    Agreed. I think Shapiro makes the deal if he had a choice, but 2 straight ALCS appearances followed by 3 million+ attendance in '17, and I doubt he had the option of doing it. Still stings, though. It would probably sting less had JD stayed healthy and been traded for a real return in July, but hindsight can be a bitch some times.

    A very small one. Second straight below average season and in his mid 30s.

    Damn, they offered Flaherty for one year of JD? f***. I love Shatkins but damn.

    Honestly dude, I can't take anything you say seriously. Not after your posts on veganism/meat eating, which I thought was a troll job at first, but you really are that stupid. Regardless, in my post I asked "the Jays have no money to spend right?, and then ended it with "But if there isn't enough funds then I guess not". Did the animal you scrapped off the road and then ate raw afterwards somehow cloud your reading comprehension? I never said they have a shot at the Mesa's. It was more so to just post the article. It would be nice to add one of them, but "if the funds aren't there than I guess not". How dare I post such blasphemy. Oh well, I'm feeding the troll, so it's my bad.

    The O's will find a way to mess up all that international cap money somehow. That's how they roll.

    16 teams making the playoffs in baseball would be awful, but seems like something Manfred would do. Hope not.

    Sorry, I didn't eat enough meat this morning. The vegetables affected my memory.

    https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2018/09/victor-victor-mesa-free-agent-mlb-cuba.html The Jays have nothing left to spend right? Morales, Gurriel, Diaz.....corner that Cuban market. But if there isn't enough funds then I guess not.

    5 milly for a guy who doesn't defend, hit, or care. Atkins will get flooded with offers I'm sure.

    Lol the Rays might end up with a better record than Cleveland despite CLE being in the worst division in sports right now and the Rays will miss the playoffs entirely. Get rid of divisions and let the five best teams make it (4th and 5th play the WC game).

    Yeah the Jays don't have nearly enough Sp depth to talk about Sanchez going to the pen. He only has two years of control left. Start him, maybe he does well for half the season and then trade him. But right now, him and Stroman along with Borucki are the only MLB capable Sp's on the team.
  12. glory
    JD 0-4 with a K in his Tribe debut.
  13. glory
    Sanchez is a Boras client who is a free agent after 2020. So he'll have a great year in 2020. That's all I'm certain of. 2019 is probably going to be inconsistency mixed with blisters again.

    Pinch hit Travis for Upton too. He’s trying to be loyal to all his players which is fine but annoying for a team that is way out of it.
  15. glory
    Gibby let SRF pitch way too long. Not sure what the point was after he gave up the lead.
  16. glory
    I don't see Vlad signing an extension. He comes from money and if he bets on himself for six years he will hit the open market at age 26/27 and easily get more than any extension he signs today will give him. Only risk is injury but he's only 19. At 19 we all think we are invincible.
  17. glory
    When people complain that Shapiro only targets position players, stuff like this should be brought up. Pitching prospects suck.
  18. glory
    Seriously. Sign that man to a lifetime contract.
  19. glory
    Shapiro was an Ed Rogers hire so as bad as Ed is, he probably wants to keep Shapiro around. It is Shapiro that may want out (based on the rumors) but hopefully his quote is genuine and he sticks around for a while. I think Rogers will let the team have one more bad season, but then put pressure on Shatkins to win in 2020. That seems like a Rogers thing to do.
  20. glory
    Good. I mean, I'd prefer Cherington sticking around as well, but keeping Shapiro (for the next two years and beyond) is the key. Having a baseball guy as the team president is so refreshing, as opposed to Paul "we plan to install grass in 2018 even though my contract ends in 2015" Beeston.
  21. glory
    Yeah I think this needs to happen. Morales climbing back to a near 120 wRC+ makes him easier to move (still have to eat up salary) and Hernandez at DH gives McKinney an outfield spot. Have the AAA OF be Alford, Ramirez, and Smith/Davis. That’s pretty decent depth.
  22. glory
    Damn I hope Paulino can start. It's a long shot with his injury history but that's just the type of breakout candidate that can quicken a retool/rebuild/whatever the hell we are doing next year.
  23. glory
    Buck seems like the type who has whiskey next to his monitor during the games. He can't be thinking straight when he says half the stuff he says.
  24. glory
    True. That's why I think Travis is borderline because even though I don't see him as an everyday 2b anymore, he has at least stayed healthy this year.
  25. glory
    Agreed. Travis is borderline but I'd expect him to be gone too. Even though he has options left I'm sure the team would much rather have Biggio getting the reps at 2b in Buffalo than having to deal with Travis. Infield to start the year will probably be Drury, Tulo, Gurriel, and Smoak with Diaz off the bench. Maybe add an optionable IF who can cover all positions (definitely won't be Solarte and Travis can only play 2b).
