  1. When a scrappy white guy flips the bat and shows off, is it ok?
  2. Green, Betances, Robertson, Chapman. Yep, Twins ain't winning this.
  3. Lol. This game will end at 1 am.
  4. Not going to lie, I want the Yankees to win. The Twins bore me to tears, and the Yankees are the much better team. Good for baseball if the Yanks advance as well. I expect Cleveland to beat either of these teams anyway.
  5. Man, Chad Green's numbers are sick.
  6. Severino was hit pretty hard there. Might have been nerves. Stroman takes the mound come playoff time like a boss. Makes me appreciate the swag a bit.
  7. The media will lose their collective s*** if the Yankees lose this game. They were such a better team than the Twins but one game anything can happen.
  8. Still annoys me that the 2nd WC team is as s***** as the Twins are. Damn the AL outside of the top 4 teams sucked ass this year.
  9. Agreed but when it looked like the comp pick was slipping away and Jose looked like the best OF option available, they pretty much had no choice. Wish he had one more good year in him, but at least it was only a one year deal.
  10. I didn't see the interview, but wasn't he asked about trade rumors or his future with the team? Saying he wants to stay and that he went to management to express that makes him look good and takes the pressure off him as far as having to answer that question every week during the winter. I think we will hear this talk all winter but it will lead no where and JD will start at 3B in 2018 with no extension.
  11. They are going to have to pay JD enough for him not to want to test free agency. It will have to be an overpay. I don't know what an overpay would look like, depends how much Josh thinks he can get, and he seems like the type who wants to get as much as he can (rightfully so). I don't see them agreeing to a number before the 2018 season.
  12. This season is finally over. Man, after the horrid start in April, it felt like this season would never end. Just one more month and we can talk about the hot stove. Sucks not making the playoffs. I was starting to get used to it, but build a small window and you'll get a small window.
  13. Yep. Either sign him to an extension or trade him. Shapiro is too smart for this, he just has to convince Rogers.
  14. The Jays do need a 2B (I ain't trusting Travis again), but no thanks to Wong. Gyorko is necessary to have a capable 3b to replace JD, but the rest of the return better be players with more long term value/upside. Reyes would be my pick. Maybe the Cardinals are sleeping on him because of his injury. Shapiro was the GM in Cleveland when they got Carrasco. He knows what's up.
  15. Gyorko + Reyes + an outfielder (Piscotty or Grichuk)? I mean that's the closest the Jays will get to a deal that fits both short and long-term objectives. Gives them a 3B to replace JD, an outfielder to fill one of those spots, and then a young starter with six years of control to put in the rotation.
  16. Alex Reyes, Jedd Gyorko (we need someone to play third), Magneuris Sierra, and Sandy Alcantara. Buying low on Reyes could work out like Shapiro trading for Carrasco back in the day. I think he's still recovering from tommy john, so he might miss part of the year, but whatever. Let him heal and then see what happens. Pitchers are time bombs anyway, might as well go with the one with the highest upside. Stick Gyorko at third so you have someone competent there, and then you have some prospects to fill out the farm.
  17. Seriously. Pitching prospects are ass. Maybe get one (Reyes) but load up on position players aside from that.
  18. Yeah seriously, the 2nd WC this year is a joke. The AL has four great teams, and The Twins are the only team not in those four that was over .500 this year. That's awful. The whole league was trash.
  19. JD isn't going to give up free agency to sign early when he's still an elite player. Dude will wait a year and get his money a year from now.
  20. Figures the Jays would start playing well late enough to f*** up their draft positioning.
  21. Brian Cashman could write a damn book on how to retool based on the trades he made in the past 2-3 years. Didi, Hicks, Castro, Green, Chapman, Gray, Frazier.....damn. Can't hate on them. Seems like the moment Steinbrenner's kids wanted to go below the lux tax, suddenly Cashman became a wizard.
  22. I want to see great baseball in the post season, and while the Twins have some good young talent, they aren't on the level of their counterparts. Even the Yankees are a complete rung above them and they are the other WC team. What's good for baseball is the Yankees becoming good again. The league needs marketable stars in big markets and they can sell Aaron Judge as a star. It sucks, but if the Jays are not in it, then might as well root for baseball to prosper. That won't happen with the Twins/Astros ALCS.
  23. Damn I missed this one. Hope a full video pops up for the curtain call.
  24. Yeah I am looking at the Cards as well. They have a lot of OF's. Grichuk kinda fits what the Jays looked at with Smoak with his batted ball profile. Wouldn't surprise me if they tried for him. What do the Cards need, relief pitching? Maybe sell high on someone like Tepera. No clue what it would take, but the team needs to pull something out of their ass to fix the OF and free agency doesn't look very appealing.
  25. I don't know if he would have gotten three years, but I think he would have gotten at least two if he tested free agency for a similar AAV to what he signed for. Jays got a great deal here.
