  1. Four years for a reliever is risky. Good for Cecil.
  2. Just agree to take Harrison in the deal as well. Pirates will be so happy that they saved money it would probably only take Pompey to get it done.
  3. Is it even possible for Smoak to decline? He's so bad already how much worse can it get?
  4. Might have been posted already but reason to be optimistic about this signing even a little bit or FG craziness? http://http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2016-hitter-contact-quality-report-al-first-base-and-dh/
  5. His name is Trollosi for a reason.
  6. Adam Eaton would be an amazing pick up but would cost a lot.
  7. The FA market is so bad that absorbing Bruce's salary and hoping he has a Trumbo type of contract year might be more reasonable than signing free agents for multiple years. Slim pickings would be an understatement when describing the FA market. Trades would make sense but don't know if this regime wants to move prospects unless it's someone like Pompey.
  8. The free agent market blows. Suggesting better players may not be possible unless we are suggesting trades.
  9. Pagan would be a solid short term option in LF. Other than 2015 he's been a pretty solid player for many years. But age 35 is a negative.
  10. Yeah I don't see the Jays giving up a pick and overpaying for Fowler. I'm guessing Bruce, Pearce/Rodriguez to platoon with Smoak, and then maybe another small trade for a OF we haven't considered.
  11. Smoak's not Canadian, so Morneau is better.
  12. Man I hope Atkins trades Carrera before he has 500 plate appearances next season (Gibbster loves him).
  13. Agree. Appreciate what they did from 2010-16, but realize that is not the production you will be seeing from them from 2017-2021. Move on.
  14. 4/80 was more than fair. Good luck whenever you end up Edwin. Jays tried. No one should be criticized when Edwin moves on, but I suspect Rogers will.
  15. Makes Puig look a bit more attractive as a trade target, but also makes him more valuable. Wonder what it would take to get him.
  16. Two months ago, probably Ryan Tepera and a turkey sandwich. With a new front office in AZ, they might be a tad smarter.
  17. No starting prospects in AAA means they will prioritize depth again. So my guess is Biagini starts in AAA much like Hutch did last year.
  18. Official now. Only Hellickson and Walker accepted.
  19. Yeah you'll get no argument from me that Gibbons doesn't know s*** about using a pen, whether Cecil or anyone else, but he was using Cecil in a high leverage trio with Storen and Osuna to begin the season at the very least....just seemed to lose faith pretty quickly. Gibby definitely uses small sample sizes to determine his faith for whatever reason.
  20. Gibbons was using him in high leverage spots in April, and when Cecil started blowing games, then his usage changed. Gibby lost faith in him.
  21. Hellickson accepted it.
  22. Sign Reddick, Pearce, and Pagan, and I think there's enough talent spread around to put the team in the 85 win area. If Gibbons finally learns how to use a pen and maybe the Jays get lucky in one run games finally, then it's possible. That's all you can really ask for given how short sighted the previous regime was. If the 2017 team can contend and continue to build up the farm, then it's a success.
  23. Even if he accepted the QO and went back on the market next year, what team is going to offer a 37 year old more than a two year deal? If he gets a three year offer this winter, he should take it and run.
  24. Calling him a douche isn't s***ing on his accomplishments. That's just his personality.
