    Damn the media got me all excited about a Liriano trade and it's been crickets ever since.

    If Tulo is out for a while, then Refsynder will probably play 2b with Goins at short. Yes, Goins will never leave the organization. Ever.

    Kole Calhoun having a poor season. Time to buy low, Atkins.
  4. glory
    Sure, but getting a top pitching prospect and turning 5/98 (Tulo) into 2/48 (Reyes) is still pretty good even with Reyes' decline. They didn't even want Reyes, they just needed to take the salary to improve the trade offer. Imagine if the Jays traded Tulo prior to the 2017 season, got a top pitching prospect, and took back 28mm in deadweight to cover for the 4/78 Tulo had left on his contract. We'd all be pretty happy, I think.
  5. glory
    Yeah, they did the smart thing. Signed him to a huge deal, got his best remaining years, and then found a sucker to take the worst years of the contract at full price before having to suffer any of the decline. I mean, they took Reyes' carcass in return, but that was a small price to pay for getting out of a deal even Stevie Wonder could see being unmovable within two years.

    Based on the chart Davidi tweeted yesterday, Stroman was the ass, not the ump. The ejections were wrong, but Stroman had no business complaining as much as he did.
  7. glory
    Umpires are bad at their jobs, no question about that, but you don't think they hold grudges? Bautista in his prime was the biggest prick with umpires, I'm willing to bet they all knew that. Whether it changes the way they call a game is a different story, but trying to show how big their cocks are like police hiding behind a badge is pretty routine for them. But yes, s***** at their jobs is an understatement. It's consistently bad.

    Unfortunately, Stroman's antics yesterday will make the Jays a target for umps now. The league won't do s*** because Manfred thinks holding up 4 fingers for a walk is better for the game than changing one of the worst parts of it. Umps are like the police. Nothing will happen to them.

    That one extra win that the Jays would have right now with Price and Edwin instead of Happ/Estrada and Morales would be well worth the extra investment though.
  10. glory
    Getting Soler would be a nice gamble to take, but getting him for Liriano seems like a huge reach. The Royals GM can't be that desperate for a rental who has no command.
  11. glory
    Chris Cotillo is saying Vallot was removed from the game due to back spasms.
  12. glory
    Man imagine if Liriano was actually having a good year? He would have been a huge asset. There is interest in him despite pitching like ass for the last two years except for Aug/Sept 2016. Getting any type of value out of him in a trade would be great.
  13. glory
    Eat up the rest of Liriano's (and Estrada's) salaries and get a better return. The Jays are not trying to shed payroll. They are trying to get value back on players they will lose after this season. Money saved this season is meaningless to anyone except Rogers, and even they probably would have been ok with increasing payroll if the Jays were in the race right now given the attendance. Don't have to eat up any money for Smith since he's probably viewed as an asset by other teams, but if they have to swallow $4mm or whatever it is for Liriano in order to get a better return, then do it.

    Sparkman + another lottery ticket would work for me. Sparkman by himself, not so much.
  15. glory
    The moment I saw "Royals", I had a feeling it would be Sparkman. If he's involved, I hope he's not the only prospect.
  16. glory
    Facing the A's, Angels, and White Sox consecutively. Time to rack up some fake wins.
  17. glory
    He might have more of a beef than Stroman does (or thought he did).
  18. glory
    Yeah, looks like it will take a few more seasons like this one before Rogers concedes. I've heard American media talk about the Jays fan base in an envious way because it's young and loud. For a game that is leaning towards an older audience, that's huge. Don't think Rogers wants to lose that unless the team has no choice, so no wonder Shapiro is hyping up 2018.
  19. glory
    Watching the highlights of the home runs, and it's no wonder Rogers doesn't want to rebuild. Lively crowd and a lot of people considering it is a Wednesday night against a s***** team.
  20. glory
    Watch the team sell off their impending Fa's at the deadline, improve the outfield defence, get a capable stop gap at 2b, and go on a mini run.
  21. glory
    LOL, damn that was quick.
  22. glory
    Morales is so bad. Please find a taker for him and keep Pearce. Eat up all his salary, who cares.
  23. glory
    We don't have Sale, Quintana, and Eaton to trade. Stroman is the one guy we can move and get something like that back. Maybe Osuna. Sanchez when he's healthy can as well but this has pretty much been a lost year for him.
  24. glory
    It wouldn't surprise me at this point if they bring Estrada back on a smaller deal. Shapiro openly said he hates the free agent pitching market, and Estrada has been bad enough to where he might be affordable on a one year deal if they think he can bounce back next year.
