    Realistically, he's going to get $30M in his final year of arb. That AAV alone on a 12 year deal (for example) would be $360m. If his AAV ask is more in the $35-40m range, then his overall ask is likely more than $400m at this point, and he's likely wiling to wait for what Soto gets to determine how much more he thinks he can get.

    Time for Atkins to trade for Nootbaar.

    Yeah, I could believe Vlad turning down the Jays latest offer, but no chance he's traded before the season.

    I'm sure the Jays aren't avoiding qualified FA's, but Santander and Walker are a lot less desirable now with the QO attached. I don't think the Jays were going to be in on Teo anyway, but good for him to get that extra bit of security. He earned it.

    I didn't realize Cole was already 34. Giving him 5/180 at his age is a pretty big risk. I think the Yankees will end up doing it though.

    For Griffin Canning.

    This was a fun post season. Congrats to Teoscar for getting a ring. Now time for some Blue Jays news.

    Looks like Game 5 tomorrow night. At least push this to Game 6 so we could have a few more days of baseball this season.

    Morosi still getting air time on Canadian TV/media is insane given the Ohtani situation.

    I've heard baseball talked about more in the last week than I have in many years, whether it be in the national media or from the guys at the gym, at work, etc. Even if this ends up being a sweep, it was no where near the worst WS. Manfred still got what he wanted, just not the long series that everyone expected it to be. I'd take this over last year's snooze fest any day of the week. Hopefully the Yankees can at least extend this to go back to LA. I'm looking forward to Jays transactions but give me some good baseball for a few more days.

    Game 1 was an all timer, but this would be really disappointing if it ends in 4 or 5. It's a bullpen game tomorrow for the Dodgers, and then if the Yankees can survive that then it's Cole in Game 5, so maybe there's an outside chance of this at least going 6, but I'd be shocked at this point if it doesn't end by Wednesday. Sucks.

    Kinda had the feeling the Yankees were going to lay an egg out there tonight after watching that. Ice Cube's performance was great. Joe sucked the life out of that stadium.

    Hoping the Yankees win 2 of the next 3 to extend the series back to LA. A 4 or 5 game series would be pretty disappointing.

    Wow what a game. Horrendous move by Boone to go with Cortes in that spot.

    I don't know anything about that guy, and it remains to be seen what kind of impact (if any) he will provide the Jays young hitters, but last year at this time the Jays were promoting Donnie Baseball to have a more prominent role with the offense. Regardless of what happens next season, this hire is a breath of fresh air compared to that.

    I’m actually looking forward to Yankees/Dodgers. Should be a fun series. Their regular season series at Yankee Stadium felt like a playoff atmosphere. Same two teams for the World Series should have a crazy atmosphere.

    Pitching to a red hot Stanton with 1st base open and Jazz on deck was certainly a decision.

    Arenado has a full NTC I believe so might not be an easy trade to pull off, but yeah if it’s between trading for him or overpaying Bregman, then I’d easily take Arenado. Definitely think the Jays are going to trade prospects this winter. They have Bo for one more year, Clement on the bench, and their wet dream as far as prospects go in AAA (Kasevich - high contact, low K’s, no power, good defense). I could see Jimenez with no options remaining being moved. They can’t fill all their holes from free agency.

    This post season has been cinema. Great games, big moments, epic crowd reactions, lots of big home runs. Good stuff.

    Honestly the best thing they could do is probably try to take advantage of teams shedding payroll due to the Bally/Diamond bankruptcy and try to get talent that way. Other than Nimmala and Yesavage, there isn't a prospect they could move that anyone would be upset to lose, so really it could be open season on the farm and I don't think it would make much difference short or long term. Rooker is an obvious one due to the A's trading everybody, but I'm sure there are other teams that will be looking to move some arb eligible players who cost real money. Luis Robert who is coming off an awful year and is no longer cheap (15-20-20 left with the last 2 years being team options) so maybe you can get him at a discounted rate. Stuff like that. Otherwise it is hard to see an avenue to add enough talent on only $40-50m. They gave that much to IKF/KK/Turner/Green/Vogelbach last winter, and that was when the market was dead. If the market is more lively this time around then being able to spread that amount of money around with the amount of holes they have to fix will be impossible.
