  1. Is Acuna's long term position LF?
  2. His base running and defensive value, coupled with his good plate discipline and contact skills certainly give him a fighting chance (then again - the same could have been said for Ellsbury). This is his age 26 season. He probably needs to average 5 WAR per year over the next 10 to reach 70 WAR. That should get him in. If he can stay in the 6-8 WAR range for the next 3 years (27 - 29) he'll have a good chance.
  3. Giles looked nasty tonight. Gotta feel great for Jansen. How awesome would it be to see this guy develop into a good, young starting catcher?
  4. His wRC+ since returning from injury is like 210 or something (before tonight's game).
  5. IIRC - there was also some glimmer of hope that Ray Searage could turn Hutch's once promising career around. Ray couldn't.
  6. Here's a report from fangraph's on Touki and SRF https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/quick-look-toussaint-and-reid-foley/
  7. What did I start....but I mean if it's good enough for JD, it's good enough for me.
  8. Need another pizza day.
  9. And maybe lay off the Jackie Redmond....speaking of which - did everyone see her new assets?
  10. I don't think you should get caught up in what Jeff Blair and Steve Simmons think the Jays should do. Almost every reporter is just making s*** up to fill their time/column.
  11. Does he even get on a bus? He isn't making a start in AAA.
  12. That team looks awful (not like that will be our 2019 opening day roster anyway)
  13. I guess - but it's a good strategy that gives the team a better chance at winning. You should be able to avoid this situation with strong communication and a commitment to add the $20K onto his next contract or something.
  14. Interesting article from Fangraphs about hitting with backspin v. hitting it square. https://www.fangraphs.com/community/should-players-hit-with-backspin-the-data-might-surprise-you/
  15. Vlad was ranked 18th in MLB in value by Fangraphs. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-trade-value-11-to-20/ Lindor and Ramirez were #1 and #2.
  16. I'll settle on a slurve.
  17. Touki Toussaint is making his ML debut today. Remember when Dave f***ing Stewart traded him just to clear Arroyo's $9.5M contract? What an idiot. https://imgur.com/gallery/R5mMNnN That slider is nasty.
  18. Where next? KBO?
  19. I'll take 'Things I Didn't Expect' for $500 Alex
  20. Nice breakdown - a couple of names there I'd never heard of. Can anyone tell me about Travis Bergen? Great K/BB ratios this year as a lefty out of the pen...but he's 24 and in AA. Is he a hard thrower? We really could use a reliable lefty in our pen moving forward. Mayza's probably that guy, but it would be nice if we had a couple of options.
  21. 6 1/3 IP, 2 ER, 4 H, 3 BB, 8 K, 1 HR, 102 pitches
  22. Can we do more of these? That made my day.
