    I'd like to make a correction. Neris is fantastic at chirping.

    "a bundle of sticks" is the shittiest chirp I've ever heard. How do you get mad at someone who's intelligence is that low?

    What is your problem? Biggio is a quality bench bat. Utility players typically get 350-500 PAs a season depending on injuries and Biggio fills that role nicely. After a horrible start to the year, he's hit and played well and contributed to the team. End of story. 117 wRC+ from May 17th to Sept 27th - and he doesn't have huge platoon splits at all.

    It would be terrible for their egos and feelings, which is probably more important than results (says the union).

    Man did Miggy ever fall off a cliff after 2014 (age 33). Didn't he have a lot of plantar fasciitis issues or something?

    you and only you I suspect.

    They don't arrive via horse and buggy...

    Donaldson is hitting .160 this year. His douche level should be dropping like a rock and he should be grateful he's still getting paid to play baseball. Unsurprising that it hasn't.

    Wouldn't players who the Jays may still need at some point go down to Dunedin and continue to train and stay in game ready shape at their training complex?

    I think the location of Rogers Center boosts it up. Although it's still a 'trip', a quick trip up the 400 to Vaughan where I jump on the subway and cruise the rest of the way to Union Station, followed by a short walk seems really stress free and easy for me and the family. It's right in the heart of the city, so casuals can drop in and there's always lots to do for the kids nearby and lots of places to eat/drink. I also love taking the train from Barrie to Union. You hear a lot of people complain about stadiums built out in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by parking lot. I think that's a huge negative.

    I have to agree with Joe. Based on those few photos, Vlad is still not turning the barrel and getting behind the ball like he was in 2021. That steep, hit down, create backspin swing isn't a great approach. Swing like Barry Bonds and Ted Williams FFS.

    This updated ranking has the Rogers Centre 23rd, ahead of Yankee Stadium. Most lists put us somewhere in the 20's. It will be interesting to see where we land after the lower level reno. https://ftw.usatoday.com/lists/best-mlb-stadiums-ranked-2023-edition-baseball-ballparks My point being that it's not noticeable enough for me to complain about or suggest it's awful. I certainly thought Camden and PNC were absolute beauties and I liked the history of Fenway and Wrigley (did a tour there - didn't catch a game). Philly, Cincy, Cleveland, Washington? Meh - all solid in their own right, but I wasn't like "oh wow - these are so much better than the Rogers Centre".

    I've been to Boston, NY (Yankee Stadium), Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cincy, Washington, Cleveland and Philly and I haven't once thought to myself that the Rogers Centre was a s***** stadium experience. I think the improvements this year are fantastic and can't wait to see them rebuild the lower level.
  14. Brownie19
    Yes - that may be one of the least controversial statements made on this board.

    I was an avid White Sox fan from about 1991 through 2014 before officially cutting ties with them - so I think they're down to 11 fans now.

    Cool story - this guy looks absolutely filthy. Where is Ricky T to be 'that guy' for us in the playoffs? https://blogs.fangraphs.com/hes-thrown-one-major-league-inning-is-orion-kerkering-already-one-of-the-phillies-best-relievers/ This guy could have a K-Rod type impact in the playoffs as a rookie.
  17. Brownie19
    I had the same experience. I loved my trip to Boston and would love to go back.
  18. Brownie19
    Will Acuna challenge Jeff Bagwell's record for the most run scored in the modern era? Needs 9 more to tie Bags at 152. 40/70 season with almost 150 runs scored, 100 RBI's and a .330+ average is f***ing insanity. I love it. No idea how this guy cut his K% from the mid 20's to like 11% this year.

    I know we've seen catchers go from being terrible framers to top notch framers in a single offseason, so unfortunately there's a good chance we traded away Yadi. I'm curious to see where he ends up with the bat. It's been a lot better this year than I expected.
  20. Brownie19
    I mean - if you ask Buck Martinez, I think there's a 90% chance he says pitching & defense wins championships...
  21. Brownie19
    Aren't the pitches where the circle is filled in actually considered strikes? It's a ball when the circle remains empty. That's a s***** video. I have to think Biggio is #2 in baseball - or at least Top 5.

    4th quarter this week was much better Spank!

    Interesting that everyone considers him a platoon bat. Career wRC+: v. LHP - 102 v. RHP - 105 And it's no different this year...
  24. Brownie19
    That would be great, but Bo's career ISO is only .188. Vlad's is only .210. I don't think we'll ever see Biggio's ISO above .200. If we do - he's going to be a stud and a fulltime starter.
  25. Brownie19
    That all sounds great Jonn - but the likelihood of this happening is probably in the 10% range. You'd be selling low on Varsho and taking a huge risk on KK, who'll probably command a multi year deal, is incredibly injury prone and entering his age 34 season. I love KK, but your proposal just doesn't seem plausible. This team needs some stability in CF and Varsho projects to be a very solid CFer moving forward. What most are suggesting isn't bold at all - it's logical.
