Groshans 1-4 with a 2b and 2 walks today (1 k).
-
I could see Cashman moving Adams or Tate for Happ. Sheffield is probably out of reach. I think you'd be happy with the package above and then try to sign Happ as a free agent in the winter, but hopefully with more teams in the running for Happ the Jays can squeeze out a better offer somewhere.
-
Yeah I'd rather get prospects who match up with the 2020 timeline. If they are big league ready now then so be it, but should be young enough to still be good during Vlad's years (2020-25).
-
Wonder if the Jays working some Smoak-ian magic with Grichuk that will take a bit of time to play out. Even if they don't, if he's a ~100 wrc+ player with his D and base running, he'll be an asset.
-
I think AA will trade for JD as well (assuming he’s healthy) and would love if that trade happened but that seems like a huge price for a rental even if AA is still in 2015 mode. I could see something like Toussiant plus, or something along those lines. The Braves have a deep enough system where the Jays could get a good deal from them even if it’s not one of their top prospects.
-
Teams are valuing prospects more now. I think we will get a good package for Happ, but Frazier would be in the super great territory, and I don't think that's happening. With a worse/more desperate GM, maybe, but not Cashman. The team that will blow their load is probably Seattle, but they don't have enough intriguing pieces. The Braves are 1st place and have a deep system. Maybe the Jays can make a deal there. Though with our luck AA is probably super strict about keeping prospects now.
-
I remember hearing that they wouldn't part with Torres or Andujar, but were willing to move Frazier. That was for Cole obviously, not for a 2 month rental. I think they will move Frazier eventually, but for Happ is a huge long shot.
-
The Yankees don't really have needs aside from the rotation so not sure what the Jays can add as sweetener to get Frazier other than prospects, and i'm sure Shatkins would rather not subtract from the farm at the deadline. I want nothing to do with Seattle's farm system.
-
Reading FG for the articles is like reading playboy for the articles. Fap to the stats. Ignore the other junk.
-
Frazier would be awesome, but can't see Cashman moving him for a rental.
-
The 2nd wild card being one game on the road against Sale or Severino seems really pointless. I guess anything can happen in one game but man that’s a long shot for the road team.
-
No it’s because Cashman never loses a trade. Dombrowski treats prospects like cheap whores so there’s a chance you can fleece him depending on how desperate he is but Cashman never loses deals where prospects are involved. At least I don’t remember any off hand. I mean trade with the Yankees if they have he best offer but it’s kind of like trading with Danny Ainge in basketball. Chances are he’s getting the best player in the deal and not giving up much.
-
SRF, Borucki, and Pannone (when he gets back). Finally starting to see some pitching prospects in AAA. I don't miss the Mat Latos, Roberto Hernandez, etc, AAA rotations.
-
I actually don't mind trading within the division, but would rather deal with Dombrowski than Cashman.
-
Man do we really want to trade with Brian Cashman though? As much as I like our front office, I don't recall a bad trade Cashman has made in years. If we got Frazier for Happ (which I don't think we will), I'd be more afraid of why Frazier was traded rather than excited about getting him. Go to the teams desperate to make the playoffs. Brewers, M's, Angels, etc. Droughts = desperation. We should know that better than anyone.
-
Law never hedges. So if he dislikes a prospect, that prospect sucks and has no chance of being anything. Of course, being the self righteous douche that he is, he can't acknowledge that players can make adjustments, get stronger, etc, etc, etc. So his 'losses' look really bad, as they should. I'd rather appreciate Law's douchiness from afar, meaning I don't want to read his stuff. I honestly don't know why people value his opinion on prospects at all.
-
Sano with a 40% k%. Damn. He's always stuck out a lot but he's gone off the deep end now.
-
Both Alford and Tellez were removed from today’s game after one AB. I doubt they are getting called up. Simultaneous injuries?

General 2018 Blue Jays Discussion Thread
glory replied to Bobthe4th's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Next year's team IMO to start the season will be: CA Martin, 1B Smoak, 2B Travis, SS Tulo, 3B Solarte, RF Grichuk, CF Pillar, LF Hernandez, DH Morales. With Diaz, Pompey (if he's alive...since he's out of options), and Maile on the bench. Jays are going to hold off on calling anyone up for service time reasons. By mid season (post super 2 cut off and post trade deadline) we will see the prospects come up. Smoak and Pillar will be traded at next year's deadline, Martin will either be traded with all of his money eaten up (vetrin presents for team in a playoff run) or let go, as will Tulo if he's healthy. In other words, this team is going to be bad and boring until mid 2019 at the earliest. Then 2020 will hit, and we will be fapping. -

Why and when did Conforto fall out of favor with the Mets? Dude was a beast last year before he got hurt.
-
Kevin Smith's supposed to be a legit SS defensively so if his bat is for real, then man time to get excited.
-
Atlanta needs a 3B and AA has a history with JD. Unfortunately AA is probably better now having worked under Friedman for a few years, but still, ATL has a deep system. Get a couple of solid depth pieces for two months of JD and it's probably a win at this point. Unless he's so bad the rest of the way that they could offer him the QO and hope he comes back for a year.
-
Grandy: old and declining Pearce: injured JD: injured Happ: Very good Estrada: meh Garcia: Trash Oh: Good Axford: Good Clippard: meh Loup: OK Yeah seriously, outside of Happ, the Jays won't get much for anyone. Still time for JD to come back and go in beast mode but probably won't get much for him at this point. Hope they look for deals for Smoak and Pillar but I don't think they will.

Please call up Vlad Guerrero Jr. Thread
glory replied to GodDonaldson's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
They can hold him down in 2018 since he's been in AA for two months and still needs to work on his D. But holding back next year too, when he will most likely brutalize AAA? Not a good look. Call him up May/June 2019, and get that extra year. Use 2019 as a year where he can get some big league experience, then enjoy 2020-25 (hopefully more than that).
