  1. Justin Smoak turning into a good player is awesome to see.
  2. Man, if Bolsinger can get through five with the lead, then count your damn blessings. Meatballs for everyone.
  3. Gibby won't play Coghlan over Zeke, even though he should.
  4. If the Jays can keep winning while Zeke stinks it up, that's the best case. By the time Pearce gets back, Gibby might actually play him everyday rather than throw his golden boy out there.
  5. Man I joked about bringing Osuna in, but Grilli is probably the last guy I would have used. Hope he can bounce back today.
  6. We live in a world where I see Morales playing over Smoak in an NL park and I'm disappointed. Never expected that before the season.
  7. Yeah, they either need to be out of it, or right in the thick of it. A .500 record where they are within 4-5 games of a playoff spot with a number of teams to pass is a terrible place to be.
  8. Retool: take another stab at contending in 2018, then deal with the consequences after that if JD walks (or extend him) Rebuild: Trade JD now and starting stripping the roster of vets in order to start a long-term rebuild In theory, I think the rebuild makes more sense mainly because I don't think the prospects will be ready to take over in 2019 if JD left, but this is Rogers we are talking about. They can sell hope and .500 finishes or see attendance/revenue plummet for a number of years with a rebuild. I know which direction they'd rather go.
  9. I'm expecting a retool over a rebuild. Along the lines of what Cashman did for the Yankees last year. I wouldn't mind a rebuild, but don't see this ownership agreeing to it. We will probably see a retool where they get assets back for their impending free agents (Estrada, Jose if he agrees, Smith, Liriano), and then taking another stab at it next year.
  10. Ah, forgot about the "can't offer the QO twice" rule in the CBA. That's makes the decision even easier. If the Jays are out of it, then move Acetrada ASAP. Then try to re-sign him in the winter.
  11. Trade Estrada and then try to re-sign him in the winter (if the Jays are out of it). Seems pretty cut and dry. The QO isn't going to scare teams off anymore, and what's the compensation now for losing a qualified FA? A 3rd rounder? No point keeping him if the season looks lost by July.
  12. Upton caught looking in game 1 of the ALCS or that pitch from Smith right down the middle of the plate called a ball: which was worse?
  13. -0.4 WAR, 46 wRC+ heading into tonight. Breakout potential.
  14. Gibbons proving once again that he's just good for putting out a lineup. When the hick has to think, he's a liability.
  15. Still too early, but if it turns out that they guessed right about him, then they deserve a s*** ton of credit. That extension was a lot of faith in whatever analytics they look at. If it turns out that he's not a total scrub, then 2+1 at a cheap rate is pretty darn good. But again, I'll have to see this over a full season.
  16. Possible but he's out of options next year and plays for a team that has an asset hoarding front office. They kept f***ing Goins on the roster rather than risk losing him. Pompey has a shot. Whether he ends up being any good is a different story.
  17. What are the chances of going with a Pompey-Pillar-Alford outfield in 2018 (assuming Pompey isn't dead)? Or will they trade the gay hating bastard and go with Alford in CF?
  18. Did Alford get called up? It's floating around on Twitter, but none of the usual Jays reporters are reporting it.
  19. Woodman isn't a prospect until his K rate goes down, and he's already 22. Not a fan, but I guess he has time to improve. Bichette and Vladdy are the future, my friends.
  20. Don't need a complete tear down in baseball. If the Jays can keep being competitive while the farm system has time to catch up, then that's probably the best alternative. The issues with this team are still issues though.
