  1. If they sign Fowler, I don't think they will have enough money to get anyone else based on what some in the media are projecting the payroll to be. Might be Fowler and then Upton, Pompey, and Carrera fighting it out for the other OF spot. Of course, if they add Fowler and then trade for my man Dyson, then that would fit into the budget just fine (keeping the Dyson dream alive).
  2. The key to Fowler's value over four years with the Jays is how he handles defence in left or right. If he's above average and his bat remains above average, then he's probably worth 4/72 even factoring decline as he gets older. Like I said I don't think he's a big fan of signing with the Jays unless he gets paid more than anyone else is willing to give him, so it depends on how much Shatkins likes him.
  3. For the past three seasons, Pearce's wRC+ against RHP have been 142 ('14), 107 ('15), and 118 ('16). The notion that he is a platoon player is ridiculous. He's a big league starting position player at first base. He just hasn't had a full season's worth of AB's either because of injury or not being given a chance. Start the man at 1B, try to keep him healthy, and soak in dat WAR.
  4. With Pearce and Morales on the roster, I'd be disappointed if they spent a big chunk of what they have left on Edwin at this point. Just move on and try to improve the outfield.
  5. Yeah I don't think Fowler is high on the Jays especially given he will have to move positions. Unless they overpay him, he's probably trying to leverage a better deal from another team.
  6. Jays offer to Fowler was around 4/60 according to Heyman. Fowler wants $18m a year. How high will the Jays go?
  7. That's an agent realizing he screwed over his client.
  8. God damn the Sportsnet comments section is a cesspool.
  9. Kill joy. That depresses me because I know you're right.
  10. If they sign Fowler, then I think going cheap with Carrera/Upton is a real possibility. Jays really need two OF's with Upton as the 4th of.
  11. Pearce with 500 plate appearances would be a beast. Give him an everyday role.
  12. Fowler, Dyson, and Pearce would be a sweet off-season. Step one with Pearce. Two more to go.
  13. f*** a platoon, Pearce can start at 1B. Justin Smoak can EAD.
  14. Signing Moreland only makes sense if Smoak is traded or released. Having both on the roster would be awful.
  15. The process will change over the next five years so that when Papi is voted in, no one will throw a stink about it.
  16. Dyson's projected arb salary is $2.5m by mlbtr. Getting him would give the Jays a ton of money to improve elsewhere as well. I have wanted the Jays to get him for 3 years now. The Royals did not use him as much as they should have.
  17. Dyson in a platoon with Upton would be great value. If you add Fowler and Dyson, that's a huge improvement. Don't know what it would cost but it might be the cheapest 3 WAR available.
  18. Yes. 100 times yes.
  19. Bautista might come back to the Jays, but I think the door has closed on Edwin. They gave him a good offer, he turned it down, and the Jays moved on. s*** happens.
  20. I don't watch it, but that wasn't my point.
  21. Man I hope the front office stops these guys from playing in the WBC. Does anyone even remember the results days after it happens? It's meaningless.
  22. Cot's has listed Morales' yearly salary totals at 10-11-12 and Guirrel's as 0.6-1-1.5-2.5-3.5-4.5-5.4 (with $3m signing bonus). Don't remember reading those breakdowns anywhere else so not sure how accurate it is.
  23. - Punched in the face/became a meme for life - Worst offensive season since breakout - Terrible defence - Two DL stints Damn, not a good look after that rant, Jose.
  24. Only reason I wouldn't want him back even at a reduced cost is they'd put him in RF. That man is a DH now, or a 1B if he's open to it. If they put him there, and the cost makes sense, then go for it.
