  1. How much value is lost if Vlad became a FA after 2024 instead 2025? Or, how much value is gained if he's the DH in 2018 when they could stick a guy like Pearce or Grandy there? Is 19 year old Vlad that much better than those two, and if so, is he so much better that's it's worth losing a year of service time? If the Jays signed him to a ten year contract tomorrow, then call his ass up tomorrow. But if the freakin Yankees are holding their talent back to manipulate service time, then I'd rather not be the "good org" and call him up early. The system is broken and unfair to players, but use it to your advantage. If the Jays were a legit threat to the Yankees or Red Sox right now, then I'd agree with you. BUt the 2nd WC? Damn, release Morales and we could win that s***, without Vlady.
  2. The Yankees actually had a need at 2B and still kept Torres down intentionally so they could get an extra year out of him. The Jays don’t have a 3B hole as long as JD is here, and they clearly intend on playing Morales’ fat declining ass everyday because of the money he is owed so it makes no sense to call Vlad up now. We can win the 2nd WC without him, and the 2nd in itself is not much of an accomplishment. I’d rather have the extra year of Vlad when the team might actually be good enough to really contend.
  3. Morales moved the runner over. That’s why he plays everyday. Vetrin mindset.
  4. I said before I don’t care what his numbers look like I’m always nervous when Tempura is pitching in a close game. Oh should be the set up man.
  5. Call him up for what? To give the team a fighting chance at a 2nd WC? They'd have that same chance without him. Just dump Morales and it will be fine. But 2019? He should be the starting 3b.
  6. Martin mentoring Jansen in 2019 would be a good way to utilize Martin's final season with the Jays (in his current contract). Actually works out pretty well with the catching depth in AAA. Jansen looks like he can be a starting catcher, and McGuire always projected as a backup, so that's 12 years of cheap production right there.
  7. Yeah the Jays are probably exhausted. Try to steal at least one of the next two and get some rest.
  8. Yeah, the way I viewed Jose was "douchebag but he is our douchebag". Can't deny how great he was and the excitement the playoffs runs brought to the city. He'll be remembered very fondly.
  9. Let Santos throw 100 pitches. Don’t care. Game’s over already.
  10. Can it rain now? It’s an official game. Don’t subject us to 4 more innings of this s***.
  11. How was that a knock on Gibbons? I’m saying he won the first game so he should just get this 2nd game over with without injury. Live to fight another day. A split is what we needed. The Indians aren’t the Royals.
  12. Damn I knew Santos would give up some runs but over 2-3 innings. He’s straight trash.
  13. Just let Santos and Ramirez finish this game. Save the rest of the pen. That's why winning the first one was so huge.
  14. Ramirez destroyed that pitch. The Biagini SP experiment doesn't look very good. I know we need Sp depth and all but this guy is a reliever.
  15. DSJ, another player on the 40 man that is already better than Morales.
  16. He’s in the lineup playing 1B for game two. Although releasing Morales would be amazing.
  17. The 2nd WC is going to be up for grabs. No team really has a decided edge over the other between the Jays, Angels, and Mariners, while the Twins are probably ass but can beat up on shittier teams over 50 times this year so can’t rule them out either. The A’s being decent will help the Jays a bit since the West won’t be a cake walk aside from the bloody Rangers. It’s funny in a cruel way that all those teams will be fighting for the chance to play one game on the road against Sale or Severino. Oh well, it’s still the playoffs in the record books.
  18. Morales' three year deal is going to feel longer than Vernon's deal.
  19. THe Twins should have walked Morales. Too dangerous to pitch to him. Luckily for the Twins he struck out.
  20. Diaz thought that was ball 4 from the looks of it, but Hernandez clearly swung. Diaz should have run anyway. Not sure why he would stop.
  21. A 10 year deal would cover his 20's. I'm down for that. Team options for years 11 and 12. Risky (as all players are risky over a ten year period, even the can't miss types) but it buys out what should be his best years.
  22. Has a higher wRC+ (83) than Edwin (60) now. Gotta love short sample size.
  23. Twins have 50+ games against the trio of dog poop in the Central. They will end the season over .500 (unless they turn into poop themselves), but they may not be gifted a wild card spot like last year.
