    Yeah that's the sad part. This new regime actually gave an honest effort to extend the small ass window AA gave them, and the players just got old. It was predictable, but I still held out hope that we could defy age for a bit longer. In hindsight, a freefall after 2016 looked pretty darn likely the moment the Price/Tulo trades happened. AA left a hero rather than staying long enough to become the villain. The Toronto fan base is stupid enough to buy it. Oh well. As long as Rogers let Shatkins do their thing for many years to come, I'm fine with it.

    Yep, I said at the time, AA got out to avoid dealing with the aftermath of the short window he created. The way he structured the Martin deal was pretty much the definition of "the s***** part of the deal will be someone else's problem". AA is smart as hell to have gotten out when he did. He'll get none of the blame for this.

    Old team that seems to have aged overnight and with nothing in the upper minors. My god it's going to be a long ass year.
  4. glory
    Pillar and Goins. Yeah, Britton's got this.
  5. glory
    Shocked I tell you.
  6. glory
    If he doesn't hit into a DP or K, I'll be shocked.

    Joe Smith looking good at least.

    I kinda want to see how bad the Jays can be this season. Like, get the #1 pick overall type of bad. It would be awful to have to sit through for a year, but kind of interesting.

    The Jays tanking for Wiggins.

    I don't think Donaldson stays either. He doesn't seem like the type who will miss out on testing free agency to maximize his earnings and the front office doesn't seem like the type who will overpay him enough for him to not test free agency. I think if he is traded at all it will be at the deadline in 2018. They won't trade him before that.

    Conforto would look so good on the Jays.
  13. glory
    That thought entered my mind too. Trade Estrada for 'spects, and then sign him back in the off-season (assuming he's still good).
  14. glory
    Rogers won't allow a rebuild. More realistically, just trade the guys who are not going to be around in 2018 (Jose, Estrada, Liriano) and try to replenish a bit more of the farm. The Jays won't be trading Donaldson unless he publicly demands it. They aren't going to f*** up the cash cow they know they have if the team is competitive. They will have to find a way to retool for 2018.

    I wants Atkins to go full on Brian Cashman in July. I don't want to see the Jays go on a run just to finish .500. Either be really good or really bad. If they end up really bad, then do what you have to do.

    By the end of the season we might be yearning for that draft pick that we lost with Jose re-signing. Could have signed like 3 players for the money Jose got, and given the team more depth.

    Martin is going to bat high in the order because of vetrin presentz. It would be nice to have more hitters that could bat ahead of him in Gibby's eyes but I guess we are not there yet.

    Well let's be real, the team on paper is about 85 win tier, and that's assuming the old guys don't decline. The team itself is old as s***. As much as I want this team to make the playoffs again, eventually this core will get to a breaking point where they are just too old to contend and JD isn't enough to carry them. They might be there already. I just hope that if they right the ship and make a run, it's a real run. If not, there's a damn good haul to trade at the deadline if they struggle. A Brian Cashman type of trade deadline might be required. Then try again in 2018. (I'm not giving up on 2017 yet for all you crazy bastards who will go nuts with this trade deadline talk...)

    I wonder at what point do the bandwagon jumpers hop off, especially with the Raptors and Leafs both in the playoffs. Seats might be plentiful in the next month or so.
  20. glory
    Can't believe they actually started the season with him at 1b instead of trying to get an actual left fielder.
  21. glory
    AA is lounging on a sofa somewhere knowing he doesn't have to deal with the 3/60 left on Martin's deal.
  22. glory
    Gibbons thinks Martin is a better hitter than he actually is. Don't care about sample size, Pearce should be batting higher than both Martin and Smoak.
  23. glory
    Yeah, Barney can cover 2b and ss. Just call up Kelly to be a super utility player. Goins is trash.
  24. glory
    Goins at 3B today. Great.
  25. glory
    Morales at first, and Zeke in left for five games? You got it. /Gibby 1.0.
