    Pick him off waivers, why not?
  2. BlueRocky
    Dan Schulman wants Yan Gomes
  3. BlueRocky
    I'm referring to 2009-2011 before he was good.

    Regardless what happens today, we'll get chances to rack up some W's the next two weeks. Next 13 games: vs Red Sox vs Red Sox vs Red Sox vs Orioles vs Orioles vs Orioles vs Orioles @ Marlins @ Marlins @ Red Sox @ Red Sox @ Red Sox @ Red Sox

    Giants also DFA’d Hunter Pence, though it’s not a great fit. Brock Holt also on waivers.

    Keep in mind Encarnacion was also waived and DFA’d. Give guys a chance.

    The Blue Jays were collectively one of the fastest teams by sprint speed. Even our catcher grades above average. https://www.mlb.com/news/fastest-mlb-teams-2020

    The organization doesn't need to sell Rowdy Tellez anything.

    I would platoon Daniel Vogelbach for now. Daniel Vogelbach 2019 VS Righties: 126 wRC+, .355 wOBA, .225/.359/.485, OPS .844 2019 VS Lefties: 68 wRC+, .270 wOBA, .161/.288/.315, OPS .602 Rowdy Tellez 2019 VS Righties: 80 wRC+, .293 wOBA, .208/.283/.420, OPS .702 2019 VS Lefties: 114 wRC+, .342 wOBA, .270/.317/.513, OPS .831 (smaller sample) 2020 VS Righties: 87wRC+, .297 wOBA, .200/.268/.460, OPS .728 2020 VS Lefties: 148 wRC+, .388 wOBA, .357/.400/.500, OPS .900 The platoon would be equivalent to a 120 wRC+ bat. Number are pretty consistent for Rowdy, mashes lefties while below average vs righties. Vogelbach mashes righties and can't hit lefties.

    Yep

    At the very least he's a platoon option with Vlad and Tellez. We can also do a platoon on our DH spot. Don't go judging Vogelbach based on an 18 game sample, that means absolutely nothing in a regular baseball season. Look at the larger body of work when he broke out in 2019 and had 30 homers.

    I wouldn't option Tellez, I would use him as your pinch hitter and occasional matchup 1B/DH. Basically every AB Drury and Panik are getting should be redistributed for Shaw, Tellez, and Vogelbach. The Blue Jays right now are 27TH in the MLB in OBP and 20th in walks. 90% of our dingers are solo shots. This has led to 23rd in runs scored despite being 9th in home runs. We need guys that can get on base and occasionally launch a baseball to the moon. The acquisition makes sense to me and we basically got him for nothing.
  16. BlueRocky
    Point to me which season Rowdy Tellez made the MLB All Star team. I'll wait.
  17. BlueRocky
    2019 Daniel Vogelbach (March 1-July 31), 399 PA (100 Games): .234/.363/.505, OPS .868 and 132 wRC+ 16.5 BB% to 24.6 K% .364 WOBA, .271 ISO 77 hits, 64 RBI, 25 HR, 14 doubles He had a strong first half last season and made the All Star team, then fizzled out a bit. But we got him for a couple of Swiss Chalet coupons and a bag of used balls. The dude is a good power hitter and OBP machine, he's NOT a free agent until 2025.
  18. BlueRocky
    Are you guys serious? We just got Vogelbach for CASH and nobody is happy? He has one of the lowest O-Swing and highest BB% in baseball on the tier of Cavan Biggio, with 60-grade raw power (avg exit velo 88.9 MPH, max 113.1 MPH) T-Mobile Park has not been kind to him, he had a 117 wRC+ on the road last season and 126 wRC+ against RHP. This is a massive upgrade over our bench fodder. He's also an average to slight below average 1st baseman, can't say the same yet about our other two.
  19. BlueRocky
    He’s fine as a mop up guy. We’re just spoiled with an elite bullpen and Waggy sticks out like a sore thumb.

    Remember fans were crying about Norm God’s contract? Good times. Maybe, just maybe.... Masai knows what he’s doing.
  21. BlueRocky
    I would consider bringing up Simeon or Manoah for a spot start, it will have close to no impact in terms of their service time. It wouldn’t interrupt the BP, and would be good to get their debuts out of the way. There’s only so much you can work on pitching to Jonathan Davis and Forrest Wall at Rochester. Hatch Buckets can fill a spot, but we need two starters. Please no Waguespack, I rather see Patrick Murphy.
  22. BlueRocky
    1. Hyun-Jin Ryu 2. Chase Anderson 3. Tanner Roark 4. ?? 5. ??? IL: Nate Pearson, Matt Shoemaker, Trent Thornton Options: Anthony Kay, Thomas Hatch, Jacob Waguespack, Julian Merryweather, Patrick Murphy, TJ Zeuch, Sean Reid-Foley, Simeon Woods-Richardson, Alek Manoah

    Kawhi left for this clown show. He went from having a whole country behind him and potential dynasty, to splitting fanbases with another city and this joke franchise. Championship with the Clippers was never gonna happen. He “wanted to be home” so badly that he only signed a 3 year contract with player option, and used Drake’s house to recruit “Playoff P” to join him in LA. Then his sister gets herself put in jail and murders an elderly women at a Casino by trying to rob her purse. Smh. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/09/09/us/kawhi-leonard-sister-charged/index.html He even had the audacity to ask Masai to trade Siakam + Fred + picks for Paul George just to get him to stay. Such a shame. Enjoy your annual 1st round exit.
