filthy movement on those last 2 knucklers.

If you were to look at team evaluations with Major league team+farm system included the Jays would easily be top 10 right now top 5 even. If a GM had to pick a team to go to without factoring ownership, payroll and all that top 5 would probably be: Astros Pirates Cubs Blue Jays Cardinals/Red Sox/Giants -
Donaldson Trade, Tulo trade, Devon Travis trade, Martin signing were 4 of the best moves of any team this year. The current team has the most talent of any team in Baseball and you want to say that it doesn't matter depending on what might happen in a 5 game series? What more impressive is this team has a lot of guys who seem like great teammates and good character. Its really impressive that a team this talented has those traits as well.

Come on....

I will say that last part is very true. Considering we were hearing names like Kenny Williams and Terry Ryan etc.. Shapiro would be an excellent hire. Definitely sounds like he has been offered the job, now its up to him to take it or not.
-
I don't but just thought it was an interesting thing to think about. Donaldson would be only the 2nd MVP of the franchise.
-
I dunno just seems weird to do with what has happened this year. If a new GM was brought in I'd think the players wouldn't be happy as well.
-
Evidence he's a better baseball mind than Alex Anthopolous though? AA has bulit the best team in the AL and maybe all of baseball this season. He's had his bad moments but so has every GM and the good far outweighs the bad.
-
Well he's not an owner. If he's the president of Business Operations I love this move 100%. If he wants to meddle with the baseball operations then I am less thrilled. Now if he lets AA be the GM and manager the players etc... and Shapiro overhauls the facility including bringing in sports medicine analytics and improves that side of the franchise I would be very happy.
-
Well first of all he hasn't come here yet. What if Shapiro brings his own GM in and AA leaves? Don't see how thats exciting as a blue jays fan tbh.
-
Interesting. Not sure how to feel about this. If he is strictly here for business I think its a good move but at this point I think AA deserves to have full control over baseball operations.
-
Had an interesting thought the other day. If Donaldson were to win MVP he would obviously get more in arb. maybe 10 million more over the course of 3 years than he would of got. But would the revenue of the Blue Jays having a player win MVP be worth more than the extra money Donaldson would get in arb.? What's everyone think about this?
-
Lol some people act like that play cost the Jays the World Series. Since the Deadline they had 4 f***ing loses. Can't win them all.
-
Hendriks wasn't great today either
