historically hit lhp in the minors, is a very good defensive player, and is fast. Maybe a bootleg RH Jarrod Dyson. Use him in very specific situations and he'll have value.

Damn didn't see you post that. I wanted to be the lone Mets backer. They will surprise people.

He also had Aaron Judge levels of exit velocity during that span if I recall. I can understand Shatkins giving him more rope. It's a question of whether the team should value Fisher and Alford as much as they seem to rather than look for a replacement and push Fisher to 4th OF.
-
I'm down for signing Puig, but Shatkins seems to really like Hernandez and Fisher, and signing Puig could cut into both of their opportunities. With Grichuk in CF, that opens up RF/DH for Hernandez and Fisher with Alford as a 4th outfielder (to the delight of many on this board).

General 2020 Blue Jays Discussion Thread

Jays clearly preparing for Vlad to move off 3B. Shaw is like a bootleg version of Moose (assuming he bounces back). Between targeting players who can cover 3B/1B, and Shapiro's recent words that seemed directed at Vlad's weight/conditioning, it's only a matter of time. -
Mets will win the NL East and make the World Series.
-
MLB is getting some positive reviews from social media/ESPN for the players being mic’d, from what I’ve seen online. Only a matter of time before every team does this.
-
Vlad can still be an elite fat player, but if he doesn't get in better shape, then his peak/prime won't last very long. No question he will move off third, maybe as early as 2021, which will benefit the team and Vlad himself most likely.
-
Glad to see Yelich get paid despite being locked in about the most team friendly contract out there.
-
Wow, Sale has 5/145 left on his contract. Wish Dombrowski stayed in Boston a bit longer.
-
Yeah don't watch the NFL. I'm sure it can get annoying depending on who is mic'd up, but baseball letting players show their personality is a good thing, even if it's only spring games.
-
I'm liking MLB trying new things. Giving the players a mic in the regular season might not be as popular with players due to the games actually meaning something, but this is a great way to show their personalities. If they have done this before, I haven't seen it.

“The Airport” is ridiculous. Please don’t do that to Nate. -
I’m really rooting for Alford but man between the K’s and the D it’s not looking good.
-
I wonder if a tanking team is going to give Tebow a chance before he decides to hang it up. Might sell a few tickets even though he will not be good. He’s popular in the States.

Don't really pay attention to MLB's YouTube channel, but glad to see they are providing different kinds of content now. Seems like a no brainer to do more stuff like this during the off season.
