    Is it fair to criticize this? How often would you expect a GM/FO to correctly gauge the market? This might be as much as the FO establishing a reputation of not playing games, sticking to their guns and making decisive moves based on their internal evaluations. They offered EE a very good contract and gave him an ultimatum. He decided to play games and lost. If they stick to their guns then the next guy might think twice about calling their bluff.

    Are you picking on my English?

    Well that went way over your head...

    25 lbs of muscle baby. Hopefully Greene adds 30 lbs of muscle and rockets up the prospect list!

    Spending extra money on overpriced seed, which may or may not product higher yield (as factors such as weather significantly affect yield more than the seed) may hurt you in the long run. Also - buying the fancy combine (which will take you 4-5 years to pay off) may also backfire if you're seeder breaks down. I think it all depends what you spend it on (doesn't it always?). I'm all for the Jays spending more - as long as they are smart with it. Don't just spend to say you spent.

    BBBB is still banned yet they let you out of your pen? BBBB drives me nuts, but wtf?

    IMO that would be like a farmer going out and buying a bunch of brand new equipment after a record year. It's a pretty short-sighted business approach. I expect a mild increase in payroll, but I don't think you drive an extra $60M into the team simply because you were success in 2 of the past 20 years.

    If only it was 2007 (when the world was much less politically correct) - I could fify. These days - I'll just keep my yap shut.

    It's his new gig.

    He's happy because he doesn't want EE at 4 years $80M. I thought that was pretty obvious. It appears nobody else in baseball does either, so it's not an uncommon opinion. High AAV + long duration for an aging player is risky business. Most are much more comfortable with Jose on a 1 year deal (some with a 2 year deal).

    I meant women (and politicians) like to play stupid psychological games...

    I'm all over it. Grilli gets extra points from me for his impeccable dad bod. http://i.imgur.com/XG5VKFU.gif

    Note to Edwin's agent. Don't play f***ing games. We aren't women or politicians, we're a major league baseball team and we have no time for your nonsense.

    There's a story on the Score app "6 bold trades we want to see this offseason" It suggests McCutchen to Toronto - noting they may have to give up major-league, long-term controllable pieces like Dalton Pompey and Joe Biagini. Where the F do we sign up for that? It also suggests Profar for Puig....which actually makes a lot of sense. Odd article.
  15. Brownie19
    Interesting - although I suspect Pittsburgh could create a package based around Glasnow and a couple lesser prospects to land Quintana, while dealing McCutchen separately for a better haul.

    2018 BJMB Hottest Jay Winner - Matt Dermody. He reminds me of Scott Downs with the flow from the left side.

    I see you continue to troll (or just truly can't read/comprehend the conversation).
  18. Brownie19
    I'll bite troll. You're oblivious to the fact the Jays have offered EE more than any other team to date.
  19. Brownie19
    I love how the link you included shows Texas is at about $130M... Last I saw, I thought Texas was at about $165M or something. They have 1st and DH open (with Gallo & Profar pencilled in right now).
  20. Brownie19
    Are you trying to be a troll now? Is this your new gig around here? ffs.

    I also have a Lawrie jersey I got for like $30 off some random Chinese website. I just wear a Jay's t-shirt and cap to the games these days. I'm not sure I'll ever buy another jersey to be honest. I think grown men look kinda weird in them. That said - I do wear my Longoria jersey to spring training (parents are in Port Charlotte where TB's resides).
  22. Brownie19
    Texas seems like such a logical place for EE at this point.

    I once brought a David Cooper autographed baseball to Tinnish's Christmas party as a secret santa gift. AA and other Jays scouts were there. Nobody could guess it was Cooper.

    Upper deck cards were the best when I was a kid.

    Grandy is an excellent target if the price is right.
