  1. With how much Sanchez was handed without earning a single thing (a starter role in the bigs, the 8th inning role coming off the DL, etc), I think the GM that values him the most is the one who currently has him. I don't think he'll get as much value as AA wants in a trade, and that means we likely keep him until he Arencibia's his way off the team somehow.
  2. Considering the Jays scored one run off him in a game they easily could have scored more, I'm not too upset. He's an ass. That's the type of s*** he does. The Jays had a chance to shut him up with their bats and they failed. Oh well.
  3. Trade for/sign a good 4th OF (Jarrod Dyson? Have the Royals soured on him?) and put Pompey in LF full-time. Non-tender Saunders and bring him back on a minor league deal. Trade Revere. The pitching is what scares me. I don't want the Jays to re-sign Price or anyone similar. Rogers has a tendency to drop payroll depending on which direction the wind is heading in a particular season so don't want to get saddled with too many big ass contracts and then have to try dumping them a few years later. Go on the mid-tier FA market or more trades. With this offense all they really need is a bunch of innings eaters, and then hope Stroman remains the front of the rotation starter and Hutchison bounces back. Turning Osuna into a reliever still pisses me off, even though he was good this year. It's going to be nearly impossible to get any value out of him as a starter in 2016 unless they don't care about his innings. They'll have to move him back to the pen after 100 IP as a starter, maybe less depending on how his arm feels. What a waste.
  4. Get a manager that knows who his best relievers are (combined with the random luck of the game), and the team's record in one run games would improve. No small ball required.
  5. 2016 will be Bautista's free agent year. I'm not sure how being a 1B or a RF will change his value, if it does at all, but in his mind, would he want to move positions in his final season before the last big pay day of his career? I don't think he'll mind playing 1B occasionally, but full time might be a tough sell. I agree they should try to move him to 1B, though. His defense in the outfield has become a huge issue. Whether he agrees to it is the problem.
  6. Bringing in a guy who can't strike anyone out into a game with a runner on 2nd base was idiotic. At least with Lowe there was a tiny possibility of a strike out. With Sanchez, it was going to be put in play, and if we were lucky it would have went to a fielder. It didn't. Other than that, I was fine with the game as well, including bringing in Fatty to pinch hit for Goins. It's a shame that the two guys who would expect to make contact, Navarro and Revere, couldn't do it.
  7. Horrible calls on Revere and Navarro. Not surprising though. MLB had an agenda and they got what they wanted in the end.
  8. Rain delay helps the Jays. Take Sanchez out and the Royals take Davis out.
  9. Bring in a contact reliever with a runner in scoring position. Gibbons is amazing.
  10. Nice Gibby bring in the guy who can't strike anyone out with a runner on 2nd. Nothing bad can happen.
  11. Jays have 2 more innings to score or it is over. That's assuming Price even keeps the game at 2-1.
  12. There is no way in hell an ump would apologize for a missed call unless it was something like that ump who got the call wrong at 1st on that no hitter a few years back. Umpires have egos as big as Jose Bautista's. They won't apologize for anything. Volquez is full of s***.
  13. Yeah, Price in the playoffs (FIP be damned) isn't something I'd be super confident about. Estrada and Stroman are definitely the two top guys for the team this post season.
  14. Price is due for a damn win in the post season as a starter.
  15. I think someone will give him a three year deal. Whether he takes the risk of declining the QO is the question. He definitely seems like a guy that Dave Stewart will overpay.
  16. Yeah, qualifying Estrada is a no brainer. He won't accept coming off the season and post season that he's had. Even if he does, it's a one year deal when the Jays have practically no SP depth. No lose situation.
  17. Watching the FS1 post game, and Pete Rose is asking for a right hook to the face by mocking Frank Thomas.
  18. Estrada was huge today. Keep prolonging the season guys. Not ready for the Jays season to end.
  19. Need to get 3 starters somehow, and they have to be good. AA has a lot of work to do.
  20. This is destiny. The Jays were destined to avenge the 1985 loss the same exact way. I'm not sure if the Baseball God's knew about John Gibbons when they made this scenario happen, it's highly possible that's Gibby's stupidity far outweighs the power of fate, but let me believe for a few moments before reality strikes.
  21. In the grand scheme of things, was Osuna in the bullpen for a season really worth it? Stretching him out will probably take two years to do effectively, and chances are any stretching out will happen in the Majors, so they'd be killing two years of additional control for development years.
  22. Fair enough. Replace with: a team that makes the playoffs a s*** ton of years in a row.
  23. Given the Tulo acquisition, it wouldn't surprise me if AA targets Votto. $20M a year for everyone!
  24. Well, dynasty meaning they'll make the playoffs for a long, extended period of time. Obviously winning the WS depends on many factors some of which unrelated to talent.
  25. DeGrom, Syndergaard, Harvey, Matz, Wheeler. Damn, the Mets are going to be a dynasty if those dudes stay healthy.
