  1. What if you keep your best RP out of games you didn't bet on so he's 'fresh' for games you are betting on? What if you sit your star in games you aren't betting on so he's 'fresh' for the game you are betting on?
  2. He looks awesome. Also, I see comment of the year is already wrapped up for 2020.
  3. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/pitch-design-tyler-glasnow-can-be-more-elite-in-2020/ cool article on Glasnow, who I find to be one of the most fascinating pitchers in baseball. If nothing else, great .gifs.
  4. That ole wylie cowboy - you're probably right! Banging on trash cans definitely seems like something Gibby would come up with.
  5. It would be awesome to find out Montoyo was also cheating so we could fire him and re-hire Gibby.
  6. Who the f*** has time to write a poem about this situation?
  7. Good for JD. Happy for him. The Twins are gonna hit.
  8. The 5th year option is only worth $8M?
  9. Interesting. I'm not a fan of the 'swoosh' on the front of these new jerseys, but I must say I LOVE Toronto's current home jersey - and really - I love almost all the jerseys. Very few I cringe at from that list. What I didn't realize before reviewing that list was the variances in terms of the shoulder patches. Some teams have both shoulders covered, some only 1 and others without anything. I'm also not sure I realized that some teams have #'s on the front, while others didn't. Perhaps I'm not very observant...
  10. Boxy - if you're making a list, you can add me to it. The Rays make my hungry mouth water.
  11. I have a hard time suggesting the Astros should be stripped of their Championship - or have an asterisks added without knowing exactly how many other teams were also doing illegal things to gain a competitive advantage...my gut tells me this isn't an isolated incident and thus I have a very hard time s***ing all over one team.
  12. If he returns to his 2017-18 form, you're going to be a lot more than 'cool' with this deal.
  13. I guess we'll see. His walk rate was good last year, but was in the 6% range in 2018, which isn't good.
  14. I mean outside of 2017, he's about a 110 wRC+ guy with OK defense in LF. I don't see what the big fuss over him is. I'm not even sure he's a significant upgrade over Grichuk or Gurriel for me. I'd rather target a CFers and flank him with those 2 - letting Teo platoon at 1st and DH with Fisher as our 4th OFer.
  15. f*** - where's the down vote button?
  16. Isn't Iglesias going to fall into Galvis territory? He'll want to go somewhere he's a starter because he thinks he's a starter even though he's really a fringe starter? I mean Iglesias would be a great add, but Cesar just got $6.5M - won't Iglesias get something similar? Do we want to pay him that much to be our backup IF? I mean maybe we do.
  17. The free agent SS options remaining are horrendous.
  18. Except his wRC+ v. LHP was 67 in 2018 (151 in 2019). I like the concept though.
  19. I guess. Dickerson isn't a massive hack in LF though. I believe his defense suffered last year due to a foot injury? But he was a positive in 2018 at least.
  20. Yeah but Wil Myers f***ing sucks. Price is still good.
  21. I mean that REALLY depends on the cost. If EE is 1 year $10M, I'd probably be good with Castellanos at 3 years $45M or something. I'd pay more to get a young hitter entering his prime years over the risk that EE falls off a cliff. But if it takes 5 years $100M for Castellanos - I'd rather sign EE and then go year by year ala Ortiz Keep in mind that EE was still a better hitter than Castellanos last year. Either way - I'm not super keen on signing guys with little to no defensive value or versatility. Still think Corey Dickerson should be targeted.
  22. I'm just so happy we can somewhat eliminate the narrative that the Jays won't spend money and that nobody will sign in TO.
  23. Seriously?
  24. I'd honestly love to sign all 5 of those pitchers...
  25. How do we add Haniger? What's he cost us?
