    Pearson will not be called up in Sept, and will definitely get the Vlad treatment. Since we are talking about a few weeks, I don't think it's a big deal. Vlad was big league ready with the bat in mid 2018, that's why there was a big hoopla about it. With Pearson, he's on an innings restriction and only has 2 AAA starts. No rush, and no point, putting him on the 40 man now.

    I didn't like it for the Jays initially, only because I didn't think we needed to add anything (Stevenson) to get a player who was about to be out of options with no role on his team, but yeah it really seems like both teams buying at the lowest value and hoping to get anything of value out of it. Jays hoping they can fix Fish and Astros hoping they could fix Sanchez + get anything out of Biagini/Stevenson. Ultimately seems like a pretty blah trade for both teams.

    Kyle Johnston was acquired by the Jays in the Hudson deal. Before trade: 105 IP, 37 BB, 100 K After trade: 18.2 IP, 20 BB, 12 K Aaron Sanchez would be so proud.

    Hoping for a Yankees/Dodgers World Series. Two big markets and the two best teams. Good for baseball and baseball fans.

    The Mets drew 3 straight walks in the 10th but due to the umps it resulted in 2 outs and a single. Robo umps need to happen yesterday.

    28.1 IP, 22 H, 9 ER, 2 BB, 23 K, 4 HR He actually pitched another scoreless inning after I posted that, so he had 7 SO innings tonight. He also had a 10:0 GO:FO rate tonight, which probably puts his GB% over 50% over that span, but I'm too lazy to calculate that.

    Hatch: 6 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K, 8:0 GO:FO Numbers since the trade are pretty damn good.

    MLB needs to hire a bunch of 20-somethings who are familiar with social trends and what a younger audience wants, and go from there. This is embarrassing. Provides absolutely no value to the viewer and is an eye sore. They won't gain a single fan with this s***.

    MLB is awful at marketing. You look at the NBA and NFL, and it's night and day compared to MLB. Granted it is easier to market to a younger generation in an individual driven league like the NBA, but man, every time MLB tries to do something to appeal to a younger audience it comes off so lame.

    The Brewers are actually 3rd place right now, but your point still stands. Veterans are undervalued. Free agency is cheap. The Jays have a young core and payroll flexibility. Seems like a perfect time to take advantage of that. Of course, the Jays need SPs. The more undervalued vets seem to be the hitters. Still should be able to find 2-3 war types on the cheap either way.

    Aside from free agents, there is also trades. We saw pitchers like Roark get traded for nothing in the winter simply because he was arb eligible and expensive. Sonny Gray was another. Ivan Nova is a 2 win SP who was traded for nothing because of his salary. There will be teams out there looking to shed salary, or move a player that is overpaid but still potentially useful. Not sure who would fall under that category this winter. Maybe the Pirates would trade Archer, though he's out with a shoulder issue now so maybe not. There will be pitchers out there on the trade market who a team doesn't want to pay. The Jays should be all over those. Trading for vets is easy now. Doesn't require top prospects.

    If the fans don't do it, hanging out with Manoah will.

    I don't care about days off here and there, but literally every game there is a different lineup because Montoyo wants to play everyone regardless of actual talent or upside. Even Vlad's lucky to get 5 games in a 7 game stretch. If you enjoy that, be my guest. I want to see the players with actual upside as much as possible.
  14. glory
    McKinney starting in LF instead of Fisher tonight. Damn, Montoyo's cycle of new players everyday is really annoying.
  15. glory
    Pure guess on my part but it seems like we will know after the minor league season is over.
  16. glory
    Yeah, not sure whether to be worried about the walks, or happy that he's not giving up dingers anymore (only 2 in 26.2 inning since the trade), but either way he's showing improvement.
  17. glory
    Kay: 6 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 6 K, 91 pit Might be done for the night.
  18. glory
    *4 starting pitchers.

    I think that was always the plan, especially when Schneider came up to be a bench coach. Montoyo is here because no one half way decent wants to manage a 100 loss team. If/when the Jays start off poorly next season, I would expect to see Bunty fired and replaced by Schneider, and then the team will try to win in 2021. And man this team needs to add like 4 pitchers in the off season.

    Fisher can draw walks, has legit power, and speed.. I can see why the Jays like him. The tools are there. Whether he can put it together is the question.
  21. glory
    SRF against the Dodgers seems like a bad outcome waiting to happen.
  22. glory
    Since the no hitter, Sanchez has given up 7 walks, 5 home runs, and 10 earned runs in 12.2 innings. Fangraphs in shambles.
  23. glory
    Pearson inches closer to being in Pete Walker's guidance, but decided to pitch to contact beforehand so he's prepared for life in Toronto. Smart dude.

    Just looked at Pillar's stats (haven't paid attention to him at all), and he's still hanging around. He has a 1.6 WAR and 92 wRC+ since the trade. He'll likely finish around a 2 WAR on the season (maybe a little less). That should get him one more decent arb payday before he hits free agency (and subsequently gets ignored by teams because he's 30+). I wasn't his biggest fan, but still rooting for him. I expected him to fall off a cliff by now but he's still out there making the most out of his skill set. Good for him.

    Davis has a better chance of being on a 25 man roster than McKinney. Davis has a perfectly acceptable fourth outfielder skill set. McKinney sucks at everything. I mean I don’t think either one will be any good but I think Davis can at least be useful. McKinney is s***. Can’t run, field, or hit. Give Davis those PA’s.
